speaking as someone who has never felt themselves to be a strong logician, I've come to believe that most people wildly misapprehend what constitutes 'logic'

generally, being very logical means you keep arguing and talking until the other person gives up or leaves

there was a period in my past where my ways were definitely very "logical," and in retrospect, it was very much based in a lack of self-confidence and inability to deal with ambiguity

i love this one-two punch, edited somewhat:
I was just reading an AVClub feature Jimmi Simpson couldn't stop talking about The Patriot (which he's on?).Who is the most underrated person in your industry right now?JS: Underrated is a little too specific. I would say underexposed is Steven Conrad. He’s a writer-director-creator. He’s been writing for years and years very successfully—Pursuit Of Happyness was him—a bunch of cool movies. He did Walter Mitty. But he started creating television recently, and he created a show for Amazon called Patriot, which I’d literally never heard of until I read the script for Perpetual Grace, which is his show that I’m on now. So I read the script for Perpetual Grace—was floored. One of the best scripts I’ve ever read. And I couldn’t wait to meet the man, the men: Bruce Terris and Steve Conrad both wrote Perpetual Grace. They said to watch Patriot first. I’m like, “The Mel Gibson movie?” And then I find out, no, it’s a series on Amazon.And I watch it, and I’m just floored. It’s visionary. Not just the writing, the execution. It’s like your favorite directors of all time, like Kubrick, and Paul Thomas Anderson, and Michel Gondry, who have these innate abilities to communicate their style so completely, but somehow it feels effortless. You don’t feel like you’re being pushed to just absorb something. It feels like you’re watching a piece of art. And it connects to each person differently.And so you can’t ask a critic about him who’s not over the moon about Steve Conrad, calling him the next phase in television creators. But, in general, most folks—the public—don’t know about him as much as they should. Luckily, I’ve become very close friends with him, and creative partners to a degree, and so I’m going to keep doing whatever I can to keep showing people how amazing Steven Conrad is. He’s more amazing than I’ll ever be, so just being next to a genius like that is good for me. And I feel lucky. And I think other people should feel as lucky as I do, just by getting to see his stuff.― Josh in Chicago, Monday, August 12, 2019 8:42 PMOh, wait, the show was just canceled?― Josh in Chicago, Monday, August 12, 2019 8:44 PM
