I'm pretty sick and tired of the word "alarmist."

Our world is splitting at the seams. Fascism is here, the planet is hurtling toward climate catastrophe, inequality is higher than ever, bribery is legal, our water is being poisoned, and the government not only ignores our pleas but grows more oppressive by the day.

To be frank, the alarms should have been louder and gone off sooner. We should all be screaming out our windows.

Someone has a big fun project ahead.
It's a flatbed pickup so it'll be useful as well as cool.  I'm envious.

@kevinrns @bascule On a completely different note, my 50# Aussie got in between a very large owl and a chipmunk. She had no idea, until that swooping owl's very large talons grazed the top of her head. She stood and watched it fly off in surprise until she realized what just happened and ran to the front steps to go inside, now, please.

I greeted a special guest in my dressing room after Saturday’s matinee.

Brandon Gruber portrayed one of the youth in the Palo Alto Players production of Allegiance in 2022. Brandon is a board member of the National Downs Syndrome Society. His maternal grandfather was imprisoned at Heart Mountain, where Allegiance takes place.

Today is the day florida became a state, Mar 3 1849. A troubled place, now in the teeth of fascism. I have no optimism about FL, but once loved its exotic beauty, as well as its mid-20th century tourist traps. Stories of bags of contraband landing in the everglades in the 90s added to the mythology. Here’s my sketch of that. #rnapper #mastoArt #watercolor

In spite of all the doom and gloom, the 2024 Senate map actually looks pretty decent for the Democrats - Palmer Report

By refusing to sell #mifepristone by mail even in states where it's legal, #Walgreens, the 2nd-largest pharmacy chain in US, is offering an object lesson for companies in bending down and licking the boots of America's aspiring fascists.

#Walgreens is dangerous to your health. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2023/03/walgreens-abortion-pill-access

#Introduction post!

Hi I’m Kevin, professional #puppet builder and maker of fun media stuffs. Been doing this professionally since 2019. Here’s a small sample of my work. I also #livestream and #podcast so check my bio for the full linktree. Cheers!

Another reason I don’t want to become famous is because I’m afraid someone will pull up a list of everything I’ve ever favorited on Mastodon and they’ll call out super weird posts and try to cancel me and I’ll just be like “Honestly, I STILL don’t understand that post but I was trying to be encouraging so I gave it a little star.”

First time in my lifetime I've hesitated to wear my Star of David jewelry.

Wore it anyway, because, you know, screw that. But. First time it was even a consideration.

Attention journalists: if you think that readers are misjudging your article because of the headline, you should complain to your editors for writing a bad headline, not your readers for failing to engage with the article.

Ok fair enough; i just want now to relax, watch some #YourHonor Episodes with my soulmate that is arriving from work, so Sleep well and dont think about the crazy world we live in but on the better one we can make.
