One of my managers: *pats me on the back*
Me: *slaps hand away* Quit touching me!
Manager: I’m letting you know that things are going to be okay! I’m creating a bridge of empathy! Can you feel it?
Me: … Does it feel like nausea?
PROMOTION PLEASE.

INTERVIEWER: Give me one of your purely satisfying moments.
TINA FEY: The first thing that comes to mind is a more recent one, when Amy Poehler and I were in the airport last week in Toronto and we were getting hassled by this middle-aged businessman who was doing that thing that middle-aged businessmen do, being rude. And then Amy, in the middle of the airport, screamed, “Fuck you, you fuckin’ dick, you fuckin’ rich asshole.” And it was so satisfying—it was immediate release.— GQ Magazine, February 2004 (x)
TINA FEY: We went to Toronto one time on this flight— we were making Mean Girls— and me and Ana Gastayer and Amy Poehler were all on this flight and we got off and this businessman just like, pushed passed Amy and she was just like “Hey, what’s up? You should say you’re sorry.” And he was like, “You should say you’re sorry for being in my way,” being really rude to her. And I saw her little Irish brain snap, and she just like looked up and she took this breath and she was just like— well, yeah. She just unleashed on this guy, and the dude literally ran away. He was like a 50-year old businessman and he ran away.

I wrote this three months ago when I was really sad.
Mental health is a really hard thing to talk about. I am more afraid to talk about my depression than I am to post a picture of myself naked on the internet. Naked, I can justify to people, I can explain and defend it to…
Everyone should read this and take it in and think about it and let it settle within you. I can guarantee you that you have someone if not multiple people in your life that feel exactly like this. They feel overwhelmed with sadness to the point where it feels as though it lives within them. They feel it every single day and they don’t talk about it. They walk around carrying this giant thing that crushes them from the inside and no one knows. No one notices and no one helps.
It is a blessing to get old. It is a blessing to find the time to do the things, to read the books, to listen to the music. … I have nothing now but praise for my life. I’m not unhappy. I cry a lot because I miss people. They die and I can’t stop them. They leave me and I love them more. … What I dread is the isolation. … There are so many beautiful things in the world which I will have to leave when I die, but I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready.
