“I seem to be safer in my life when I’m working, it just makes things better.” A very telling & sad comment after seeing the interviews and previews for Honey Boy.

[WitchChangkyun]

Aw, I miss this Shia. No matter what happens, I still love Shia for his great role in Even Stevens. That show was my childhood.
