The utter obliviousness of Ideastream and CSU leadership is breathtaking. They basically torched a living, breathing cultural institution; like setting fire to a museum without even asking what was inside the building.

Listen to the radio program that Stephen Miller says will "poison the blood of the country".
If this program was a human being it would be on a one way flight to South Sudan.
This playlist will make whiny Charlie Kirk-cultists vow revenge on the rest of us!

Did you miss yesterday's Radio Paprika? Now that you're back at work and have nothing better to do, you can stream it! (The first 10 minutes are the tail end of an interview with Russell Mael of Sparks, conducted by the previous programmer on Sweet and Lowdown)

“Charlie Kirk was a father”

So was Eric Garner. So was Philando Castile, who was shot and killed in front of his daughter.

Being successful at procreating does not exempt you from being a white supremacist.

This isn’t hard to understand. I feel like I’m going insane.

James Dobson was a ruiner of futures, a destroyer of potential. I will never know the person I could have been if my parents hadn't bought into his repellent nonsense.
A voice that weaponized scripture has gone quiet.
Dr. James Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family, Family Research Council, & Family Policy Alliance, has died today at the age of 89.
May the thousands of children and those within the LGBTQ community that suffered find some sparks of peace today.

Added to the usual spicy mix of #musictobrewstrongcoffeeby, Sunday's program leaned HEAVILY into some Música Popular Brasileira! Now that you're at work and have nothing better to do, you can stream the entire program uninterrupted!

A big thank you to @waterlooarts and all of the wonderful, creative people who came out for our #cyanotype demo. It’s so refreshing in this age of digital slop to let people make real, tactile things that require patience and experimentation, and reward with unexpected surprises and satisfaction.

SATURDAY
Join me for a FREE demo and workshop into the beautiful and mysterious deep blue world of cyanotypes.
Cyanotypes are fun and incredibly easy to make, needing only sun and water to expose and develop them. Bring small, flat objects, flowers, stencils, etc, along with your imagination.

The most common reactions I get when people come to my exhibitions are: "Wow, I didn't realize it was so big!", followed by "What the hell is a photogram?"
See for yourself and learn something new, tonight 6-9 at Waterloo Arts
