For film and television, it's interesting how fans feel that their particular ways of manifesting their affections are the correct ones. It's not just about being a fan, it's about how you perform your fandom. That's always been interesting to me.

There was a clarity to the Nineties. It was pre-9/11, before that anxiety kicked in that exists right now about the financial crisis or terrorism. We were all just going to move forward into the millennium and everything was always going to get better. Then, whoops, that didn't happen.

When I'm cynical, I seek out bands that are fully participating and trying to push something forward. Or I can just start playing music again - which is happening with a new project. But I think it's always a challenge to overcome cynicism and not get bogged down by a sense of nostalgia. That can be such a stifling feeling.

I've never been in another kind of midlife crisis. I don't know what it feels like when you're through that, but I definitely feel that changing a few things, like being on a different label and having things kind of settle back into a sense of normality, helps to feel grounded.
Carrie Brownstein
I think proteins are really good for your brain. And your brain is where comedy comes from.
Carrie Brownstein
As a kid, before I got into music, I did all the drama classes, went to theater camp in the summers, so it wasn't totally a foreign world.

The fact that people go to Portland to visit a tiny feminist bookstore-no matter what the impetus is for them getting there-the fact that they go in there and look around and shop for books or stationery or whatever, is a major source of pride for me.

I've learned to really enjoy video games. It's really toxic to have in your house, because it's really distracting.
Carrie Brownstein
It wasn't just like, I want to make a record that sounds like classic rock at all. It was more like, I want to make a record that is a little more unsettling and maybe isn't as easily understood now. That just seemed more important, like, for me to make as an artist, than it was to make something to make people feel safe right away.

I think you should be prepared for a green-screen CGI at all times.
