….at a special friend’s house in Vancouver, where I am collapsing after watching 80 TED talks almost in a row, on top of organizing and hosting an entire benefit show & livestream. I am happily destroyed. I have so much to share. Oh my GOD. My head is full of birds, bats, AI, the adjacent possible, solutions to overpopulation, why songs matter, and endless more. I have TED-head.

It will all wait.

Now I rest.

I also wanted to welcome aboard all the new patrons - HELLO! HELLO! HELLO!

Speaking of that - Gaba Kulka sent me this lighthouse picture and it made me laugh.

(Lighthouses are now officially Our Thing, my friends).

Two quick things while I recover the shit out of myself!

1. You can still watch the whole NINJATED show online here: https://www.crowdcast.io/c/ninjated

2. And you can still DONATE to the Greater Vancouver Food Bank through this special link we set up just for our event. We are about to rally what we raised - you’ve got til Monday/Tuesday to pitch in!! https://events.foodbank.bc.ca/fundraiser/ninjated





Big love

xx

Steven Panzek

Sleep well and rest up for next wknd

Julie Steele

Get some much deserved rest!

Carmen J

Rest well! I love you! xx

Stephen Elcheshen

I'm writing this on all the socials because I need you to know how amazing that show was. You brought more joy into my heart than I have experienced since before "the times". And my daughters will never forget meeting you. So many times in the last three years I've wanted nothing more than to reach through the interwebs and give you a hug. Thank you for being such a radiant beacon of hope.

Jen

❤️❤️❤️

Janet in Georgia

YES. LIGHTHOUSES ARE EVERYTHING. I actually have my long passed granny and grandpas photo in a little lighthouse shaped frame ❤️ Rest well sweet lady. Love you always.

angela b

Way to go! Can't wait for the TED review. For now, I hope rest and relaxation finds you, however short it may visit. Waving at you from Calgary! 😘🥳💗

Tamara

I can see the beacon from the tallest lighthouse in Florida from my patio -- (both about an hour away from Orlando). Very interested in your perspective of the AI talk from Grimesz. Time to process, then output, rest well! 🤖🧡

EmVT

HECK YES!!! it was epic--worthy of a victory lap ensconced in the cosiest of rooms :) TED sounds amazing too, thanks for taking us along 💜

Suzanne

It was amazing, as are you. Can't wait to see you (and everyone else) next week!

Lynn Robinson

Have a well deserved rest - can't imagine the mind blowing experience you've been through . Love and hugs ❤️🤗

Erinn Baldeschwiler

Rest & revivify Sister. (Now THAT'S and ampersand I hope you'd be on the other side of 😊🫶🏼🖖🏽)

And Steiner

Amanda, and AFP community, I'd like to say something more supportive and relevant but I am completely distracted by my desperate sprint for survival. I have created a petition to seek justice for the death of a transgender woman, Jean, and to get allegations of systemic mistreatment and discrimination against transgender patients in Massachusetts investigated. Please consider signing and sharing this petition: change.org/justiceforjean Otherwise I hope everyone is well, and don't forget to do Art no matter what (and don't forget that your life itself is your #1 artform). Tata I love you my beautiful beings. ♥️🧡💛💚💙💜

Dahlia Graham

You must be TED-head exhausted because I didn’t know you were capable of sending such a short email!! Loved tuning in to the Livestream, and everyone was awesome. You’re a natural on the stage and I could tell you were having fun up there kicking over chairs and all. Nice work on that uke auction. Excited for the Poughkeepsie show Friday! How is it less than a week away already?

Stacy Belinsky

I LOVE the lighthouse patch artwork!!! Still have to watch the stream.

Kathryn Moore

I am unfamiliar with the reference and in love with this patch. It has inspired me to make my own rendition of it. Who is the artist so that I may communicate my love and, earnestly, seek permission ?

Gaba Kulka

Glad it cracked you up. ❤ I didn't get to see you react to my instagram story, because it disappeared by the time I logged on. It's from Arcane Bullshit - they're amazing, and just the right kind of outrageously absurd. Sending you a ton of hugs!

Deniz Bevan

Love this, also because the lighthouse makes me think of Our Flag Means Death (which is never NOT on my mind :p )
