Have you got a minute to talk about our lord and saviour? No not Jesus Christ you fool, I’m talking about the actor Nathan Fillion, of Firefly and Castle fame.
Mr. Fillion has done rather well for himself over the last ten years or so, and has somehow managed to rise to the position of a kind of pseudo-deity of the internet, worshiped by legions of adoring followers from Tumblr to Buzzfeed.
In a seeming tacit acceptance of his new role as the chosen heavenly messiah of the social media generation, Fillion’s twitter feed has basically devolved into a string of sparing, sage and often pithy responses to his fan bases endless solicitation of his wisdom. The people require answers to the everyday problems of their humdrum, non-Nathan Fillion lives, and the lord Nathan provides. He rarely seems to be particularly helpful, but to be fair to him the questions are often a touch on the bizarre side…
