"Several weeks after I visited the set in Portland, I had breakfast with Brownstein in Washington, D.C., where I live. During the meal, she got a text from Armisen: “You and I are in Spin together! Love you!” Brownstein smiled and said that she appreciated Fred’s unabashed enthusiasm for their accomplishments. It had taken a while, she said, for her to shed the sense that it was unseemly to “take credit for something you did. So Fred is so nice, because he never came from that scene. And it’s not about being self-aggrandizing. It’s just about taking a moment to be proud of yourself, that you worked hard and feel good about it.” Maybe, she mused, it helped that he was a guy."

Also, “Stumptown Girl”? Could this be better?
