In honor of Trans Awareness Month,
this is why my family supports and provides safe space for the trans and queer kids in our community. We have directly witnessed the positive impact.

Filling my house with good vibes. So much beauty in the world is easily found in oneness, connection, & community. Separation & othering breeds ugliness. May your day be full of connection, community & light. You are vast, powerful and loved.

Always honored when people connect with what I do. It’s every artist’s dream to create work that endures. 🙏
This week marks the 15th anniversary of one of my all-time favorite ambient/drone albums: @swartzet.bsky.social’s “Nighttide.”
From my review: “Built around an array of Swartz’s soft, blurry drones, Nighttide lulls the listener from start to finish, and it’s uniformly lovely and affecting.”

“Nighttide” by Swartz Et (Review) - Opus
There’s a sense of slow burn here, a sense of movement towards a deeper, darker realm of sound that is only apparent in hindsight.

This tree reminded me this morning that the world is inherently beautiful and we get to be part of it. It’s only gets ulgy when we make it that way.

Walking in joy, love & acceptance is the ultimate middle finger. So I choose you & us in the one place in the solar system that we have to exist. You are not politics. You are not left or right. You are vast & complete. You are loved.

In honor of Indigenous Peoples' Day, here's some great reads from some authors from the Indigenous community that are also great autumn reads.

It's Indigenous Peoples' Day. Their history is part of our history. These were some eye-opening reads for me.

It's Hispanic Heritage Month. I always try to use cultural observances as an opportunity to read books from people in those communities. Here's a couple I've enjoyed from some Hispanic authors that also happen to be perfect for Halloween reading.

Completed another lap around the sun. Grateful to spend it making noise. I look forward to another feral year of sound, food, nature, and community. You are powerful. You are vast. You are not politics. We are radiant beyond measure if we aren’t conned into believing otherwise. Hugs to you all!

While spending the day in this special place, I was struck by the fact that this doesn’t exist anywhere else in our solar system. This is it. And we get to be part of it. The only home we have in a far-flung corner of a galaxy. A precious and sacred stewardship of vast importance.
