#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 β€œHonestly, I STILL don’t understand that post but I was trying to be encouraging so I gave it a little star.”

I hear you. That must be 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 challenging for you to be dealing with right now.

Do you want me to just listen to how you’re feeling or do you want me to give you a logical and reasonable response so we can all stop pretending like you are infallible and that everyone else is the problem in your life?

This is one of those that I had a hard time categorizing. It's #minimalist, its #abstract, it's #fractal, it's #nautical, it's #moody... it's #ForSale

I'm a 52 year-old cishet Canadian man of Tamil descent. I feel tired every single day. I loathe the MAGA/Brexit nostalgia, the longing for days when things were concretely worse for so many (including me & mine).

But I remember that there are so many β€” black, indigenous, trans β€” who tolerate worse indignities (and also larger systemic cruelty & injustice) daily just existing even now.

I pick myself up, breathe deep, & press on. Gotta do the work. For everyone.

Are trans women women?

Boost for Yes.
Favorite for Obviously!
Delete your account for No.

I don’t have an unwanted pregnancy.

I’m not in Ukraine getting hit by Russian shelling.

I’m not facing ethnic cleansing in Tigray.

I don’t have a disability.

I’m not gay.

➑️ But I defend everyone’s rights.

βœ… Because that’s what universal human rights are all about.
