Marc @omgnyc.bsky.social · Nov 8
Allow me to reintroduce myself, my name is Marc and I've been writing about music on OMG!NYC since 2006 and started my Substack, The Shape of Music to Come, in 2021.

I mostly post about music with the occasional comments on social justice issues.

Peace + Love, y'all! ✌️ ❤️

The only people who view swastikas as anything other than hate symbols are Nazis. Fucking NAZIS.

U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

I got to see the Stone Roses, Oasis, and Pulp, but never Blur* so I'll forever be sad about this in terms of not completing the Britpop Grand Slam.
