This is the photo call for the show. I am doing right now until Sunday in Los Angeles. Sometimes when there’s a photo call they make you do part of the show, but I forgot my lines even though I wrote my lines so I made some up.

PS here’s me and @roxanegay.bsky.social at said Sparks game (she had THE BEST SEATS EVER) and new creature alert Vigo the Carpathian Wonder.

One of my roles in the revolution: give fuel to take a deep breath & know that we’re gonna make it… here’s some fuel: these pictures taken after the LA Sparks game. 🇺🇸 Now go call your representative about something or donate to a place taking care of immigrants

@5calls.org always has what I need today It’s THE best. Also use info from Jessica Craven on Substack on the daily to figure out what’s the need in the now

Seeing the indigo girls with my friends last week ,gave me enough juice to do some high energy calling of my representatives this morning

Karen Bass: "You don't deploy the armed forces because of people's feelings."

My Great Dream is to Make Art and share the art I make. Whatever you’re art is (making food, teaching, painting, pickleball, dancing) the job of our art is to make the Revolution (of Love, of Progress, of Peace, of the Planet) IRRESISTIBLE. I’ve made a show called OUTDATED- here’s a taste.

I’ve keep thinking about this wonderful compliment, and I needed to say an out loud thank you for it, Simon. Thank you 💕⚡️

It WARMS MY HEART SO MUCH that you saw it. Thank you Yessenia. I am a fan of YOU too ⚡️⚡️⚡️💕💕💕💕

The village it takes to make a Penny Garcia.

Hello name doppelgänger @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social it is my understanding you’ve implied fellow helper Zorhan Mamdani is affiliated with some nefarious folks, if so- Is what you said founded in truth? Real question. Or is he scary because of his refreshing kindness, courage and authenticity?

No matter where you live if you would like to see this play I wrote you can get a streaming ticket! Our 6/28 show at 4pm PST will be filmed and streamed and you’ll have at least a week to watch it- here’s the link for a ticket

Zohran Mamdani is standing up to the oligarchy and fighting to make one of America’s most expensive cities affordable for the working class.

If you’re a New York City voter, I urge you to rank him #1 on your ballot by next Tuesday.

Fake kindness I should say. As they are lying, and therefore not being kind

Nope. She’s lying and tricking with kindness! Thanks knowing it wasn’t me ⚡️💕

Couple things I learned today:
- Seniors are extremely fired up about this
- "Fuck ICE" is a normie position now
- People are MASSIVELY pissed off about Sen. Padilla being wrestled to the ground in LA
- We all we got, we all we need

💕💕💕💕

worth adding. he's the ranking member on the immigration subcommittee. of course she knows who he is.

Are we really fucking doing this.

Had nothing happened to Senator Padilla at all, what she was describing is a federal takeover of a major city by military force with no specified end-date, with no legal authority. Do not let the fascists talk their way out of that.

See you on Saturday. Deep breaths. 🇺🇸

My mother was checking in on me because she was worried about Los Angeles. This is us Saturday night raising money for unhoused kids.

I’ve been so absent. I made a play. If you’re in Los Angeles you can seeeee it (I’m working on maybe a stream)
