Hey, all! I’m a #musician, a #fiberartist, a #seamstress, a #book dragon, a #boardgamer and #videogamer, and in general, I never met a craft I didn’t at least want to try. Transmen are men, transwomen are women, abortion is healthcare, and science will save us. GenAI is theft; stop using it.

(Link to schedule in post) Background is a dark rose pink with a pattern of lighter pink diamonds and hearts. Slightly off center to the right is 1920s illustration of a rather androgynous couple dressed for cold, standing on skis and leaning towards each other for a kiss. They are both wearing similar clothes (boots, leggings, long sweaters, and winter hats) and are of similar height and build. The title reads “Station W2S Presents: the Speakeerie; A ghost train gatsby party on twitch.” Underneath that reads: “Sunday, Feb 8. All times Pacific Railway Time.” The schedule follows: 3p Windowstosky - The Broken Clock 4 DJLadyLindy - ElectricJazz Age 5 HollyFrostSwings - Tin Pan Pop! 6 SpeakeasyRay - House Of Bamboo 7 AnnieBurbankPiano - Ragtime To Rat Pack 8 Overkill Jill - Lovesong Standards 830 WindowstoSky - Movie/Knight with Intermission by Apryl_Knight 1130 DJellafine - Bewitched, Bothered, Bewildered 1230 RadioOTA - Tales From The Talking Box WindowstoSky - a Rite, Thrice a Day At the bottom reads, “Celebrating Popular Entertrainments [sic] from the 1920s-1950s”

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that Chaski adores Jane Austen and her work 📖. It's the 213th anniversary of the publication of Pride & Prejudice by #JaneAusten! Come to our Women's Work concert Sun Feb. 1 @3pm to celebrate! #Chaski40th

I added a page to the website where you can send a little love note to folks in Minnesota.

I keep getting lovely emails about how people are inspired by the resistance, but I would like to actually put these together for folks on the ground to read when they need to.

Here's another tableau vivant from one of Chaski's videos, which are great to watch when you're iced in. Bring a friend to our Feb. 1 concert to hear flute, bass flute, and Native American flute! www.chaskimusic.com #whistle #chaski40th @flautadita60.bsky.social @shanahipharpy.bsky.social
Whistles come in handy in all kinds of (ahem) situations, magic or otherwise. Another tableau vivant from a Chaski video, this one with a scene from "Magic Flute" by Marc Chagall, imitated on the right by Adita holding a vertical flute laying on a blue background with blue wings and a white dove with a red tail with the lettering "from Magic Flute by Marc Chagall" and "Magic Whistle by Adrienne Inglis" Visit https://www.chaskimusic.com to learn more about our 40th anniversary season! ¡Visite https://www.chaskimusic.com para obtener más información sobre nuestra temporada del aniversario cuadragésimo!

Fun timeline synchronicity -
A post from Foxes In Love followed by a post from Frog and Toad Bot. In the first, A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are walking somewhere, and Green is in a bad mood. Green: I hate wind. How it pulls and pushes and tugs me. And I hate the cold. A draft straight to my bone marrow! The air's too dry! A bird is singing! An unseen bird sings one clear, beautiful simple note, and Green turns to look up to it in anger. Blue looks at Green calmly. Green: Shut up! Blue: You need a soda. Drinking a beverage with a straw, Green is immediately mollified. Green: I'm sorry for getting on your nerves all day. Blue: I've been fine the whole day. The second post reads - “Shut up!” screamed Toad.
