Gallery review: Hunter S Thompson would have loved Meow Wolf
I take every chance I can get to escape the wheels of the capitalist death machine. My phone is constantly telling me someone’s been shot in a mall, or the asshole with the long red tie has done so…

I think we’re all one bad day away from wearing “I SHAVED MY BALLS FOR THIS?” gas station t-shirts as an emotional metaphor.

Live music review: Calvera played Chaos A.D. in full at Come It Take It Live
I’ve seen a lot of bands do the whole “playing the seminal album” thing over the years. For a long time, the gold standard was Roger Waters doing Dark Side of the Moon—an experience that was incred…

Opinion: Hear me out, Austin City Limits Music Festival at COTA
I know you are going to hate this. But since ACL I’ve been thinking about something: the fest itself and how Austin handles it. First, I gotta get through the fine print: I’ve been to the Austin Ci…

There is no Prime Day sale over at my tiny shop. But you can buy a hand-sewn little guy that took me many hours to create.

Hi Bluesky! I just launched my Big Cartel fabric art shop, and I was wondering if you could help spread the word?

All of my creations are designed, hand-sewn, and hand-embroidered by me. Any sales are colossally appreciated.

Here's a lovely photo of a plethora of hand-sewn fabric art creatures. There's a watermelon creature with a red face, eight black seed-like eyes, and a wide mouth with five sharp teeth. There's a white ghost trinket bag covered with purple embroidered flowers. She has a gray face, sparkly black eyes and a little frown. There's a strawberry creature with three bulbous green eyes. There's a watermelon ghost, a strawberry ghost bag, and a black creature with sharp teeth. There's a white egg with yellow embroidered flowers and purple eyeshadow and purple lips. All the creatures are sitting on green fur and there's a galaxy print fabric in the background. The watermelon creature and the watermelon ghost are sitting on metal doll chairs. Here's a lovely photo of the cosmic ghost bag. She's a black ghost with various stars and planets embroidered on her body. There are little white stars, larger white stars, yellow stars, purple stars, a dark purple planet, a light purple planet, a red planet with a yellow ring. She has a gray moon-like face with large sparkly black eyes and a little frown. She's wearing a black fabric witch hat. She's resting on my palm and there's green fur in the background of the pic. Here's a lovely photo of three fabric art eggs watching the tiny witch homunculus balancing on one foot on a small broom. The eggs are purple, pink and white, and they're covered with embroidered flowers. The eggs have mouths with lip colors that match their flowers. They have two flat teeth poking out of their mouths. The pink egg is wearing a small sun hat. The tiny witch homunculus is green with large sparkly red eyes and a little frown. There's green fur in the background of the photo. Here's a photo of fabric art creatures with a white fabric background. There's a cute and creepy mothman with a black body and a gray face with twinkly red eyes and sharp teeth. There's a green Kentucky goblin with a lighter green face and large pointy ears. He has twinkly yellow eyes and he's wearing a black party hat covered with red googly eyes and a big red poof at the top. There's also a red death worm with nine cream-colored eyes and sharp teeth. The tiny homunculus witch is sitting on the worm's head. She's very small, with large twinkly red eyes and a green body. She's wearing a small version of the party hat the goblin's wearing.

Look, I’m not trying to sound MAGA but Bad Bunny was atrocious on SNL. Like, minus the Weekend Update, holy shit that episode was unbelievably unfunny.

The worst part of living in Austin besides the home prices is the allergies. I think nature is stabbing me in the face.

Trump coming out to fireworks for a memorial is the definition of tacky. He’s a used car salesman who leads a cult.
