Happy holidays! Probably my favorite stop-motion from the past few years. Really enjoyed creating this one.

I hate that every week there's something stupid like an Everyone Has To Drink Pee Now Bill and the alert sounds to CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES THIS IS NOT A DRILL and you really wish you could just trust them to not go for the pee drinking bill

I stole The Martian Chronicles from my sister's AP summer reading list and read it in one night. The sun was coming up, I closed the book, and those experiences and revelations never left me.
I knew the kind of stories I wanted to tell, in that moment.

performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!
tell me about a book that changed you
for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"

@gtkarber.bsky.social Your Halloween mystery was super fun! Made sense, in the typical roundabout way, and I landed on "he's framing someone" but not as exquisitely as you delivered it. Wonderful sleuthing!

Tipsy and trying not to creepily haunt my sleepy boyfriend by clutching a bag of quail eggs and singing one of my VAST REPOSITORY of egg songs.
The fella is trying to sleep.
But,
Eggs.

Something to keep in mind, I learned at Halloween Horror Nights the first aid office has cheap foam earplugs if you ever need them. They came in handy for my fella tonight, so if you're struggling they've got your back.

When did Halloween Horror Nights start playing industrial club bangers and why would I ever leave this Plaza now that they do?

Fun watching people tap on the bar while a band is playing and being able to tell what instruments they play.

@ass.golf I saw Shiner tonight. Thanks for being the only person (other than in associated bands) who knows who the fuck they are. 23 years waiting for this show and it's exquisite.

Maybe my fault but when I called Dr. Feelgood PHD I expected a better outcome than feeling "alright."
Modicum of disappointment.

Suddenly it's 4 am and all your friends are asleep and you're reading REALLY DEEP meanings into Echo & The Bunnymen songs.
