Thanks to One, Sara Benincasa, Neil Gaiman Will Perform a Live Reading of The Cheesecake Factory Menu If $500K Is Raised for the United Nations Refugee Agency

1) This is real.
2) The idea for this did come from author/actress/comedian Sara Benincasa experiences of watching an episode of American Gods and going to Cheesecake Factory blending in her subconscious (via Eater)
3) They’ve already raised $68,707
4) Here’s Neil Gaiman performing a commencement speech in case you forgot how lovely his voice sounds.
5) Here’s the Cheesecake Factory menu in case you forgot how massive and indulgent it is.
6) They’re trying to reach the goal of $500,000 by June 20th, World Refugee Day.
7) Again, this is real.
8) Donate to this delightfully silly and great thing here on CrowdRise.

Wes Anderson’s latest film, Isle of Dogs, is in the works, and Wes has been gracious enough to give a bit of a taste of what’s to come (with a very Wes Anderson-y cameo by Edward Norton too).

He also has been gracious enough to, in support of film preservation around the world, open an opportunity for a lucky person to go to London and voice a dog in the film. That’s right; you could be in a Wes Anderson movie about dogs.

Watch Wes explain here.
