Who wants some random Siberia facts? ☃️ I was born and raised there (left in 2003, never returned), and I've always found it funny how many misconceptions folks have about it. This will be a bit of an ongoing thread...

Feral Artist Nomad odyssey, part 3: the Pennsylvania crunch

Such a small world. The bus that took me from New York to West Reading, PA had two other filmmakers: Vanessa and Kathleen, the co-creators of the wonderful “Five Flights.” We chatted a …

I rather like the way this shot turned out. 😌 (Sunrise at the Orlando airport.)

A crowded airport food court. Blindingly bright morning sun sends a vertical ray, reducing the people to mere shadows.

Lately, I'm getting more new experiences in a single day than I used to in an entire season during my workaholic era. 😮 It's mighty wild, living out of a backpack - today is the first time I've paid for lodging in 9 days. 🤣 I dig it, though.

History repeats itself. Those who seek immortality - or the vainest kind of glory - end up poisoning themselves with lead and other toxic nonsense. 🤡

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

Feral Artist Nomad update. Denver was fun. :) I had just a few hours to explore, but I liked the vibes. A lot like Portland, only much higher. 🙃

A 6-hour ride to Grand Junction... A very sprawl-y town. In a way, it reminds me or rural Nevada. Spending the night here, then off to my film fest. 🥳

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.

Sometimes, coincidences stalk you. 🙃

A yellow Amazon locker. The inscription on it reads, "hello my name is cassandra."

What a beautiful sentence. 🤣 Right up there with Donnie Darko's "I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion" hahaha

The process of immigrating to the United States changed people's names. They did not always do it to themselves. That is what I am asking people to grapple with: that there was in fact a systemic changing of names by other people.

The best way to break a $20 bill is by walking into a thrift store and buying a book. 🤓 Check out this beauty I found at a Goodwill here in Denver!

A beautiful green hardcover. "Words I wish I wrote: a collection of writing that inspired my ideas" by Robert Fulghum

If Trump ever renames New Mexico to New America, it would have to be spelled "New Murica" in order to preserve the "NM" acronym and avoid breaking every system.

Happy Columbo’s Day

Screenshot from Columbo. He his talking to his dog, which is sitting is the drivers seat of a car. “Okay, I’m gonna put you in charge. You take care of the car. You’re a responsible dog. When I get back, if the car’s okay, I’ll give you another cookie.”

Thank you for not taking the Battlestar Galactica approach to ending a series. 🫠 (Combine a magic child with a zombie goddess and make everyone give up all their tools. 🤣)

Memories of West Reading, PA. Such a remarkably artsy and welcoming town. I miss it already. 💖

A large statue of a bear wearing pink pajamas and goggles.

A very Jeff VanderMeer-like statue of a blue-green frog with a yellow beak.

A stereotypical diner sign that reads, "The American Diner, Breakfast Lunch Dinner." Underneath, the digital screen says, "SOUP." In the background, a banner reads, "West Reading."

My selfie: red coat, green backpack, rings, standing outside as I walk across town on the side of the road.
