The Riot Girl Turned Laugh Riot: Movies + TV: GQ Got a girl crush on: Carrie Brownstein “In these liberal cities, you have these people who espouse to be very inclusive, but in order to be included, you have to follow these rules. And then the rules are really hard to follow. The rules are really esoteric. So you’re trying to feel included and to be good, but all of a sudden you’re so frustrated by it that you turn into a contrarian. I feel that way all the time here, where it’s like, of course I want to shop at your local business—but I can go to Target and buy everything. I think that’s an internal conflict that a lot of these characters feel. They’re really trying to walk the walk, but they hit these stumbling blocks and they’re so mad at themselves for not being able to be the person they thought they were going to be.” - Carrie Brownstein Portlandia is going to be awesome.
