    Tim may be the least well-known person to have millions of dedicated, passionate followers. You either adore Tim or you've never heard of him. if you fall into the second group, you are missing out on a remarkable experience. Tim is a "polymath," meaning that he is good at many things. He is a playwright, a writer of television shows, a comedian, a singer, a brilliant pianist, a thoughtful and articulate atheist, an excellent actor, and a highly intelligent individual. He is a compassionate human being who believes in community service. He loves and is faithful to his wife. He adores his children, including one child on the autism spectrum. He doesn't smoke or do drugs but he does curse and he loves wine. He is one of a kind

    I'm from New York, and I'm ashamed of narrow minded people who can't appreciate the genius of this man. His texts are brilliant, his music blows your mind. Fantastic musician and philosopher. I hope we'll have venues for "cancelled" artists so that the public see at last who is really in and who is out. I watched Tim is back concert in Albert hall yesterday. What a gift! I'd run to see next show. Mr Minchin I love you!

    Tim used to say he was not a lefty or a rightist. It felt to me he took pride in that, which IMHO is indeed something to be quite proud of, specially in this day and age. That, to me, was highlighted in his work of art The Fence. But alas, here we are and he felt like he had to the take the Eggshells Road. Such a huge loss for all of us.

    The song Hope in Ground Hog Day struck such a chord with me (as do so many Tim Minchin songs) in when I was severely depressed and suicidal (years later I am in a much happier and brighter place) with Phil standing there singing about hope whilst trying to end his life and how all the - kind of failed in that he was back to life the next day- suicides were the opposite to what he’s singing about on never giving up hope. To me it made me remember when I would have well meaning people telling me to not give up hope, when I had no hope left to keep and not give up. That telling someone who is suicidal not to give up is probably one of the worst and annoying things you can tell them.
    Another song of Tim’s that the lyrics resonated with me was Quiet from Matilda. Both as a woman with autism but also one who suddenly went deaf as an adult the lyrics work for me both ways. Both in people being hard to understand sometimes and my brain working differently but also the people who shout at me thinking it will help me ‘hear them’ when to me they’re just quiet and making it harder to lip read.
    Finally a none musical song of his that really hit home was Perfect, specifically the body verse. I hated my body for years and blamed it for failing me in both me being unable to stand or walk and be chronically ill but also becoming deaf too. Those lyrics made me see and remind me often that my body is still there keeping me alive and doing a good job. I love the song so much I’m about to get a tattoo of some of the lyrics. Tim’s ways with words are just amazing, even in BSL they are beautiful and so poetic. Plus the has songs for every feeling and emotion. I wish I had even half his brains in the way with words he has. He also gives amazing hugs!

Saw it four times on Broadway, and I wish I could have gone back at least one more time before it closed...

    Love the man in all I've seen him do but yet it's such a shame to hear the words "gave up comedy" and gave up satire, as I .. well, I couldn't help but always feel like he was absolutely speaking my language while doing it. Exactly the way I always turn bad things into comedical through sarcasm or satire (which inspired my long time username), as it just so effectively gives criticism towards bad things, but also takes the edge off where you can find humor in it and that always leaves you elated about what otherwise can cause anxiety. So with the world just getting crazier, it would have been such a nice thing to have Tim write more new material of satire in a world that is.. almost deprived of satire because in parts it's impossible to even distinguish real absurdity of the world from satire...? Though maybe that's what'd make it so difficult now.
    Still, I'll definitely miss his stage comedy tours and all that... Also had planned on travelling to the UK last year for my birthday, but my social anxiety won and I didn't dare do it, so I hope he will at least keep on with some tours of the old material if not writing anything new, so some day I could witness his show when I'm.... HOPEFULLY... better.
    Still, thank you to Tim. He has given me a lot and I've tried to give him my measly dollars ordering his blurays in return lol.

    Sir, don't feel bad about privilege. No one should.
    The important thing is what you do in your life, what you give to others, if you're empathetic and kind.
    This is important because you can't gaslight your own feelings. If you feel like you're struggling, if you feel down and isolated, you should pay attention and take care of yourself.
    In the big picture your struggles might not be as hard or harder than the struggles from someone born in a very poor condition in a miserable country, for example, one of the hundreds of thousands of examples I could give. But I should argue that your life matter to you. And also you cannot feel responsibility for all the problems in the world

    The UK’s Peppa Pig is the biggest kids cartoon in the country, but when the creators issued the following messages, it drew the ire of parents who point out that it is a parent’s choice whether or not to introduce their children to the concept of homosexuality and other sexual or gender identity lifestyles.

    Frustratingly interrupted by the interviewer's questions, and editing. No thought seemed to be able to be followed far before being cut short prematurely.
    In an absurdly limited time to answer these deep, broad, and personal questions, it would have been a more productive use of time to ask fewer questions, for a more complete, contextualised, and subjectively accurate answer. With this severely curtailed format, we don't know what was cut so short it was a misrepresentation of what Minchin wanted to say.

    An illegal migrant from Africa who was ‘already known to police’ and under deportation orders was arrested for stabbing a bus driver in France this week, according to reports.
    The disturbing incident unfolded at around 7 p.m. on Monday evening in Athis-Mons, a commune in the Paris suburbs.

      What he is commenting on here has nothing to do with covid. On top of his musical not surviving on broadway (despite it being well received), he did 4 years of hard work on an animated movie which got canned at the last hurdle simply because the studio got bought out and the project wasn't part of the new owner's plans. That's enough to make someone rather bitter, but like he says in the grand scheme of things he can't complain about that when there are people struggling to feed themselves.

    I really hope he didn't quit doing satire becaue of his 'lefty' friends. If so, he allowed those whose ideas he skewered to win. There is nothing remotely left-wing about the conception of white privilege, it is a thoroughly reactionary term, bandied about by reactionaries whose philosophy rests on a rejection of Marxism, of the revolutionary role of the working class, while making common cause philosophically with those on the extreme right. The notion comes from post-modernism, a completely subjective and irrational world outlook, that states that ALL narratives have validity. These were the same forces that were calling for Julian Assange to be extradited to Sweden, support the Ukrainian war and the deaths of over 500,000, (and however many more it takes), supported right-wing, imperialist revolution led by Moslem fundamentalists on the CIA payroll. The same people who were tearing down statues of Jefferson and Lincoln, while claiming that the American Revolutionaries were on the wrong side of history, that the British were the side of righteousness. Seriously, to think that the most talented satirist of the last 50 years went quietly into that good night because he was frightened of the reaction of the right-wing milieu in which socialized is very sad.

      Tim got the shiny veneers in his late 20's. The cheeks tend to inflate a bit when he's gained a bit of weight. His weight goes up and down depending on whether he's performing in a TV show or movie. Check out his concert tour with Heritage Orchestra versus his performance as Lucky in the TV show Upright. He's never had a very wrinkly forehead, though. Just some thoughts.

    Minchin was a fantastic creator when insecure and trying desperately to make it. Then his rise, reducing his insecurities, stole his deeper talents. So, a lot like David Grey, Don McLean and countless other creators who did their only superb work as unknown, borderline depressed wannabes with abitta the Devil-may-care attitude.
    Tim always wanted to be a rock star but clearly would never cut it. He was awful as Judas in Jesus Christ Superstar - he single handedly ruined that production due to not having an appropriate voice. Matilda is a simply awful musical.
    But I love Tim, he's forever redeemed by his two early beat poems, Storm and Mitsubishi Colt.

      Just FYI Tim has never been insecure!! You know he is exceptionally extroverted right and the self deprecating Tim was a pure act? He changed his personality on stage to achieve his success, he also chemically straightened his curly hair, wore heavy eye make up, contacts and got rid of his shoes. Nothing about his comedy stage persona was ever real. It was all carefully staged , every last bit of it. Oh and I strongly disagree about his Judas too and he is maybe the only Judas I have ever seen who truly understood the character.
