To recap:
•Universal healthcare would save 68,000 lives & $450B annually
•Every $1 spent on SNAP results in $1.80 boost to local economies & small businesses
•The child tax credit decreased child poverty to a historic low of 5.2%, abolishing it increased it by 45%

Not enough characters in a tweet to explain my thoughts on how improvisation isn’t actually “free” and in fact has more deliberate vision and strategizing ahead of time than a lot of straight forward songwriting has but I use the analogy of having a conversation with someone you know regarding this

really miss (recording &) mixing bands, (producing &) mixing records, the vibrant queer nightlife i helped grow
there were a few good years there before injury, disability & marginalization caught up to me
i sacrificed a LOT for lack of support
i want an accessible version that doesn't burn us up

Transition is a practice of self-abolition, and it demonstrates that abolition involves both destroying/ending and building/creating in a way that threatens all ideologies of natural right, of hierarchy and power with a simple gesture of desire and self-knowledge

The existence of trans and nonbinary people is something that benefits even cis people. There is no universal experience of being female or being male. No longer gatekeeping who gets to be what frees us all.

Today, November 20th, is the International Trans Day of Remembrance; and amidst the near constant attacks on trans people from all sides I think its a day to remember, but also to support those who are struggling. Support trans artists, give to mutual aid, speak out in support, take fucking action.

remember that these people oppose trans healthcare for children because giving children agency over their bodies makes it harder for them to get away with preying on them and they see themselves entitled to sexually abusing children

Sucks that it needs to be said but please make sure you’re actually downloading your purchases off Bandcamp and not relying solely on the app for listening. Fidelity aside, you cannot rely on the precariousness of someone else’s server for anything.

i have exclusive dubplates that deserve to be presented appropriately - i want to shine & spark joy, wonder, and curiosity for active listeners and immersed dancers - i need assistance to do this!
where in Pgh can a disabled dj go to spin records on a decent sound without having to haul the speakers turntables and mixer?
this is an ask for accessibility and inclusion sake:
i would love to share the fruits of my record collection for a dance but don't have the capacity to push boxes anymore!

Required reading to understand the groypers
I've noticed that there isn't much talk here about the current internecine war that is unfolding on the right, spearheaded in large part by Nick Fuentes, Tucker Carlson, and Candace Owens after the assassination of Charlie Kirk. I know this shit is insane and feels bad. But this is a mistake (1/)
