This is just a reminder that the newest season of the interactive "Ghost Town Alive!" event premieres tomorrow at Knott's Berry Farm. You could travel to the edge of the galaxy and still not have as much fun in a theme park. #GhostTownAlive #InteractiveTheater #Knotts #ThemeParks

After 5 years we're finally able to return to Monsterpalooza in Pasadena this weekend. We are both excited and terrified about this development.

#FezFriday reminding you that this upcoming weekend is the last one of the #BoysenberryFestival at Knott's Berry Farm this year. In any case, it's where I still have my "The Fool" #TarotCards for sale celebrating their annual #GhostTownAlive event. Don't delay, buy some now! #TiedUpInKnotts

This upcoming weekend was originally supposed to be the last days of the #BoysenberryFestival at Knott's Berry Farm, but according to @themeparkduo.bsky.social, it's been extended until May 12! In any case, it's where I still have my "The Fool" #TarotCards for sale. Don't Delay! #TiedUpInKnotts

This is the kind of notification I receive where I have to double check to verify that it is, in fact, Central Casting sending me the message, and not just the universe giving me hints about some grim inevitability.

Can't Not see my handle here on Blooski and Not Repost this Fact. BTW, for the record, this is the first album I ever bought with Mine Own Monies.
Name a perfect album from the 1980's.

#FezFriday at the #BoysenberryFestival at Knott's, with "Ike Mayfield" from the annual "Ghost Town Alive!" interactive theater event, the inspiration for my #TarotCard artwork for sale at their #TiedUpInKnotts gallery exhibit. ( +thanx to Knott's Network podcast for this: youtu.be/h4tfnZmLk3M?... )

The Boysenberry Festival at Knott's is underway, and look! Here's proof I have artwork for sale in the "Tied Up in Knott's" gallery show in the Factory Store. If you like their "Ghost Town Alive!" bit of immersive theater, you'll be wanting one of my Tarot Cards. #BoysenberryFestival #TiedUpInKnotts

I'm briefly interviewed by the Knott's Network podcast at the "March Madness" meet-up here: youtu.be/Ax5u4P08tgI?... I also get strangled by one of my Executioners at the 9:29 mark. I forgot how when I usually hit the concrete as a ScareActor, I'm wearing kneepads. My look of pain wasn't all acting.

I get frustrated with the idea that creative pursuits like writing and art are generally considered “passions” and not “jobs”, cuz that’s how the world sets them up to be underfunded & underappreciated, and still act like they’re doing creators a favor by paying for it. We are tradespeople. Period.

This feels like a checklist to me, like some mental quartermaster is tersely demanding that I tick all the boxes before I step out my door and go out into the world.

I would like to think that the blotchy texture we get from 3D Printing now is going to be looked upon in the future like some charming deliberate aesthetic choice, like 8-bit graphics from the 80s or woodgrain in the 70s, fueled A Look, and is going to be Revived as a style forty years from now.

Damn. Mojo's part of my core memories. My first CD that I ever bought was the Mojo Nixon/Jello Biafra single "Will the Fetus Be Aborted?" when I was in college. I was introduced to Mojo by "Weird Al" Yankovic's "ALtv" pirate takeovers of MTV back in high school. www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

I am signal boosting this, as Stephen was decent enough to give me some decent advice last year regarding pathways to getting a manuscript published. I am not liking how this is the SECOND major "name" author I've read about on here who needs financial assistance, in as many months.
Here's something I'd hoped to never have to do. I've started a Gofundme to try to dig out of a financial hole that's just gotten too deep. Fun times. Any amount would help and signal boosts are greatly appreciated. Thanks. gofund.me/67f42a3d

This year has been so ridiculous & weird that I don't have the energy to be surprised anymore. A portal to another world could open in my kitchen & I'd be like "Well, I guess this is just another thing I'm gonna have to learn to live with."

Sincere gratitude to my fellow castmates in "The Gauntlet" ScareZone at Knott's Scary Farm for bequeathing to me the "Rookie of the Year" award for 2023. Thank you all; I learned a lot from you performing as a ScareActor this year. #ScareActor #KnottsScaryFarm #KSF50 #HauntAttractions #TheGauntlet

Happy Halloween, All! I'll be back at my Art Department gig tomorrow, but tonight is my final night this season performing at Knott's Scary Farm. For some great photos of the event, check out Chris Cornish's Monster Portraits: chriscornishphotography.pixieset.com/knottsmonste... #Halloween #KSF50
