I don't think cis people can comprehend how radicalising it is to spend any significant portion of your life wanting to not be alive until the solution you find happens to be the same one that western civilization suddenly decides it wants to kill you for taking

There is no other group where the president of the United States of America can go on national television, say "no more of these people," and the response is crickets. He didn't say trans people were stealing an election. He didn't say we should be deported. He said we should not exist.

This is the best encapsulation I have seen of what it means to be trans right now. And how deeply it hurts to see the moment with clarity. Read it.

Time for #Canada to open up its refugee program to Americans impacted by these cruel and inhumane rulings.

Once again for the 'that doesn't affect me" crowd: this is a direct pipeline to also controlling women. No more pants. No more employment out of the house. No more 'anything the regime finds unflattering or not feminine enough'. Fuck the slippery slope, they're just steam rolling. You're next. You.

I really try not to only post about the horrors trans people are facing, but everyone needs to understand that this is genocide. Your average trans person is basically chronically depressed because society wants us dead. Imagine if the state came up to you and took your medication away

It's always this.

If you want to stand up against fascism, then you have to defend trans rights. It’s nonnegotiable. We all lose otherwise.

please help trans kansans and their families, if you’re able. everything helps.

A 2-in-1 of side-episodes in regarding #Sepultura. Meant to do this yesterday, but stress and distraction in general. The first is me and Duke's top songs. The second is our fave international music acts (outside the US or UK). open.spotify.com/episode/1Vxm... open.spotify.com/episode/1VDu...

A day late on my end, but here is the episode on Brazilian #metalmusic legends #Sepultura open.spotify.com/episode/6aSD... #Algorhythms #podcast #music #90smusic #brazil

The #1 reason I have been open about being a #transwoman since the start of the podcast. Because I was an egg for longer than most...and if I get shit for being trans, I can dish it back.

Every trans person who insists on being seen is a living map for those still finding their way.

As per the change in cover image, the episodes on Brazilian metal legends #Sepultura will be uploaded this weekend. Tomorrow, I probably will send the editor the episode files for #Mastodon and #LinkinPark

@jemelehill.bsky.social speaking truth. A known fact, but said perfectly.

You know what? Fuck it, putting it out now so it has the full #SuperBowl weekend for #BadBunny. Note: in this (recorded in January), I say that I thought Bad Bunny would lose the AOTY #Grammy to either #KendrickLamar or #LadyGaga ...well, that aged funnily. open.spotify.com/episode/236y...

#BadBunny and #Sepultura are officially at-the-ready to be uploaded.....the former just in time for #SuperBowl Sunday.

I do like and share a good deal of political posts as a left-wing trans woman in real-life. But I'm one that lets the shares and my involvement in local activism do the talking. Apart from doomscrolling/liking/sharing, I typically use this account to issue updates on the state of the podcast.

But some things I've been in talks about for 2027 episodes and beyond? * 5 year anniversary as a podcast (Aug 2028) will have us do a redux of our first episode ( #Queen). I've never been proud of that episode and I've grown as a speaker since then. * Birthday month picks for 2027-2029 are in-place.

Episodes that will be recorded in 2026 are: * #BadBunny * #Madonna * #SlyAndTheFamilyStone * #Tupac * Big 4 of Thrash ( #Anthrax, #Slayer, #Megadeth, & #Metallica) * #DefLeppard * #Rush * #BeachBoys * #KingGizzardAndTheLizardWizard * #Bjork * #KateBush [continued]

Uploads of new episodes have slowed to once every month or two. Money is getting tight until I have a new job. There's a hefty backlog of to-be-edited episodes. But the next one will be #BadBunny to capitalize on his #SuperBowl #halftime show.

this is a Canadian petition to uphold charter rights for transgender and minority communities if youre Canadian, please sign it. if youre not Canadian, please share it. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

This announcement alone is going to kill people and we need to prepare for that

Last part of the #IronMaiden weekend and it's discussing the solo career of #BruceDickinson, which I'm glad we did. #algorhythms #music #podcast #spotify #90smusic #heavymetal #metalmusic

Now for something I did for fun that was Iron Maiden-related. open.spotify.com/episode/5ho5... #Algorhythms #podcast #music #ironmaiden #eddieironmaiden #heavymetal #80smusic #metalmusic

Now for our favorite songs by Iron Maiden! It was a Top 50 from me and Duke for these #heavymetal legends open.spotify.com/episode/6yjj... #Algorhythms #podcast #music #metalmusic #Spotify #80smusic

As a #Thanksgiving weekend gift, it's time for dropping the Iron Maiden episodes! open.spotify.com/episode/1UoG... #ironmaiden #Algorhythms #podcast #nwobhm #HeavyMetal #Spotify

Tomorrow, #IronMaiden uploads begin on Thanksgiving weekend. Main episode (at 2 hours and 47 minutes) will be up at noon.

The episodes on Soren's favorite band ( #IronMaiden )will drop on #Thanksgiving weekend. We got: * A three-hour discussion and ranking on all 17 albums. * A nearly hour-long discussion and ranking of the solo albums of #BruceDickinson * Top 50 Maiden songs * Me making a tier list of Eddie designs.

The breakdown for this 3-in-1? * Duke did a #deftones run alongside #taylorswift , so he did a mini-review of their new album. * An addendum to our main #taylorswift episode giving our thoughts on the new album. * A sneak-peek of our #nineinchnails episode with our thoughts on their new soundtrack.

The Onion can re-run this today with D’Angelo swapped in for Prince RIP a(nother) legend @theonion.com @bencollins.bsky.social

Hearing of the passing of #D'Angelo is a gut-punch. I haven't delved into his discog as much as I should (have only heard *Voodoo*), but dude was MAD talented and unapologetic. I've told the rest of the crew about doing D'Angelo at some point in 2026--we unanimously agreed.

VERY tardy with this one, but here's Top @taylorswift songs. How much #Swiftie cred do I get by saying the 10-minute version of "All Too Well" is my #1? As for the rest of my list, strap into the episode. #algorhythms #podcast #musicpodcast #music #spotify #taylorswift #2010smusic #popmusic

In a bit of magic timing, the episode on #TaylorSwift dropped the same day as the release of her new album, #thelifeofashowgirl. This was recorded in April, so it won't have our thoughts on the new album. But stay tuned: me and Duke may have something up our sleeve for that.

So with #BadBunny announced as the #SuperBowl halftime performer, that means we'll be doing an episode on him and aim to get it released the weekend of the big game.

The return of @radredlink.bsky.social for his favorite band ( #Gorillaz ) may have netted us our funniest episode. Even if most of the jokes were potshots at me (which I took in stride). #Algorhythms #podcast #music #murdocniccals #2D #damonalbarn #alternative #Spotify #2000smusic

A brief Top Songs since it was only me that made a list for #BuddyHolly. Yes, the obligatory #Weezer referencing thumbnail was my idea. #algorhythms #podcast #music #1950s #TheCrickets #classicrock #rocknroll #spotify open.spotify.com/episode/3Flb...

I recall #BuddyHolly being a cozy time covering a #50s rocker...until it sunk in just how bad the sloppily-overdubbed posthumous stuff is. #Algorhythms #podcast #spotify #music #50smusic #classicrock #TheCrickets open.spotify.com/episode/6ktU...

It's one thing to lament loss of life and decry political violence, but this revisionism is shockingly dishonest and downright offensive to the millions of people Kirk targeted and upon whom he inflicted pain and misery. The man was a liar and a bigot who gladly hurt others to advance himself.

In an oopsie, my brain farted and forgot to post the updates for the #DreamTheater side-episodes. This is late, but you get a two-fer. One is Top Songs and the other is a personal Top 20 list of John Petrucci guitar solos. #Algorhythms #podcast #music #Spotify #prog #metal #90smusic #2000smusic

I'm going to make it known that I have playlists set up for my personal use to use on #Spotify until the end of the year. Once the new year rolls around, I'm hitting up playlist converters and switching over to #Deezer for the music listening on the podcast.

One of my personal gateways into #progrock, let alone #progressivemetal, everyone involved with #Algorhythms was excited to tackle #DreamTheater. #90smusic #2000smusic #metalmusic #Spotify #podcast #johnpetrucci #mikeportnoy #jameslabrie #music open.spotify.com/episode/6M5v...

We only had one side-episode for #postpunk icons #JoyDivision and their later #synthpop incarnation #NewOrder and it was a quick-and-dirty Top Songs done by my lonesome (Duke did give me his list). #80smusic #podcast #Algorhythms #alternative open.spotify.com/episode/5txJ...

While I'm in grippy sock daycare (PHP) instead of a vacation for my mental health, I can continue business. Due to a mixup on Victor's end, we're doing #JoyDivision and #NewOrder #PostPunk #Synthpop #80smusic #70smusic #alternative open.spotify.com/episode/08x9...

Welp, in an unexpected turn of events, #NineInchNails is a two-part recording. Part 1 was done yesterday and we had to make a split....we cooked HARD on #TheDownwardSpiral and #TheFragile from several different angles. Also, happy birthday to my IRL brother, Joey (he doesn't have a BlueSky).

Our original plan for #BlackSabbath was to do the recording in August ever since the tribute show was announced back in February. In light of the recent passing of #OzzyOsbourne, the episode (to be recorded throughout this month) has retroactively become a warts-and-all tribute to him and #Dio.

Tomorrow afternoon will be the #NineInchNails recording. We held it off for one week due to scheduling conflicts.

The last crop of #Genesis episodes involves us asking "Who was the better singer: #PeterGabriel or #PhilCollins ?" Not as easy to say when we're all fans of both. #algorhythms #podcast #music #progrock #prog #70s #80s #Genesis #stevehackett #mikerutherford #tonybanks #classicrock

For Part 2 of #Genesis, we list off our Top 50 songs by these #progrock to #80smusic pop titans. Spoilers, while we do like some #80s tunes enough to put them on our lists, the #70s were this bands' creative peak.
