working with DPs be like: "What if... a lamp in this corner?"

I just called my reps with @5calls.org, you should too: 5calls.org

Our National Parks are so beautiful.

Today was production meetings, gluten free mac n cheese for comfort, managing rescheduling for film shoots, and passing around boycott flyers. Like ya do.

It is time to visit the library. It is time to support a local business. It is time to sing. It is time to hand out stickers, flyers, invitations. It is time to send a letter in the mail with a brand new beautiful stamp.

Art. Music. Dancing. Theatre. Spread it. Story is how we learn, change, grow, and create culture. Tell your stories.

Last night I attended the Save Our Services rally in New York City. Listen to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) fighting for people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” @aoc.bsky.social

If you're trying to figure out what to do right now, my advice is to just pick a thing that you think might be useful in some way, however small, and do it. Doing a thing leads you to doing another, bigger thing, and prepares you for that next thing.

"A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people."

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

How am I over here agreeing with and supporting Mike Pence?

Latest on the Substack

The latest on my Patreon - changes are afoot.

Call your representatives and tell them that the National Parks are a national treasure and they need to protect them. This is not a partisan issue. This the natural beauty and glory of our nation. Protecting these lands is basic.

It is repulsive that parents who were vaccinated and safe from these preventable diseases now refuse to vaccinate their own children to keep them safe.

Help Sam Nordquist's family pay for expenses: gofund.me/5e69a096

The ppl who need to hear true things refuse to hear them. The ppl who claim to love certain ppl are instrumental in their literal murders. I am so devastated today and it all feels so broken. #SamNordquist

learn about the Black Panther Party free breakfast program learn about the Zapatista uprising learn about Jane learn about the Kensington Welfare Rights Union learn about STAR learn about Act Up learn about the Battle of Blair Mountain learn about the Spanish Civil War we are not the first

the family of Sam Nordquist, whose violent murder was publicized Friday (with little other details of his life), is $5k away from their goal to cover expenses related to bringing him home from out of state and a funeral. (ty for link @berlantbro-more.bsky.social)

Been spending a LOT of physical time and mental energy with and on the team for my next project: A Taste of Eden. Below is a still from the sizzle reel we're putting together for investors. #filmmaking #indiefilm #ATasteofEden

The "100 Days of Creative Resistance” project delivers a free email of encouragement, opposition, and commiseration from 100 iconoclastic contemporary voices on each of the first 100 days of the 47th president’s regime. www.writingco-lab.com/100-days?utm...

Had such a productive and insightful meeting with @rolee-z.bsky.social today. Looking forward to working with them and all the announcements I'll be making soon.

Turn your tv off and grab one of these books📚 #booksky @skylight.social

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

I went to my Congressman's local office today. First off, they were surprised that I was there. They said they had been getting phone calls, but I was the first walk-in. That said, the phones were not ringing off the hook. If the DC phone lines are busy, try calling the local office.
