So kudos to all the singers out there for doing the impossible every day.

[David Salsbery Fry @TryTheFry]

A corollary to Zeno’s dichotomy paradox: singing is impossible. A microtonal instrument like the voice will never be able to arrive on a pitch after departing another pitch as the distance one needs to traverse is functionally infinite.

We have fight choreographers so performers don’t get hurt. We have intimacy choreographers FOR EXACTLY THE SAME REASON. Not all injuries are physical, y’all.

@LeemanKessler An absolutely amazing performance, sir. Loved it!

We’re at 20% of our goal in only three days! Thank you all so much for your kindness and generosity. Please continue sharing the campaign and consider donating if you are comfortably able to do so.

A truly inspiring teacher, writer and advocate needs our help after being walloped by a cancer diagnosis. If you are comfortably able, please give what you can. https://t.co/ODUz1bmkSa

@OhHayNayNay This is how this showed up in my feed. I enjoyed the juxtaposition.

[David Salsbery Fry @TryTheFry]

Once again for the people in the back: diversity without disability is ableism. It’s not our job to wait our turn until all other issues of equity are solved - if we are not part of the conversations you are having, you are part of the problem.

@nbd_foundation I propose either “Coagulation Conflagration” or the “Clot Hop”.

Representation matters.

[David Salsbery Fry @TryTheFry]

I’ve been a fan of the X-Men since the ’90s. To my knowledge, this is the first time this character with a disability will be portrayed by an actor with a disability, and that means more to me than I can possibly express. Learn more at https://t.co/OJOCDZQnvh.

I’m beyond excited to announce that I’m the voice of Charles Xavier (Professor X) in the new interactive series “X-Men: Age of Orchis” for @MarvelMove, a new offering from @Marvel Entertainment and Six to Start, the company behind @ZombiesRunGame.

I wrote something about opera, biconceptualism, accountability culture, and why we have sex offender registries. You can read it here: https://t.co/NS4M0qIieI

SEEKING NEW MANAGEMENT FOR OPERA

I’m looking for new representation for opera and concert work, with a twist:

Since disclosing my hemophilia my income as an opera singer is down 95%. No company that hired me before the disclosure ever hired me again after the disclosure… 1/6
