After my Saturday punk show, I visited a few bars to see people I love, then bought two sushi rolls and a bouquet of flowers and treated myself to a Valentine's Day dinner at the last bar of the night.

We all need to hear it. Even me. I'm also saying it for myself when I'm saying it to you and everyone else. We're all in this together, and we're all going to make it out together. I'm proud of how far we've come, and I promise we're all going to be OK. 💙

Don't take paid time off from work, only to waste those days being sick. Do not recommend, 0/10. (It's just a cold, and I think it's just about done.)

Not bad for a bad dress I picked up for $19, have no idea what it actually looked like off the hanger. Yup, royal blue velvet is definitely my thing. 💙

Fun with friends at @coloradopublic.bsky.social's annual staff party Saturday night. And more fun with friends after that.

They say imitation crab is the sincerest form of crab

Here's the previous time Fox31 decided to air my face. Same subject matter. youtu.be/vARQd7bualU

Surprisingly, Denver's Fox31 put my "face for radio" on TV again. youtu.be/38x4HkSxpm0

We let Gregg Deal of @deadpioneers.bsky.social take over The Punkyard this weekend, ahead of their show at the @gothictheatre.bsky.social next Saturday night. Here's what he did with his radio freedom. Some tickets for the show are still available: www.axs.com/events/12311...

Happy Pop-Tarts Bowl Day to all who celebrate

The only college bowl game that matters to me.

I'm happier, smarter, more confident, and more authentically myself at 57 than I ever was before. I'm not aging. I'm blossoming.

merry christmas to all of my trans bluesky siblings — if nothing else we have each other ❤️🏳️‍⚧️

holding a lot of space in my heart this week for my trans siblings for whom this is one of the toughest times of year 💜

Is "cheer" what I'm spreading tonight? Whatever it is, don't worry; you won't need penicillin.

Let me know if this isn't ok. Here is a Spotify playlist of Dana's amazing Punk Holiday mix. But I couldn't find Yidcore's The Punk Rock Chanukah Song. open.spotify.com/playlist/6dL...

The Denver Broncos are the first AFC team to clinch a playoff berth for the 10th time since 1970—the most by any team in the AFC during that span (1977, 1984, 1986, 1987, 1989, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2013, 2025). DEN advanced to the Super Bowl on 7 of the previous 9 occasions and won it twice (‘97,’98).

The annual festive but irreverent holiday punk show!

i love you trans people, we will be okay

I usually describe the taste of Malört as a cross between burning tires and that juice at the bottom of the kitchen trash can after you lift a full bag out of it.

Thanks @heynowdana.com for closing @indie1023.bsky.social's The Punkyard show with our cover of "You're A Mean One Mr. Grinch"!

I absolutely love who I am. And let me tell you, there is no other feeling like it in the world. If you've never felt like this, I sincerely can't wait for it to happen for you. ✨💖✨

For those who love hardcore, for those who love cover songs, for those who love Colorado artists ... plenty of all three this week! — Host @heynowdana.com

@profanity.accountant you're not gonna get much outta me

What kind of bread did you have at Thanksgiving dinner? We had slices of a sourdough turkey.

For those of you who have never been taught this: Never touch a Black woman's hair. Ever. Don't even ask. fashionjournal.com.au/beauty/hair-...

As I always do with boycotts, I urge: be tough with corporations, gentle with individual buyers. For some people, Black Friday sales are the way they get their kids jackets that fit, shoes that hold up to the weather. Yelling at them doesn’t help the cause.

And this is why I skipped my annual vacation to Baltimore this year. Am I afraid that I look like an immigrant? Not really. But it's not really a stretch to assume that at some point the authorities will start harassing trans people, too.

idk why everyone thinks the beatles were so great, they don't even know how many days there are in a week

SpaghettiOs, even right out of the can, is an underrated simple delight.

Sweater (dress) weather.

you deserve love. we all deserve love

Indie 102.3 is super stoked to present Punk Is Dad 7, January 3rd at the Gothic Theatre, featuring @deadpioneers.bsky.social and The Potato Pirates and @teamnonexistent.bsky.social. Tickets just went on sale yesterday! www.gothictheatre.com/events/detai...

Went to CU-Boulder as a pre-journalism major, saw a flyer for the college radio station, got so hooked on doing radio that I failed out of CU. My destiny suddenly seemed obvious.

I still think about this tweet every day.

every trans suicide is a murder every trans murder is a policy consequence and the bodies keep piling up as the elected officials who today tell us they care about us — ALL of them. — still label the hate against us as a “distraction” sorry, the funeral i went to last week was not a distraction

When the outfit matches the cocktail.

You are welcome Dana! And many more! Still listening to your show in the AM from back here on the east coast! You're one of two NPR stations I have been supporting and will continue to do so! Public Radio is so much more important recently and we all need to support both NPR and PBS! Stay safe!

Huge thanks @heynowdana.com closing tonight’s Punkyard show on @indie1023.bsky.social with our song HIT IN THE FACE!

L'Shanah Tovah U'metukah to everyone who is observing Rosh Hashanah. Wishing you all a sweet and healthy year ahead. 💖

And I'll keep saying it. Every single morning. 💖 We all need to believe this, and we all need to believe in each other. The dark of night is always eventually followed by a sunrise, right? ☀️

I want to learn how to dance like Kate Pierson of The B-52's.

Happy 4th rebirthday to me. Thank you for helping me get here. 🥹💖🎂

Radio has literally saved my life twice — in my past life, and again in my new one. So you'd better believe National Radio Day means the world to me. ✨🥹✨

How hard is it for people (well-meaning or otherwise) to understand that the word "trans" is an adjective and not a noun?

If you loved that, listen to The Punkyard this Saturday night at 6 on @indie1023.bsky.social for another new Cheap Perfume song!
