Last week I had the honor of interviewing artist Pepper Pepper, about his "Pink Moments: Collections" show at Seattle Central's M. Rosetta Hunter gallery. Read about the influence of the cut-up method and the queer magic of "Pink" @echothearts.bsky.social here: theevergreenecho.org/echo/pepperp...

Didn't get to attend our Elliot Bay readings? You did attend and want to hang out with us more? The Evergreen Echo will be having another free public reading event this Sunday, September 21 from 4-6pm at Georgetown Liquor Company! (21+ event!) Come meet us, have some amazing food and great convos!

Curious about where to see Burlesque in Seattle and wtf is going in with the Rendezvous? @themorgueanne.bsky.social spills the tea in my latest article @echothearts.bsky.social : theevergreenecho.org/echo/morguea...

"Bluesky is boring." Social media *should* be boring. Being algorithm and dopamine poisoned is bad, actually. When your feed dries up for the day, that's your cue to go do something else until new stuff shows up later.

Harold & Maude is hands-down my favorite film of all time. I've literally watched it hundreds of times, and it has dragged me out of multiple emotional spirals. A recent rewatch has reiterated how much the current moment calls for a whole lot of Maude.

Tonight at Elliot Bay! Come say hello

Have you wanted to meet up and chat about local media, hear some awesome works of fiction and poetry read from our awesome Creatives? @echothearts.bsky.social will be at Elliot Bay Book Company this Friday, August 29th @ 7pm! We would love to see your faces for this FREE event!

Games I've been playing to stay sane-ish for the past few months: #immortallife, #blueprince, #talesofseikyu, #promisemascotagency #games

Just read my dear friend @sharonarnold.bsky.social 's piece 'Queering Time' publicdisplay.art/article/Quee... and I highly recommend. They are such a beautiful writer. ❣️#sharonarnold

Just got my backerkit from #gethauntedindustries 'Weird Heroes of Public Access'RPG, zines, and merch. Such a rad project, and I'm excited to play. #whpa

Something Spooky at Afterglow Vista? Hear all the hot ghost-goss in this week's Iconic Convos @echothearts.bsky.social theevergreenecho.org/echo/iconica... #sanjuanisland #rocheharbor #afterglowvista #iconicconvos

The rng in Blue Prince is driving me batty. On one run, I had 7 keys, 8 gems, 20 coins, car keys, a shovel, shoes, and the metal detector and most of my drafts were dead ends. Today I drafted 6 new rooms, which all required gems, and I had the two I started with, no $ (got Showroom), and no keys. 🫠

Continued from yesterday, here is Part 2 of my @echothearts.bsky.social interview with artist Jennifer Leigh Harrison about her show "I'm Trying to Tell You Something" @cocaseattle.bsky.social theevergreenecho.org/echo/jlhfemi...

Promise Mascot Agency by @kaizengameworks.com released today, and I'm having the best time getting into this Yakuza/Love hotel/Mascot gameplay. My gamepad with stick drift adds another layer of bonkers to a weird+wonderful game (am I running into everything? Absolutely). ++Recommend

So sad this morning to learn that Garek J. Druss is gone. I didn't know him well, but got to work with him and learn more about his soundscapes @sharonarnold.bsky.social 's Bridge Productions in 2017. youtu.be/nLGTbDUikAI?...

Just finished the demo for Promise Mascot Agendy by @kaizengameworks.com and can't wait for the full release. Super funny, great story, loving the characters, rich in open world with quests, and responsive controls. store.steampowered.com/app/2585830/...

The Needling is still satire..right? 😂 At least Bruce gets the title of Seattle's Dumbest Mayor #awinnerisyou
