The multi-talented pair of Sara Tomko (Resident Alien star!) and TJ Pederson (actor, director) blow away all expectaions of up and coming indie film producers. They act, direct, write...and Sara can sing her heart out. The next monster film team out of LA.. see em here!!

It is completely NORMAL for a country to take care of itself.

Sesame Workers Union @sesameworkersunion.bsky.social · Mar 13

Anthony is a Sesame employee who was just laid off while he awaits an anticipated kidney transplant. As a full time contract worker, he was denied severance-- unlike his colleagues considered "staff."

We believe ALL workers contribute to our mission and so ALL workers deserve severance.

Some photos from my 2016 trip to a Sesame Street taping :) After building Caroll Spinney's official fan page in 2001, he and I became friends and we got to hang out. I wanted the world to get to know the man behind the Bird and the Grouch. This was before the book and movie deals. RIP Caroll

The man who bribed Gill - Oleh Voloshyn - is part of a much wider network of pro-Russian actors.

He worked with this guy, an FSB agent, who I've been fascinated by for years,

My investigation for @thenerve.news shows how Gill was a pawn in a Kremlin operation that spanned both Europe & US
