Can we just stop the spinning wheel games when you open up a retail website? We all know it’s sham.

Can we outlaw all coin cell batteries except CR2032 and LR44?

Does anybody else wish Instagram would de-emphasize reels sometimes? There are some artists who do amazing work but they only post reels. Many times I just want to look at good old fashioned pictures!

I am 100% just watching The Acolyte to see Yoda and if he doesn’t show up I’ll be so mad I sat through it all.

I made a replica of an early Space Shuttle coverall jacket. Started out as one of those space camp souvenir jackets, but I ended up replacing 70% of it. It wasn’t as accurate as I initially thought. Now it’s pretty spot on.

Excited to see this finally! I partnered with @FoncoStudios and made all the suits for this movie. I also have a small spacesuit-related role if the scene wasn’t cut! Watch the trailer @FlyMeMovie

I used the GB coverall pattern to make two more garments: an early space shuttle launch/entry flight suit and some vintage-style denim work coveralls!

I modified the Ghostbusters coverall pattern and made a 70’s late Apollo/Skylab-era flight suit. I’ve always loved the color of this suit and now I’ve got some nice coveralls to work in.

My friend Hanson Ma recently wore my Mercury spacesuit replica to his @artcenteredu graduation.

Here’s something quite a bit different from me. A super accurate Ghostbusters 1984 jumpsuit. I copied every detail of the original custom-made suits.

My own personal lunar overshoes. Nearly indistinguishable from the real thing. Same silicone and beta cloth. Chromel had to be substituted with a nickel copper fabric instead. Weathered with NASA lunar soil simulant (same composition as real regolith).

I had a very casual but very fun #AdamIncognito tonight at #DragonCon in my @ryannagata #FirstMan #spacesuit. And yes, even with all the amazing costumes, and zero announcement, I was discovered in a few minutes! That said, my friend @FonHDavis walked right by me, commenting on what a great costume I had on, without knowing it was me! #dragoncon2023

ICYMI, Adam Savage Meets the Spacesuits from First Man, with @ryannagata. Any ideas about why we'd be sharing this video right now? (Hint: Adam's at #DragonCon2023 right now.) bit.ly/44tk7e5
