Welcome To The New Cause

Oh, hey. Yeah I forgot to mention that I have a brand new video! The video is sort of a public service announcement/mini-documentary on the struggles faced by shadow puppets during the daytime hours. It's kind of sad, but I think it's important because it really exposes people to this little known problem being faced in puppet communities worldwide.

If you're going to get behind a cause, this is the one to support. These shadow puppets are facing daily bouts of severe depression, ridicule from their sock puppet cousins, and discrimination from employers who remain insensitive to their disability. Things are even worse for shadow puppets residing in the upper latitudes, such as in Alaska, where months of continuous daylight are causing the suicide rate to skyrocket.

Anyway, watch it. Tell your friends. Make posters and bumper stickers. Hold rallies. Tell Bono.
