2026 challenge: unless you’re making physical objects by hand, take “crafts” out of your bio

We’ll be playing a live set tomorrow night (wed dec 10) on 91.5 WMFO Medford! Tune in 9-midnight or stream online if you’re outside of Boston at wmfo.org #collegeradio #bostonmusic #grunge

Oh hi 👋 we’re Astral Bitch. A heavy rock band from Boston for fans of The Jesus Lizard, The Breeders, and Screaming Females. Today is bandcamp Friday and your support there helps us get back in the studio and on the road to spread the riffs around. Thx 🙏 astralbitch.bandcamp.com/music

My name is Sam and I play guitar in a heavy rock band called Astral Bitch ( @astralbitch.bsky.social ) Today is bandcamp Friday and buying stuff from there helps us independent artist types A LOT more than sharing your Spotify wrapped and calling it a day. Thx 🙏 astralbitch.bandcamp.com/music

Noncommercial terrestrial radio, baby!

Look, I’m not hear to tell you what the best king gizzard record is for Thanksgiving, but if I had to? Sketches of Brunswick East

Still can’t get over messing up 21-0. This one is going to sting for awhile. #eagles

computer mice today are too light.

Ahead of a show at #TheModelCafe in Allston TOMORROW (9.4) with #AndyCalifornia and #MajorStars, @astralbitch.bsky.social dropped a pair of new tracks which we have lots of words on in our latest post up here: tinyurl.com/mrfsvpez @mnashty.bsky.social @samcoren.bsky.social #AstralBitch #RNRF

New Sounds: Astral B.itch's scorched earth single is a 'a rallying cry for youth frustrated by institutions beholden to corruption'. 🔗 vanyaland.com/2025/09/05/a... @astralbitch.bsky.social @vickiwasylak.bsky.social

Hit up astralbitch.com for advanced tickets to our March shows. 😎 #bostonmusic #grunge #salemma

Songs are better when they’re allowed to evolve over time. Being fixated on definitive versions kneecaps creativity and is gatekeepy af.

Elon makes planes crash.

Emerging from our Astral Cave soon

Have you ever tried practicing guitar with a puppy?

Feeling sad I can’t go to the Eagles parade tomorrow. Sounds like it’s going to be a Valentine’s Day to remember for a lot of folks. Expect a lot of new babies named Cooper, Jalen, Saquon, and Nick in November in the Philly metro area. #flyeaglesfly

We had a stupid amount of fun doing this. Had a blast engineering this puppy and playing keys on it. We’ll be playing at Moon Base One on March 29th too. 🌒

Super hyped to be playing this new all ages space in downtown Salem next month. All ages venues can be tough to come by in these parts. Wouldn’t be the same musician I am today without having access to lots of good live music.

I'm non-binary. This weekend an order was given to scrub the CDC of all research pertaining to gender, "non-binary" being on the list of "banned words." This is very bad. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

Genuinely curious for those who are using this platform as an FB or insta replacement and didn’t use pre-Elon twitter because you didn’t like the UX: what makes you think you’ll stick with bluesky?

It’s really hard to be someone who cares about the wellbeing of people & try to keep up with the news. I don’t have any faith in things getting better overall. The dreams of a better future for everyone just aren’t there. And no, this feeling isn’t “new” - it’s been like this for years and years.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

I will be continuing to call it the Gulf of Mexico because I don't cater to the whims of a ridiculous felon www.reuters.com/world/us/goo...

E A G L E S EAGLES GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL 🦅🦅🦅🦅 #flyeaglesfly

Cancer research canceled because capitalized healthcare industry profits must be protected I guess 🤷

Woof, that Section 31 movie was an incoherent slog to watch. Suicide Squad for Discovery fans? I’m not even sure Disco fans can even justify it. Michelle Yeoh deserved better. Who was this movie for? #startrek #section31

Living in a never ending Black Mirror episode is taking a collective toll on us, isn’t it?

Ignorance isn’t bliss, it’s lethal.

Today marks one week with our new pup. I am EXHAUSTED from training and monitoring this tiny little wolfie thing, but oh so full of love ☺️🥰

LA burns and those mf’ers are talking about buying Greenland and changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico.

Shoutout to the Los Angeles Times reporters who are doing essential journalism under very difficult circumstances. They’ve dropped their paywall, but their ongoing coverage is a good reminder of why local newsrooms need support — and what we lose when those outlets are hollowed out.

Every time I get a follower bump on here it’s usually because the oligarchs that own the other platforms did something distasteful to alienate their remaining users

I designed a thing and Mary Widow from @armyoftoys.bsky.social modeled it! 😌

It’s RAGEGIVING week! This Wednesday we’ll be back in Western Mass at Easthampton’s Marigold Theater with Viqueen and Problem With Dragons. Presale tix here $10-20 suggested donation: marigoldtheater.com/store/ragegi... Photos: v.artnh

An important reason to read every email is that you will learn about things like Walton Goggins launching his own line of eyewear called WALTON GOGGINS GOGGLE GLASSES. Like so.

Guess I should give this platform more of a shot now that more people are giving up on Twitter yet again. How you doing?

Doggo keeps walking to the pizza shop patio

Not sure what stage of grief binging below deck med is, but I’m there and I’m here for all the Hannah hot mess

It would’ve been cool if my buddy didn’t go off his meds and die on us. This loss stings like all hell. 😔

the Houston Texas school district is going to replace every library in schools with “discipline centers”. Fucking wild

Taking one of my bandmates to CAKE tonight 😊

It’s sort of insane how The Bear keeps getting nominated for stuff under the comedy category. Yeah there’s a bit of dark comedy sprinkled here and there and Matty is excellent comic relief, but every episode is an anxiety and depression rollercoaster. It’s definitely more of a drama.

This one goes out to my friends who are hyped to see both Oppenheimer AND Barbie this summer.

“Smelly frog, smelly frog, it’s not your fault”

Classiest playlist theme I’ve heard of in awhile

My band Astral Bitch is opening up for Boston legends Walter Sickert & The Army of Broken Toys this month at The Sinclair in Harvard Square. Get your tickets NOW for the show of the summer 😎☀️ https://www.sinclaircambridge.com/events/detail/480477

Oh nothing, just being an introvert accidentally sitting on the worst possible bench imaginable
