grrm would say (if he was a Steelers fan) is magical and full of joy. The Steelers won today, in spite of the fact that me wearing my Steelers shirt on game day is usually a jinx. I am made ridiculously happy over this.
On the other hand, RDJ didn't get the Golden Globe for best actor for his role in Tropic Thunder, losing to Heath Ledger, which, I suppose, was a given, considering the circumstances. Alas. Personally (and this isn't my bias talking, really), I think Robert was robbed. Heath was great in his role as the Joker, but, you know, psychopaths are a dime a dozen and I'm not sure that it was really a "nuanced" role. Robert, on the other hand...
Well. Show me another white American actor who could have pulled off playing an Aussie actor playing an African American who then disguises himself as a Vietnamese farmer. Convincingly, and without being offensive. Even though it was a comedy, I think it was a more complex role. YMMV, of course.
In other news, I'm about 2/3 of the way through another readthrough of the not!kkbb/im thing. Gawd, I love these characters. Oh, not!Harry. I just need to figure out where I can stick all the corporate bullshit so it makes sense within the narrative so my ending is tighter and not!Tony has more to lose than he did in the first draft.
