@khattie.bsky.social and I are on KUTX Arts Eclectic this week speaking about our piece Unlived Lives. Give a listen and then join us under the tree in the backyard March 14-16 www.kut.org/arts-eclectic #sxsw2025 #sxswunofficial

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

This is illegal, and it endangers the rights of all Americans. In this country, people must be free to express their views — left or right, popular or unpopular — without being detained or punished by the government.

Resist, insist, persist

Target is facing a 40-day consumer boycott starting Wednesday over the company’s shift away from diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies.

“That’s right. Back again.” Poseidon Cruise Presents Sheila and Carla Jean’s High Tide Happy Hour Comedy Cabaret Deck 4 Weather Permitting Casual by @msleeeddy.bsky.social & yours truly rides again. Tonight at 8pm @hydeparktheatre.bsky.social for FronteraFest Best of Week. Tix available.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Progress report. We had a blast. Thanks for the funds ScriptWorks. Happy 30th to FronteraFest. “Poseidon Cruise Presents Sheila and Carla Jeans High Tide Happy Hour Comedy Cabaret Deck 4 Weather Permitting Casual” by Lee Eddy and Jenny Larson @msleeeddy.bsky.social @hydeparktheatre.bsky.social 🛳️🍸⚓️

5-6-7-8 Showtime! Me & my bestie @msleeeddy.bsky.social are performing a silly little bit at FronteraFest on Jan 29.

They can erase websites and make executive decrees. It doesn’t change the facts. America IS diversity.
