Megan Amram: “Acting is just writing with your mouth!” Me: “Oh yeah? Then writing is just acting with your fingers!” So, Television Academy voters: who do YOU give the “Outstanding Actress” Emmy to? (Ended that sentence with a preposition cuz I’m not technically “a writer,” but rather act with my whole body. 😜 #emmys2018 #throwdown

And here is the full interview:

Television Academy members: 1 week of voting down, 1 more to go! If you have not submitted your ballot yet, it should look EXACTLY like this!!! 😜 ◼️👦🏻✅🙏🏼

Psyched to celebrate at the Emmys / Television Academy Performer’s Peer Group party tomorrow w/ not only my fellow #fycunderdogs, Miles Tagtmeyer, Melvin Jackson Jr. & Kelly Jenrette, but also the more usual suspects, my nominated pals, Darren Criss, Sarah Paulson, #josephfiennes, #lilytomlin, Finn Wittrock (pictured here), as well as Seth Meyers & Wyatt Cenac. Congrats too to my friends in the American Crime Story & American Horror Story #makeupdept: Eryn Krueger Mekash & Mike Mekash, #hairdept: Michelle Ceglia, #wardrobedept: Lou Eyrich, and of course, #creator: Ryan Murphy. 🙌🏼🏆 It’s an honor just to be nominated with you all!

I dunno, she definitely cared enough to have the parody I made (referenced in this article) struck from YouTube!

Gotta match the mic at AfterBuzz TV 💛

We were all jazz hands & complimentary colors at the GNEWS - Get All Your Gay In Just One Day. pre-tape at LATV today, w/ the guapos y divertidos, @alexanderisonair, @patrickgomezla & @enriquesapene. Air-date forthcoming! 💛📺🎉💜

Perhaps the coolest part of this #Emmy insanity was receiving this congratulatory email from my personal, end-all-be-all, DEMIGOD since I was 6, Lily Tomlin (or, as she spells it, “Lily Tomli”). How's that for a celebrity endorsement?! I will never wash my inbox again!

Wowwweeeee! The Tolucan Times just hooked me up with an entire half-page, inside-cover spread!! They say all press is good press, but this is really good! 🙏🏼

I just got this spectacular zit... and the PERFECT COVER-UP! #ivoted #didyou #forme #kiddingnotkidding #butseriously #pepperforpresident #whowantsasticker #emmys2018

#YAAAAAAS TODAY’S THE DAY!!!@televisionacad #getoutthevote #emmys #fyc @naomiwgrossman @ctrlaltdeleteshow #emmynaomiated

Went all the way to Russia, hoping to get them to rig another American election for me-- but alas, this year's Emmy race promises to be fair and free! Voting starts TODAY. 😬 HUGE THANKS to my peers in the Emmys / Television Academy for supporting me thus far. Now for just this one last ask... 🙏 (Photo taken immediately following a 17-hour flight.)

My “sister” from Argentina sent me this today. Taken 25 years ago in Valle de la Luna. THIS, to me, is a prize unto itself! Gracias, Jesi Fiameni! Los quiero mucho, pero mucho!!! 💚🇦🇷🏆😘

Hey Television Academy! Voting begins TOMORROW! Ready?! Let’s go!! GET OUT THE VOTE!!!

The implication that it’s just my first (and not my last) makes me very happy.

Television Academy: #Emmy voting starts Monday! Just a few more days of my idiocy! 🔥 #fyc Ctrl Alt Delete #emmys70

THIS LADY!!! Meet Meredith Thomas, the super-duper-go-getter-Robin-Hood-mastermind behind the @FYCUnderdogs2018. She saw a problem—little guys without big, studio budgets behind them getting squeezed out the Emmy race due to lack of opportunities/resources—and fixed it! Even without resources herself, she CREATED those opportunities, not just for herself, but ANY actor who wanted in. She’s seriously one of the keenest, most selfless, show-business-women I know. Nominees Miles Tagtmeyer, Kelly Jenrette, Melvin Jackson Jr. and I owe her EVERYTHING! 😘 #FYC #Emmys70

Every time I post one of these, a Northwestern-educated brain cell dies.

Still seems too good to not be fake news!

If only they gave an Emmy for silly boomerangs!

I talked this poor radio host's ear off!

I got an app.

Don't judge.

'Sup, sinners?! From somewhere in West Hollywood, I'll be talking LIVE ON THE RADIO, 2pm PT TODAY, with Sin City Sessions/ Somewhere in Vegas. (It will re-air 15 minutes later, then be archived forever.) Tune in!

Snickering and sighing and burping and belching and gagging and gulping and being generally rude/Chrissy-like at our Bite Me - The Movie ADR session this morning. (Now that the mic’s off, I can shout at the top of my lungs: I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE THIS MOVIE!!!)
