Sometimes I don’t understand how Jim Henson ever sold his absolutely wild ideas to colleagues and gatekeepers alike, but then I look at a picture of him and am like “yes, I also would have done whatever he told me to do.”

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

What if we all spent this evening sharing some of our favorite Muppet fan art, posts, etc from the wonderful people who make up this community? I'll start. @komakesthings.bsky.social is so incredibly talented. It blows my mind every time she posts a new replica.

This seems like a great time to remind people that ToughPigs is a Muppet Fan website that does some real good in the community. Just for one example: toughpigs.com/pride-month-...

Take a look, it’s in a book! 🌈🦋 @levarburton.bsky.social #illustration

Yeah #TheMuppets70

A very VERY happy birthday to Joan Ganz Cooney, one of the creators of Sesame Street. She’s 95 today! Without her, we wouldn’t have the Street. 💚💛

Haven’t really thought much about the muppet 70 thing but this himbo deserves all the love in the world!

The festive season is upon us! Time for tinsel, turkey, and… #krampus. I do hope you’ve been *good* little children. #puppets #puppetbuilding

“So if you care to find me, look to the western sky...”

things I’ve made recently

Hi! I’m back!

Cantus, the Minstrel

Make stuff! Make your own stuff! Don’t wait for permission or a giant kickstarter, just do it. I’ve gotten more creative fulfillment from making stupid lil cartoons I only think are funny than anything else I’ve worked on. Idk man just do it stop making excuses!

I gave everyone at Friendsgiving a numbered Sesame-themed decorative train car. They tried to pose for a nice photo with their cars and predictably fell to pieces laughing. It’s much better this way.
