February 2026

Cuties,

It’s my birthday in a few days - won’t you please consider donating to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota (or a similar organization in your community) to celebrate me and my fellow Aquarians’ birthdays :)

Show time: I’m doing a show with the Bisque on 2/12 at 7pm at BCC as a guest of The Good Time! And then I’ll head right over to Bar-Prov at Young Ethel’s at 8:30pm. I’m doing another season of Bar-Prov on the 8:30 house team and as a reminder, it’s free and fun! It’s the first 2 Thursdays of the month, so come on down and watch some comedy.

Also, big news on the Officer Scott front (for those new here, a clown show I’ve been in for a few years, starring Sloan Brettholtz): we have an instagram! We’ll be doing a bunch of shows coming up in NYC (and later abroad), so give us a follow and you can stay up to date.

The good news is, because everything is so fucked in this country, I’m not having my usual crash-out about turning older. Small blessings! I’m really grateful for community, and for artists and friends, bread and roses, bravery and humor. Just to really pile on the cliches, here are three: there are more of us than them, this is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius, and solidarity forever.

Hugs, and here’s to another year of kicking fascists in the face and wearing fake mustaches,
