We are heartbroken by the tragedy that occurred on Sunday, at what should have been a joyful celebration of our connection to each other through food. Our hearts are with the victims and their loved ones, and all those affected by this senseless act of violence.

Promo code TIMOTHEE is out. Promo code JIMOTHY is in. Had to make some updates to honor our new beloved furry friend of the same(ish) name. Use promo code JIMOTHY for 15% off tickets to Salome, today only. Offer ends at midnight 🦝

Text saying "use promo code Timothee" is crossed out. Handwritten below is "Jimothy." Text below reads "to save 15% on Salome tickets, today only!" A woman in a black dress and slicked back hair rests her hand on a cutout image of the raccoon Jimothy and stares powerfully at the camera.

"Furry Night at the Opera reminded me that both are, at their best, invitations: spaces built around passion, community, and the simple joy of sharing an experience with others. Art, it turns out, is for everyone." www.thestranger.com/furry/the-se...

The Seattle Opera Hosted Its First Official Furry Night - The Stranger

If this show is ever in your town PLEASE go see it. The performance was so deeply heartfelt and meaningful. They now have a wall behind the performance. it shows up at the end and has pictures of everyone who was discharged from the Army for being queer. As a queer veteran, this shit broke me.

Thomas Mallon's novel about two men who fall in love during the Lavender Scare is both a history lesson and a painfully beautiful tragedy. I got to interview Tom at @townhallseattle.bsky.social ahead of @seattleopera.bsky.social's run of the stage adaptation, which you can (should) see this week.

Thomas Mallon's 'Fellow Travelers' is a must for readers and Seattle Opera fans alike

Reading Thomas Mallon's 2007 novel, "Fellow Travelers," I couldn't help but think it was always destined to become an opera.
