I, for instance, am as dark as it´s possible and that´s no swagger pimp stuff, just how I roll.

It seems to me that if we've ever needed kindness, we need it now. And I don't think there's any human on Earth who couldn't use a bit more kindness or comfort or hope or a healing. It was lovely to read from people's messages during the pandemic about the book and I hope that film can do something similar in this time." This to me is not twee.
