    @harib_murshidi@mastodon.social @patrickhadfield@mastodon.scot Actors need to pick one as their stage name - or.a variant such as Kris. The rest of us get called both, sometimes after asking, sometimes not. Maybe same for them in private. But if you insist on Chris there's Rock, O'Donnell and more.

  • @harib_murshidi@mastodon.social @dearlove@mathstodon.xyz @patrickhadfield@mastodon.scot it would be hard for Christopher Lee or Christopher Plummer to star in a film made today. I hope their estates won't sell their AI likeness, film necromancy like Peter Cushing in "Rogue One" is deeply unsettling. Chris can be a woman's name too, but I doubt an actress over 60 named Chris would get many calls notwhitstanding.

    @harib_murshidi@mastodon.social @dearlove@mathstodon.xyz @patrickhadfield@mastodon.scot The article counts Christian Friedel, so presumably they would also count Christophers in order to make the headline snappier than 'an actor whose name begins with Chris'.
