In this moment of trans repression, I am extremely grateful to @NoDepression.bsky.social for welcoming me to ask a hard question: is the music community prepared to let trans voices be silenced?

Thanks to teaching another fun Girl Guitar class, I learned tonight that I've been singing the hook to "Real World" by Matchbox 20 wrong for 25 years. I've always sung "I wish the real world would just stop BADGERING me." Turns out it's "hassling me." I stand by my choice. 😂

A two panel cartoon depicting the Egyptian god Anubis at a desk with a scale.

Panel 1: Anubis saying "YO WHADDUP, IT'S YA BOI ANUBIS, BACK AT IT AGAIN WITH ANOTHER SOUL UNBOXING VIDEO"

Panel 2: Anubis placing a tiny charlie Kirk on the scale with a feather, saying "NOW AS YOU CAN SEE, THIS ONE IS A LITTLE HEAVIER THAN A FEATHER, WHICH LONGTIME VIEWERS WILL KNOW IS REALLY BAD HAHA"

I Stand with Justice Sotomayor.

Graphic from Aclu with text of Sotomayor dissent "We should not have to live in a country where the government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent."

This record starting with the 1-2-3-4 punch of
1. Spark

3. Black-Dove (January)
4. Raspberry Swirl
is just DIABOLICALLY GOOD. Like nothing touches Tori, really.

I don’t want any guests to die on Hot Ones. To be extremely clear I do NOT want that to happen. I just think it would cause a lot of conversation that could ultimately be productive.

All I’m saying is if you really need to stan a white guy politician, maybe support the guy who wants to actually protect LGBT rights.

Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · Aug 22

Illinois is launching a first-of-its-kind legal hotline for LGBTQ+ individuals — Illinois Pride Connect.
