Lots of coughing & sniffles going on around you? Stay purr-fectly protected by wearing a mask! 😷🐈

Previous generations fought fascism in nearly every corner of the earth. Today it’s on our streets, silencing opposition and attempting to control the airwaves.

The GOP has declared all out war on free speech. It’s up to us to fight for it.

Western Monarch butterflies in California are expected to go extinct by 2080 due to their typical overwintering spots being destroyed by human intervention, fires and more.

If you live in CA it's crazy easy to help conserve the species by providing a milkweed plant in your yard

Excellent discussion with Laura Burhenn of The Mynabirds about leaving Spotify—well worth a listen 🎧 . As we plan to put out new music soon, I will take this advice and use better platforms. Our art should not be financing war machines. Thanks for creating this @drownedinsound.bsky.social
