OH JESUS, FUCK THEY ARE REHEARSING NUTCRACKER BETWEEN SHOWS TODAY. I’M SUPPOSED TO HAVE ANOTHER 2 WHOLE WEEKS OF PEACE WITHOUT BEING ASSAULTED BY THIS MUSIC.

To improve morale on the timeline, check out the SUPER SECRET summer project that I finished yesterday. It’s for friends who are not on Bluesky for their wedding. I’ll take it to the quilter when I pick my other quilt.

It’s WISHLIST WEDNESDAY and if you have $8 to spare we need HAY please! donorbox.org/mmfs-2025-ha...

You gotta be fucking kidding me, that is NUTCRACKER SNOW! ON THE FLOOR! OF MY HOUSE! IN OCTOBER! I haven’t even been in the theater for three months. KILL IT WITH FIRE

This summer’s project will be heading to the quilter in the next few days!!

Ok, can somebody please explain if the dryer is not a stackable dryer what kind of monster would make the top of the dryer sloped, so you can’t put folded things on top of it and they just slide right off?

I absolutely read this to the tune of “Bitch” by Meredith Brooks

Seriously Jacques ze Whipper was always my favorite part of the MA Renaissance Faire and I’m glad he’s making a big name for himself, but I will miss seeing him every year

Without downloading any new images where are you mentally

when me and my crew roll up on you

I hate Mondays

New “overheard at work” just dropped “He’s dead in a good place, we’ll be fine”

A friend had a spare ticket to Alanis Morisette and that was fun, but the opener of JOAN FREAKIN’ JETT is gonna be hard to top for my personal list

Have you commented yet? so important to do the thing. (This thread has useful info.)

The Cans Will Always Fall

I know how you feel little sandbag, I know how you feel.

Aw yeah, lookee what came back from the quilter and is all done!

I’ve been quilting to help me deal with the horror show… So to help distract you all here have a look at what is possibly the coolest thing I have ever made. It’s gonna get sent to the quilter this weekend

Swan Lake perf 2 Trying to recreate the magical moment of our first rehearsal. We sorta buried the carpenters in chest high fog and they couldn’t find the brakes on the platform they were moving. Or the platform itself. But swinging it 180 creating a HUGE head-high wave of fog? That was on them.

Enh, fuck it, I need something light-hearted right now, so I’m gonna get back on my bullshit. Here we go: SWAN LAKE perf 1 I’m here to kick ass and not get trampled by the bevy. *kicks and misses* and now my foot is stuck and oh shit here come the swans. (Look, I can’t win ALL the time)

This auction is live for a few more days. Donate to a good cause, get something shiny and shove a middle finger at transphobes all at the same time!

Walking out of the house this morning, I felt like Atreyu from Neverending story walking between the sphinxes. Be confident! They are only SMALL furry predators

You know what? I’m not even mad for once.

@lilithsaintcrow.com I just finished reading Chained Knight, and I gotta say you knocked it out of the park! I loved it!!

I have a few tiny quilted trans flags in this auction, but there is so much cool stuff here go check it out! Get yourself something pretty and support a great cause!

That moment you walk up to a pal and say “weird question but you are the only person I know who would probably say yes- do you have a Geiger counter I could borrow?” Reader, the answer was in fact: “Well… yeah, sure!”

“In theater our best work and our worst work end up next to each other in the dumpster. Learn to be okay with that”

There’s a show called Songs for a New World that has nothing to do with Xmas but has a great song by Mrs Claus, that gives her an… interesting life and doesn’t exactly paint a happy picture of the couple, but is still in fact hilarious.

The class was Sensation and Perception and it was all about the science behind our senses and why we see certain things the way they do - ever since every once in a while something I am looking at onstage clicks as to WHY it looks or sounds that way.

Me during halfway thru Act 2 of my 18th show of nutcracker this year

First show of this year’s Nutcracker… Menacing voice: I am here to crack nuts and take names, and I already know all you fuckers.

I have PTSD from running Nutcracker. And it’s coming out hard this year because I am running a different track. I don’t know where I am supposed to be and it is CAUSING SIGNIFICANT STRESS.

My adult lunchables today has grapes and… I kinda blanked on the word “olives” and my brain said “salty grapes” Tell me I’m wrong.

Optimist: The cup is half full Pessimist: The cup is half empty Stagehand: The cup is six inches too far downstage and is out of its light, also it’s now under the flying scenic piece and is going to get crushed.

This is a great article, and I think this pull quote here is like an arrow to my heart that explains what I’ve been feeling since Election Day.

What’s red and bad for your teeth? A brick

The thing that I cannot seem to get past of all these “low information voters who voted for Trump” is the fact that one of the lowest tiers of information about the guy is that LITERAL FUCKING NAZIS SUPPORT HIM, and that wasn’t a fucking deal breaker.

At some point my phone number and my sister’s have gotten swapped on some voter list. She lives in a swing state, and based on the volume of texts I get, I know it’s only one list of many, but still holy shit I am so sorry for you folks in swing states.

The summer quilting project is finally complete!!!

Pretty sure this is my expression

Man, I thought cyber trucks were ugly during the day, but I just saw my first one at night. Damn thing has a unibrow.

You guys sometimes I’m allowed to work on a staggeringly beautiful piece of art, and gottdam do we have one for the next two weeks. I love the ephemeral nature of this medium.

NEW WORK QUOTE ALERT FRESH OFF THE HEADSET! “Props can you bring a crowbar and a hammer down to the PT room?” In case you’re wondering, PT does in fact mean physical therapy.

My boss, who can be extremely frustrating to work with (yes he is aware of this fact) is currently losing his mind because he has to deal with someone EXACTLY LIKE HIMSELF. In other news, popcorn is a great snack.

… since when do tribbles have ears?

Oh yeah, I’m still number one
