I’ve been working on my theatre marquee.

I’m dreaming my own specific dream and slowly crafting it into existence! It’s a great way to stay sane when things feel overwhelming.

It's World Puppetry Day! Here is my tiny Bear marionette (6 inches tall when standing upright), meeting an even tinier butterfly puppet (under an inch square). Work in progress.
Puppetry is intimate, tactile magic. An antidote to fractured, distracted, screen-heavy living. It gives me hope.

this is a very helpful framework for metabolizing the onslaught of terrible things & also taking action!
If there's one thing that domestic violence research has taught me, it's that abusers set up no-win scenarios. They punish you whether you cooperate with them or whether you push back.

The only way out is to strengthen ties with people outside of the relationship who can create new, better options.

Morning magic.

Rainbow light and umbrella plant shadows on the wall. And the window film making them.

DON’T MEMORY HOLE ELON MUSK’S NAZI SALUTE

It’s been 4 weeks and 1 day since Elon Musk loudly vocalized his support for Nazi ideology

Everything that has happened since has happened with the guidance of an open Nazi

This should be repeated in articles, regularly
