Once you #watch The #Noots, you will #never #look at #science the same way ever again. Does one look at science? What is science? Science. Say it a few times until your #mouth is #numb. Science! Say it like Dr. #Frankenstein. You just get a taste of The Noots for now. It’s #dark. It’s #comedy. @humorhousecomedy
“Mr. Mau, you should be an actor.” “Are you an actor?”
“Why aren’t you an actor?”
“You shouldn’t be teaching. You should be in Hollywood.”
Every year for the past 20 years, students and colleagues alike would, in an attempt to be supportive, push the knife in deeper. How does one respond to such kind words? “Yeah, I should be, but here I am with you. So when the dragon tells Grendel...”
I love teaching. I hate teaching. I love teaching.
This photo by @nightmindphoto (styled by @mococolex ) remind me of myself in the classroom. I’m smiling but biting my thumbs; it’s a grin and a grimace.

When I abruptly stopped modeling and acting in 1994, I took a path that eventually filled me with regret and resentment. I have led a good life, though, and I expect hundreds if not thousands of lives have benefitted from my influence. I am where and who I am today because of the decision of an 18-year-old. I struggle with letting go, but as I work to build a different version of my life, I am trying to be mindful of that. This photo, styled by @mococolex and crafted by @nightmindphoto , depicts a flawed, delicate, sensitive man. Yep, that’s who I am.

Light and Dark. Another in the @nightmindphoto series. Full disclosure: when I’m driving alone, I imagine being interviewed by @marcmaron on WTF. I’m famous by then, and I tell Marc stories about when I was a teacher and trying to transition into acting full time. I feel like Jimmy Rabbitte in Roddy Doyle’s The Commitments interviewing himself in the bathtub.
