 “Here’s a question for you guys. Um… Is it… is it necessary? Is it necessary that every single person on this planet um, expresses every single opinion that they have on every single thing that occurs all at the same time? Is that… is that necessary?

Um… Or to ask in a slightly different way, um, can… can anyone shut the fuck up? Can… can anyone, any… any… any one, any single one, can any one… shut the fuck up about anything– About any… any single thing? Can any single person shut the fuck up about any singlе thing for an hour? You know, is that… is that possible?

And I know you’re thinking, ‘You’re not shutting thе fuck up right now,’ and that’s true, but…”

A small set-up for Rejuvenation festival in LaCygne

I’ve been signing and preparing prints for the Rejuvenation restival next weekend. I’ll be vending, live painting, and playing music with Amanita. Should be a good time!
