Julius Caesar opens in less than three weeks! I’m currently up to my elbows in retractable prop daggers and fake blood; resigning myself to the fact that a few of my cast members will need a fresh costume for every performance.
Washable stage blood is a LIE people!

Just sitting here in Alaska wishing my governor was even half the man that Pritzker is.
I’ve been marching for LGBTQ+ rights since Pride was considered a protest.
And I’ll continue to march under this administration as a recommitment to the fight for equality today.
No matter who you are or who you love, you have a home here in Illinois.

The next time you don’t feel like going into work, just tell your boss that you can’t because there’s a moose blocking the front door.

Museum of the American Indian in NYC. @nothingsmonstrd.bsky.social and I saw it a few weeks ago. The museum is in the old customs house near Battery Park. The most moving exhibits in the place were empty cases with placards reading: The items in this case have been returned to their tribe.

I am loving my month in Manhattan but MOTHER of GOD THE WEED! Or did everyone in the borough get a pet skunk? Honestly, New Yorkers have embraced legal weed with all the sophistication of a bunch oh 7th graders who just found a baggie on the side of the road.

Watching Gavel Alaska’s coverage of the vote count in Juneau. I just learned a new ranked choice voting term - exhausted ballots.
“a of ballot that is not counted in an election because all the candidates a voter ranked have been eliminated.”

Everything you wanted to know about Ranked-Choice Voting (and maybe somethings you didn’t)
In recent months, there has been increased news coverage of ranked-choice voting (RCV) in Illinois. At this point, you may be asking “what in the world is ranked-choice voting?”

The sun won’t rise again in Utqiagvik for 67 days.
Stay cozy friends.
Stay cozy friends.
Utqiagvik (formerly Barrow) saw its last sunset for 67 days the other day. As the northernmost town in Alaska, they won't have another sunrise until the end of January!
Fun fact: my parents taught there in the early 90's. I graduated a Barrow Whaler with 31 others in 1992.

15.800 yıllık gravürler Buzul Çağı'na ait en eski ağ balıkçılığı uygulamalarını ortaya koyuyor.
Bu keşif daha da önemli çünkü o döneme ait sanat eserlerinde balıkçılık faaliyetlerine dair çok nadir temsiller yer alıyor ve çoğunlukla zıpkınlar, oklar ve balık kancaları bulunuyordu.
