Adam Driver strived to make fundraising for AITAF ‘meaningful’
In 2018, the Star Wars actor spoke about his work with AITAF to Vulture. The actor admitted fundraising made him uncomfortable, but he understood the necessity of it, especially running a non-profit.
“I’m starting to get more comfortable with that idea because we’re raising money not only for a military non-profit but a performing arts non-profit,” he said. “I don’t want people to give us money for me. I want to cultivate donors that we’ll have a lasting relationship with. It’s not just, ‘Give me a check and we’ll keep this as impersonal as possible.’ I’m trying to make things meaningful.”
Despite Driver’s willingness to fundraise for the now-dissolving organization, the actor never let his celebrity influence people’s generosity. For example, when someone offered him $100,000 to pose with their child, who was a “big Star Wars fan,” Driver hesitated.
“Is there nobody that is just philanthropic for the sake of it?” he wondered. “Is there always some picture with your kid?” Still, he understood the fine line between setting those boundaries and saying “no” to a fan.
“Say, ‘No,’ and you’ve p***ed somebody off,” he continued. “It has to be the right thing or it can feel disgusting. Some people are good with being like, ‘It feels uncomfortable but imagine what you can do with that money.'”

When I was teaching, a boy around 8, who wasn't my student came to me and asked if I would draw the butterfly I had used to decorate a mask I had created in my class. He handed me his notebook and carefully picked a page and a space and told me to draw it there. He watched me draw it and when I was done he smiled and said "I really like butterflies. Everyone thinks it's girly, but how can it be girly if its a bug and liking bugs is suppose to be a boy thing?" I told him. "Fun people like bugs, all kinds of bugs. I like moths and stick bugs. And people think both are creepy and gross and girls shouldn't like them. Same thing with rocks and crystals."
And he lit up going "yeahhh! Crystals are just shiny rocks that were cut out of not shiny rocks! People are stupid, just let people like what they like! My favorite butterfly is the admiral butterfly. Do you have a favorite?"
I told him, "yeah. The American copper, its wings are orange and has black square spots and looks look like it belongs in a video game" showed in a picture and he did that boys do that long drawn out "coooooooooooooool!"

I'm re-reading the Discworld series for reasons, and honestly the most relatable part of reading these as an adult is how many of the protagonists start out being tired, used to their little routine and vaguely disgruntled by the interruption of the Plot. Sam Vimes wants to lie drunk in a gutter and absolutely doesn't want to be arresting dragons. Rincewind is yanked into every situation he's ever encountered, though he'd much rather be lying in a gutter too. (Minus the alcohol. Plus regretting everything he's ever done said witnessed or even heard about fourth-hand in his whole life.) Granny Weatherwax is deeply suspicious of foreign parts and that includes the next town over; Nanny has leaned into the armor of "nothing ever happens to jolly grannies who terrorize their daughters-in-law and make Saucy Jokes"
Only the young people don't seem to have picked up on this---and that's fortunate, because someone has to run around making things happen, if only so Vimes and Granny and Rincewind have a reason to get up (complaining bitterly the whole time) and put it all to rights. Without Carrot, Margrat, Eric, etc. these characters don't have that reason; they're likely to stay in the metaphorical gutter and keep wondering where it all went wrong or why anything has to change.
............well, that's not quite true. You get the sense that Vetinari knows how much certain people hate the Plot. And as the person sitting behind the metaphorical lighting board of Ankh-Morpork, he takes no small pleasure in forcing the Plot-haters specifically to stand up, and say some lines.

I think it's so interesting that when the Night Nurse goes through Charles' trauma, she does see him being attacked by the other boys, sees him running alone through the night, but she never sees him dying. That only comes later, when she is searching for love.
And there is no fear in that memory, even if there is pain, there is just Edwin and the light he is bringing, metaphorically and physically, into Charles' life, there is smiling and joking and listening to stories. There is Edwin.
So, yeah, I don't think dying was a bad experience for Charles. Not a good one, per se, but one that led to the best thing in his existence.

Danny: Hey, I need you to be my boyfriend for a week.
Jason: What.
Danny: My parents are coming over and I've apparently accidentally talked about a partner more than once and only realized when they said they wanted to meet them.
Jason, currently still solidifying his power as a Crime Lord: Excuse me?
Danny: Let me get this out of the way, I do not consider you at all a person of romantical interest and a friend. But I need you to act as my partner for only a week until my parents go on their merry way over to my sister, okay?
Jason: Is there, quite literally, no one else to ask this?
Danny: You're my only friend who lives in Gotham, plus we share the same apartment.
Jason: That's almost sad.
Danny: You in?
Jason: Sure, why not.
===
Maddie: Danny, honey.
Danny: Yes mom?
Maddie: I don't mean to.... question, who you choose as your parent but. Well, me and your father was just wandering if he was a... [Maddie gestures with her hand] you know, one of those.
Danny, uncomprehendingly staring at his mother's hand: What.
Maddie: Oh dear, how do I bring this up. You know, one of those.
Danny: Mother I need more context.
Jack: If your boyfriend a crime lord!?
Maddie: Jack!
Jack: What? Beating around the bush wasn't helping!
Danny: Say WHAT?
===
Danny: Hey dude, thanks for helping with this even though you didn't need to!
Jason: No problem, I wasn't doing anything too [Crime Lord activities flash through his mind] important.
Danny: Can you believe my parents thought you were a crime lord though? Weird am I right?
Jason:
Danny: Jason. You are scaring me.
Jason: Haha, yea that's weird isn't it?
Danny: Jason.
Jason: Well, I have to leave now to attend to my totally real and totally not crime related job at the ice cream shop.
Danny: [Squints eyes]
Jason: [Internally sweating bullets]
Danny: Suuuuure, bring me back some ice cream though.
Jason: [Thumbs up and leaves]
