happy pride month

I'll be LIVE on the ACTUAL RADIO this evening! Show begins at 7pm (in about 3 hours) and I'll play a ~30-minute set at some point after that. You can listen online! kfjc.org/live/ The theme is women covering songs by men...

i feel like they were going for something different than why i took the photo

Look, plantar fascitis sucks but I think this guy has bigger issues going on

LOLs from the neighborhood UPS store:

Sweet merch spoils from this evening’s metal show: Sepultura, Exodus, Biohazard, and Tribal Gaze. Excellent show; I’ve been wanting to see Biohazard and Sepultura since the mid-1990s…

A disaster has befallen Legotown. 😱

ACAB. And a lot of them are not terribly bright, either. Fucking assholes.

The idiot cop still gave her a ticket for holding her phone. The charge was dismissed.

Well, I haven't had a drink since Monday night. I'm pretty painfully sober, and I thoroughly hate it. My body needed a break for sure, but I really don't like existing in this particular branch of reality without alcohol. Wearing this shitty broken-ass meatsuit sober sucks hard, too.

I'm concerned people think I'm joking about this.

What lizard? 👀

This country is so beyond both parody and satire that it has become the embarrassing embodiment of both wholesale.

A PhD student at Stanford noticed her classmates were asking Al to write their breakup texts. So she ran a study. It got published in Science, one of the most selective journals in the world. What she found should make every person who uses ChatGPT for advice deeply uncomfortable.

Here's my parenting tip: Stop making laws that hurt LGBTQ+ kids.

The comparison I heard was data centers using the same amount of water as golf courses, and for that I was all, my brother in Christ, let me tell you what I think we should do with golf courses

be the dad you needed as a kid

wine makes u sleepy is why it’s called Napa Valley

Practicing electric cello & vocal live-looping tonight! First stream since 4/30. Starting in 23 minutes... www.twitch.tv/unwoman

KAT WON. FUCK ICE.

Tomorrow night in Oakland! Halou (with whom I play Rhodes and sing backup) is on last.

Feeling bone tired and full of despair this morning. I want a reason to feel hope, instead of 50 more reasons to feel disillusioned or tired. What I don't need is to be rewarded for my diligent work with more tedious bullshit. But tedious bullshit is the only thing on the docket, apparently.

Just for fun. 💙🤘 Composition popped into my head the other day, and I wanted to get it on paper. My very first coyote (Canis latrans)! I think he's adorable! 🤣🤘🐾 #Coyote #roadrunner #nature #wildlife #animal #animalart #illustration #funny #drawing #art #Arizona #TotesAdorbs #ArtYear #bskyart

State Rep. @jasmineclarkforga.bsky.social wins the Democratic primary in the vacant #GA13, @decisiondeskhq.bsky.social projects. Clark is now poised to become the first Black woman PhD scientist to serve in Congress. My interview with her here: 19thnews.org/2026/05/geor...

this is what some of you look like in short sleeve button-up shirts

I am doing my best. My best is pretty shitty at the moment, as I'm always tired because of sleep apnea. CPAP is really hard to tolerate, I manage to wear it 2hrs tops before tearing it off in my sleep. I want a vacation, the real kind where I don't have to work at all.

Alex Haley grew up in Tennessee. He traced his family tree back to his original enslaved, African ancestor, then wrote 'Roots'. He received a Pulitzer Prize for it. Knoxville just banned it 'cause it might make white kids sad.

watched this on repeat losing my shit for two nights now

The roots of our privilege are soaked in blood

Watching The Pitt to cheer myself up. Seeing competent fictional people saving lives and helping the sick and maimed beats just getting drunk and hating myself. I wish I’d chosen a useful career path. I don’t know if my extreme empathy response would have made it through med school, though…

Watercolor from the great @artologica.net.

Another night where I had free time to myself but utterly ran out of spoons once the professional & domestic work I needed to do got done. I wish someone had told me ten years ago that my quality of life would begin a rapid decline starting at 40. It just keeps getting worse and worse.

Gas Pump: Do you want a receipt? Me: No, I'd rather forget this whole experience.

Morning Kitten “The perfect box does not exis—“

I am the Great Betrayer. (I have given the indoor cats their monthly dose of Advantage II flea medication.) I feel so awful stressing them out by the surprise of putting the cold stinky stuff on their little necks. 💔😿🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ Hopefully they will forgive me soon.

Feeling pretty fucking burnt out and used up. Weary of this endless stupid Sisyphean slog that is every goddamned day, with no creative respite or significant break in sight. Never get enough rest. Always wake up exhausted.

I cannot wait for The Day That It Happens. There's a nice bottle of champagne in the fridge, already cold, to celebrate that fetid orange fuckwit's passing. The world will rejoice.

I'll probably have so many microplastics in me when I die that when my body decomposes it'll leave behind a 1:1 scale model of me

Happy birthday John Brown. Let no historical figure off the hook for moral cowardice with the “man of his time” argument. For he too was a man of his time, and he saw the institution of slavery for what it was, and judged it with a conscience that burns as bright in any age. RIP to a real one.

I have an idea. With this whole hantavirus thing, why don't we overreact early, just a bit, and then we can calm down after it turns out it's fine?

One side is like “can we disenfranchise all the Black voters by this weekend” and the other is like gotta follow the rules that govern the rules that control the rulebook

As a young person, I don’t think I ever realized how painfully boring and crushingly lonely adulthood would be. Youth, beauty, and freedom are wasted on the young.

The most hilarious part of this is that the recall only affects 173 total vehicles, because that's all Tesla's sold of its rear wheel drive model.

I had a little free time tonight between day job, dishwashing, and evening child care. Was gonna attempt a tiny bit of luthiery work, after accomplishing NOTHING in months. But then, as I finished the dishes my back & neck started spasming. FML. I want a refund for this shitty meat suit.

"We in the United States have done so much to destroy our own resources, our timber, our land, our fishes, that we should be taken as a horrible example and our methods avoided by any government and people enlightened enough to envision a continuing economy."
