Ryan Gosling was back in LA recently after filming Blue Valentine on the east coast, when one of his friends ran out of gas. Naturally, Baby Goose filled his spare gas can and delivered it to the friend in need, but not before he could give $5 to a homeless guy in a wheelchair. “Hey, Girl, do you need a ride somewhere? Just hop on my Vespa. My motto is ‘gas, class, or mass, everyone rides for free.’ I also have a pickup at home. I don’t drive it ’cause it’s bad for the environment, but I keep it around in case I need to help you move, girl.”

Hey girl. I came here with my friend, baby sloth, to let you know that it’s okay to take it slow. Haha, get it, girl? Because he’s a sloth? Just kidding, girl, that’s not even really me in the picture, it’s Anderson Cooper. That’s photoshop, girl. But I still mean what I said about taking it slow.
Anyway, girl, here’s some pictures of me on the set of my new movie, All Good Things. Haha, they let me play with a dog. And no, I didn’t mean Kirsten Dunst, that’s really mean, you guys.
Hey girl, I wore my other tuxedo shirt.

Aw, Baby Goose has a band. Specifically Dead Man’s Bones, a goth-folk duo made up of Ryan Gosling and Zach Shields. A record label called Anti has just announced that they’ll be putting out Dead Man’s self-titled debut album in October. Dead Man’s Bones? Anti? Oh, Baby Goose, it’s like we barely even knew you! Oh I see, you were just trying to sound “dangerous.” Well when you put it that way I guess it is pretty adorable. Haha, I love it when you wink and make air quotes. Let’s promise we’ll never fight and pinkie swear to be best friends forever.
Gosling described the motivation behind the album’s aesthetic: “You know when you’re a kid and you get crayons and papers and just draw whatever you want and it’s just a bunch of messy lines, but to you it makes sense, and then they put it on the fridge? From that point on, you’re always trying to get back on the fridge, you start drawing things that look like something, like, the more it looks like a horse, the more chance you have of getting it on the fridge. We wanted to get back to that place before we were trying to make the fridge. We wanted to work with people who hadn’t been affected in that way yet.” [via Pitchfork]
Translation: Girl, you make me feel just like a kid again. Let’s draw each other with crayon and I’ll play you this song I wrote about hot chocolate.
Fear not, this post is exactly what the headline says it is, no tricks.
Is it just me, or does baby goose seem less than thrilled all of a sudden? “Hey, girl, thanks for the tuxedo shirt. It’s just, I don’t know. Wearing something ironically seems… dishonest somehow, you know?”

We’ve already established that Green Lantern is a pretty gay idea for a movie, considering his origin is that an alien comes to Earth, finds a young man who is “without fear,” and gives him a power ring. That’s a metaphor for priest molestation if I’ve ever heard one. Nonetheless, the movie is happening. SciFi Wire recently talked to screenwriter (for now) Marc Guggenheim, who says no one has been cast yet. He doesn’t reveal much, but promises to take “a very loving and respectful approach.”
To me that sounds a lot like a tacit admission that (as once rumored) Ryan Gosling will be playing the lead. In honor of this story, here are other facts you may not know about Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern:
