growing up, other kids told me i was dumb & gay & a girl. turns out they were right..

Because of the National driver register, since their licenses are suspended, trans folks cannot move to another state and get a new license until they remove the suspension on their existing Kansas license. They can't even escape this by moving to another state.

i only write on substack when somebody dies lol

rip to my favorite composer/artist/proposer of sound, i would be close to nothing without her

sometimes trans women get ideas above their station. that’s why it’s important to cancel them periodically

Ragger - 𝙀𝙪𝙥𝙝𝙤𝙣𝙞𝙘 𝙎𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙨 - lovingly reviewed in @pitchfork.com by @purityolympics.bsky.social: "By representing antiquated musical styles with vigorously bright and cheery tones that would sound equally vintage in 1976 or 2026, Ragger exit the time flow and ask for the music to be taken as it is."

went long on joplin and @hausumountain.bsky.social's new ragtime covers album pitchfork.com/reviews/albu...

To correct slightly, it IS the Method, just not Strasberg's bullshit version of it. Meisner (Duvall's teacher) & Adler (Brando's) are the closest the West got to where Stanislavski actually ended up, rather than Strasberg, who ripped a page from the middle of the book.

writing about an album that is the auditory equivalent of this

people get surprisingly pissy when you won't do insurance fraud for them

In the greater story of Minneapolis’ resistance to ICE, one chapter absolutely belongs to the punks organizing at every level. They’re observing, fundraising, running supplies, opening their spaces, coordinating, etc. A story for @rollingstone.com. Thanks to everyone who spoke on the record.

oops you can buy new tapes of my old album yippee

it's unbelievable to me that someone could actually be a trillionaire. i think most of us have trouble internalizing how much money that truly is. let me put it in simple terms for you: a trillion dollars is three million dollars

Wong Kar-wai’s In The Mood To Meet Up And See Where Things Go

don’t mind me I’m just “living in the moment” (never having any idea who anybody is and shedding near-term memory like a lizard losing its tail)

It just hit me that Justin Bieber inviting lil b to pop up on his album called Swag was like a land acknowledgement for the word swag

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

wait they removed Bovino? maximum respect to the people of Minneapolis: you did this. power to the people forever

You know me I don't share fundraisers unless I can tell you I trust them with my whole heart and my own wallet. This one gets protective gear to legal observers in Minneapolis / Saint Paul www.gofundme.com/f/help-equip...

Nuremberg for ICE but it's just a firing squad

Ekko Astral presents: "Songs for Coalie"

i think the best thing about hyperdub and planet mu was that they realized everything they were doing before finding out about footwork was not as cool as footwork

“Minneapolis learned a lot from the George Floyd protests and it shows. Well before Kristi Noem announced DHS operations in Minnesota, the neighborhood got ready.” New: a dispatch on mutual aid in South Minneapolis. www.nplusonemag.com/online-only/...

NEW — ICE violence has spread well beyond Minneapolis, with agents landing in small cities like St. Cloud. I spoke with Alice Valentine, a local queer trans woman, who protested ICE on Monday and was pepper sprayed, beaten and jailed as a result, along with her girlfriend. This is Alice's story:

Trans people: "Fix your hearts or die!" Scott Adams: ok *dies*

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen *Everyone has stories like this*

in case you hadn't heard -- we finally decided the 50th anniversary of Rough Trade was an appropriate time to get back together ... been a strange ride remembering the songs!

It would appear that uncritically funding the people that hate us so much that they mint coins commemorating body counts instead of listening to the people who said that the institutional rot within the police is so deeply engrained that they represent a danger to us all has mysteriously backfired.

I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK

Here is the fundraiser for Renee Good’s wife and son, from a very trusted source.

Far as I got with this idea

About an hour ago, @axios.com was first to report that some Dems will be pushing their caucus to shut down DHS at minimum over the ICE shooting today

The Mexican police will kidnap a bus full of activists, torture them to death, and then burn the bodies and they still fucking riot get the fuck over yourselves we all did the this yall are saying is impossible 5 years ago. Either we fucking act or they kill more Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

autotune karaoke was invented as a form of public self-flagellation

a lot of u t4t ppl treat "Trans" as a Gender in and of itself and it's really, really fucking obvious.

Reminiscing on the greatest moment in the history of NTS radio (the Scratcha special in which he tried to identify “the Pulse X of classical music”)

i love being the first transgender marxist ideologue that all these suburban babies meet
