I hate queer Halloween because what do you mean you are the moon from Georges Méliès' A Trip To The Moon (1902) but the hear-me-out version.

hey do you want to see a bunch of people making little props and puppets in a lineage of craft dating back to 2000 BCE and using their free will to tell stories about puppet sex and rent control at the end of the world?

The Last Fifteen Minutes is such a beautifully crafted film about finding bittersweet solace and comfort and love in the face of unmitigated disaster, told with Shing's characteristic whimsy and humor and heart, and if you have the chance to see it immediately, you absolutely should 😭❤️
the full short film will be available after our festival run but Patreon and KS backers have access now!

There is a direct line from me posting dumb comics on Twitter leading to early Catapult work(specifically Nicole telling me to develop them) leading to my agent, leading to my books and that sort of thing feels impossible to recreate in the literary world today and I am so mad about that!!!

Catapult, and specifically @nicolechung.bsky.social as my editor, was one of the earliest venues to trust my work in all its messiness and angriness and I'll be forever grateful. I would not be the person I am today without that trust and I'm gonna mourn this one.
