If you're writing a book set in rural Scotland and all your characters go by their given names, I hate to break it to ya, but you're doing your readers a disservice.
Here's some examples of real people all from one village around 1900-1930: 🧵

On my first show as a cast member on SNL - I was lucky to have guest Host Sigourney Weaver and Phil Hartman reacting hilariously to my lunacy.

This is my friend Reggie Bibbs. Reggie is the kindest and most loving person I have ever met. His face is disfigured from a rare genetic condition called ‘Neurofibromatosis.’
After many years of never leaving his bedroom, out of shame and embarrassment, Reggie finally summoned enough courage to face his fears and raise awareness of this disorder.
He has incurred tremendous challenges over the past years, including the loss of his mother and the foreclosure of their family home. Despite these hardships, Reggie has maintained an extraordinary spirit and has always believed that something better was coming.
My humble request is for you to open your heart and consider supporting Reggie in raising funds through a GoFundMe account. These funds would be to cover his monthly rent, utilities, and essential expenses for the next five years.
Any contribution, no matter how small, will make such a meaningful difference in Reggie's life and help him reach his $133,000.00 goal.. Thank you so much.

85 years ago on 8 July 1934, one of a kind comic writer and actor Marty Feldman was born. Working alongside such luminaries as @JohnCleese, @EricIdle, @TimBrookeTaylor, @MelBrooks, Spike Milligan & Gene Wilder, he cemented his legacy in the world of television and film comedy.
Holy cow this is good.
Jon Stewart easily lures a pro-gun/anti-drag queen Republican into a trap…and then blasts him over his blatant, shameless hypocrisy.
@ClareKnitter @notcapnamerica Real Men™️ can’t look in mirrors. It’s gay look into the eyes of another man even remotely. Even if it’s your reflection.
