Heya. I'm Shawn. Since 1993 I've been archiving, documenting, and contextualizing body modification- art, ritual, and culture- particularly where it intersects with the LGBTQ+ community of the 1970s/80s.
It's niche work, despite pretty much everyone having a tattoo or piercing these days.

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

I logged 370 movies on @letterboxd.social in '25. These are my top 5:
1. The Testament of Ann Lee. Perfectly captures the longing for the divine. Seyfried's career defining role, and Mona Fastvold deserves far more praise than she's likely to get.

One of my dorky NY Resolutions was to watch one movie per week suggested by friends. There are no rules - It can be a first time watch, it can be something I've seen a dozen times... I just want to watch films that people I like like.
The year is filling up fast!

The Star Lite Drive-in was the first theater I went to as a kid. Fell in love with the movies there.

I caught a 70mm screening of THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE today - my second time seeing it - and we might just have my No. 1 film of the year.

I forgot to add ALT text to a 50+ year old photo of a pierced penis (interestingly enough it was taken at Karl Rove’s father’s house) and someone called me ableist and blocked me.
What’s the funniest reason someone got mad at you on Bluesky this year?

Hohoho! I drew this year's holiday card for my art rep, Felix Comic Art. I wanted the recipients to get something that looked like a piece of vintage original art, but also couldn't help poking some fun at Felix's love for Dark Knight Returns.

So far today I’ve had a cancelled flight. A 40 min delay (sitting on the runway) for a 45 min flight. And an hour (and counting) delayed final leg.
None of it weather related.

there were only five people in the TSA Precheck line when I realized I didn’t bring my passport card and my drivers license isn’t REALID. TSA was surprisingly chill and I still made it through security in minutes.
This was surprising.
