Before the Tonys, I interviewed Stephanie Hsu on #RockyHorrorShow @joysauce_.
That's right. The Oscar-Tony nominee talked to me about the upside of being a Rocky Horror Virgin, that line in LAID she pitched, and Sam Pinkleton's instructions on callouts.

I interviewed J-horror director Yûta Shimotsu for #StrangeJunjiItosTalesforSleeplessNights and a bit of #NewGroup, his hilarious body-horror conformity parable streaming on Shudder. At #NYCC, I talked to him about the horrors of conformity.

I took my evening half off my day job to attend this hard-to-access play. About 6 hours before showtime, it canceled my RSPV due to cast illness. So this takes away half of my day work shift.
I’m just spending my AMC A-List, right now.

It's such a grim reminder of how evil the animation industry can be that this man dedicated his life to his craft and voiced some of the most iconic characters ever created for a massive corporation and his family ISN'T set for life after he passed away
A GoFundMe has been launched to support Eric Bauza’s son, Ryker, and Ryker’s mother, Jessica Borutski, following his sudden passing. 🤍
Organized by Oliver and Natasha Vaquer, the fundraiser has raised $44.8k of its $70k goal.
If you’re able, please consider donating or sharing to help the family.

Obviously, this didn't happen, but why?
It already got a fun stage musical and even a rare abridged animated musical adaptatation.

ANYWAY,
I wrote about Godzilla in New York. You know, the Asian Americans & Pacific Islanders activist-art collective named after the "anarchistic lizard."
It was published in 2024, but a writer's gotta ride the #GodzillaMinusZero wave. @joysauce_

As mentioned in my JoySauce piece, surviving Godzilla artists protested the Museum of Chinese in America (MOCA) for taking $35 million to permit a megajail construction in Chinatown (thanks, Mayor Bill de Blasio). It's an ongoing battle.

Read my @joysauce_ interview and I really can't recommend Yûta Shimotsu's #NewGroup enough (watch it on Shudder). It's this camp-comic satire on conformity wreaking social dysfunction and forming its own literal blob (pyramids).
The discourse over #GodzillaMinusZero is why I have a whole ethos about experiencing the entire art before exercising license to judge. Because we act like secondhand/thirdhand accounts (those who haven’t seen it) are legit.
Plus, like that professor was going through an arc.
So I have some news.
There’s a baby on the subway!
A human is carrying her meowing baby CAT in a bjorn wrap sling in this subway!
And that’s the news.
PACIFIC OVERTURES critics who invoke in Pearl Harbor in their reviews.
“Getting even with the Japanese for Pearl Harbor is a lot less vulgar than trying to pay them back for our embarrassment and guilt over Hiroshima [aka, this musical].”
