Was told that someone said they didn’t want to hang out with “that Portland hippie” (me) and, like, whatever, I didn’t particularly want to hang out with them either. But I also feel an urgent need to let them know that I’m not a hippie.

Closed up my Shopify store a while back because they refused to de-platform Libs of Tik Tok. There are plenty of other options for punk labels to host their webstores. Fuck Shopify.

Ok so we spent 15+ years giving away our power to a handful of tech billionaires by going “all in” on social media and all we’ve got to show for it is fragmentation and division. Sitting here wondering what the move is. How do we build community and go back to sharing cool shit off the internet?

alright you wanna know how to support trans people? hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit. Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.

“Capitalism is a game that we don’t have any opportunity to opt out of. This song is about navigating that as a neurodivergent-chronically-ill-transgender woman. It often feels that we’re just cogs in the machine.”
