Inside me there are two wolves

Lifelong dream to attend the Home Run Derby, finally made possible by our Anonymous Benevolent Ticket Angel! Rooting for a 2018 rematch with a Schwarber victory (just to even things out) but mostly rooting for a multitude of monstrous dingers!

View from my seat, including Phillies legend, hero of the last two nights, and home run larcenist, Mr. Derek Hill. What a catch!!!

Life & work have been a LOT recently, but at long last I am seeing my Phillies live and in person and it is also Pride Night. Happy Pride! Happy baseball! Battle of the Zack(ch)s! Phillies already up! Everything is momentarily perfect.

At the No Kings March in New York City today! Nothing says "King" like having money to kill innocent civilians both distant and domestically, but not enough money to provide health care, education, or social services. All at great personal profit! #nokings

Happy Opening Day to all who celebrate, from me in my Phillies jacket on the streets of New York! LET'S GO PHILLIES!

Thank you so much to HERO @benlindbergh.bsky.social for shouting out Take Me In to the Ballgame on Effectively Wild! Listen in to him diagnosing the lack of hustle on Charlie Brown's team. Why do they yell at him when they're the ones making their pitcher field the ball? (IDEALLY DON'T DO THAT)

HEARTLAND is OUT! @keithob.bsky.social 's account of Larry Bird & the 1979 ISU Sycamores is gripping, deep...and sometimes funny. O'Brien's writing glides between the lyrical, the heart-pounding, & the wry. I highlighted some things on the pdf that made me chuckle as I prepped for the audiobook!

It took me entirely too long to get to @hmwendt.bsky.social's HEADING NORTH -- but don't make the same mistake. I just finished and my only criticism is that I wished there were more of it. I wish I was still reading it. It shows that gorgeous prose and heart-pounding moments can go hand-in-hand.

It's been a blast recording @keithob.bsky.social's HEARTLAND, about Larry Bird & the 1979 Indiana State Sycamores -- a Cinderella season held aloft by more miracles than any fairy godmother could give. And maybe the biggest miracle of that season was...it saved basketball? Out 3/3! Pre-order now!

At the rally & march in NYC in solidarity with the people of Minnesota standing up for their neighbors against ICE! New Yorkers (state) can call their reps & ask them to pass the New York for All Act. New Yorkers (city) can call 229.304.8720 if you see ICE! #ICEoutforgood #meltICE

If you're in the market for a different kind of holiday fare, may I recommend COMING OUT POLYAMOROUS FOR THANKSGIVING, which I star in and also co-wrote/adapted from Alex Alberto’s book ENTWINED. The film won a number of awards on the festival circuit, and is now on YouTube! youtu.be/IIpSC2efS-Q?...

Thrilled to be a part of this phenomenal thriller! THE HOUSEMAID is in theaters now -- based on the book by brilliant best-selling author Frieda McFadden with a script from my TOTAL HERO Rebecca Sonnenshine, this movie was directed by the delightful genius and also TOTAL HERO Paul Feig.

Feeling so moved today, wanted to post a couple of favorite moments from Zohran Mamdani's acceptance speech! It's absurd that concepts like affordable housing, affordable health care, child care, and transportation have been branded as "extreme and dangerous" in this country.

Forgot to post our early voting selfie from like nine days ago because life has been an occasionally entertaining firehouse, but today is the day to VOTE, NYC! So happy to get the chance to vote for Zohran Mamdani. Let's just TRY to inject a little more socialism into our capitalism, shall we?

Here at the Awards Ceremony at FilmQuest! DAMNED IF YOU DO was nominated for eight awards, including Best Screenplay for @ericgilde.bsky.social and I! We are exhausted and giddy and delighting in every moment with the best genre film nerd vibes! Love you, FilmQuest! #scriptsky #filmsky

FilmQuest is hands down the most fun film festival I have ever attended. The community is incredibly warm, fun, & inviting! Thanks to Eric for this pic of me delivering the WINNING pitch on behalf of my team in a 15-min film concept competition! (One of our co-directors' teams also won.)

Things are more & more bleak these days, but I don't want to lose all celebration because of it. @ericgilde.bsky.social & I are having The Time of My Life at FilmQuest, where the film we wrote, DAMNED IF YOU DO, is screening TONIGHT! (Pictured is us on our first night here.) #scriptsky #filmsky

A few shots from No Kings/Love America march in Times Square, NYC (before running off to do two shows today)! Here because we believe in the ideals upon which this country was founded. By the people and for the people, not by the billionaires for the billionaires! #nokings

DAMNED IF YOU DO is premiering TONIGHT at Screamfest LA! Written by @ericgilde.bsky.social & I, directed by Jake Rubin & Evan Metzold, and starring Kate Siegel, Harvey Guillen, Paulo Costanzo, Ginger Gonzaga, Beth Dover, Ed Weeks, Molly Bernard, & other heroes! If you're in LA, come through!

Please enjoy these pictures of @ericgilde.bsky.social, @kathleenafoster1.bsky.social and I at the Kyle Schwarber four-homer game singing "High Hopes," a game that, incidentally, Aaron Nola also started. LET’S GO PHILLIES!

Brand new sign for today! Even with Harrison Bader out for the game I am still ready to say "What a gift" to every Phillies hit and every Phillies pitcher strikeout! What a gift/gipht to be here to cheer my boys on for another NLDS! Here with mom & pals Matt & Max! We miss you @moonalice.com!

Update from the first inning of the NLDS: at least I have already gotten to use my LADIES LOVE PLATE DISCIPLINE and DEFENSIVE SUPERSTAR NICK CASTELLANOS signs LET'S GO PHILLIES!!!

It's been a minute since I was in a play while the Phillies are in the playoffs, but rocking two layers of Phillies stuff between my two shows today. Will be pausing my feed of the game while I do the play and resuming after it's over -- so will learn the outcome belatedly. But LET’S GO PHILLIES!

Self-portrait on the subway with 1/2 of the huge beautiful plant basket from my mom, having opened the world premiere of a play, won both of my fantasy baseball leagues, and looking forward to whomever the Phillies will face in the NLDS

Apologies for being quieter on Phillies applause, but I have been very busy for the past month rehearsing a brand-new play! We open today after preview performances this past week. If you're near Stony Point, NY, come see the world premiere of FLAWLESS, by John J. Wooten, through Oct 19! #theatersky

In unrelated news, Sierra Farrell is the Coolest Human Alive

Kyle Schwarber Four Home Run Game Dance! Plus also homers from JT, Bryce & Kepler, Harri Bader a HR shy of the cycle. Everybody hits for 19 R! And I am delighted to see Aaron Nola again, very solid after 1st inning! What a birthday game for my mom!

I made this card for my mom for her birthday (which is today, happy birthday mama!) and I am holding my mom's birthday as at least ~ 7% responsible for Kyle Schwarber hitting three Schwarbombs this eve

"Oh Aaron Nola, I have missed your curveball and backdoor two-seamer (and sometimes frontdoor two-seamer to lefties) and your HAVAA-optimized elevated fastball and your changeup's lovely armside fade and your cutter playing off the two-seam's movement in the same quadrant" - Keats
