I have not been clocking into many shifts at the cute factory lately but tonight I did

man I’m sorry to be all corny here but when I see a “the city is beautiful! There’s more to it than homeless people!” I gotta say you know who’s also beautiful? People who have no place to live & are trying to get by in a system that has turned its back on them & if you don’t see that that’s on you

God DAMN what a beautifully interesting interpretation and homage. Fuckin’ love this. asherwhite.bandcamp.com/album/jessic...

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.

the new ratboys record is out today. i’m so thrilled everyone finally gets to hear it. enjoy it, soak it in. you’re not alone

The new @mollyomalley.bsky.social song rocks. Warm, fuzzy, dreamy.

always disorienting when you say it out loud that minnesota is still under occupation

Doing art badly is good and sacred

Something I don’t have any control over that hurts me a lot is my dog’s incessant thirst for goose shit

Spending some time with the culture of my people* *eating at a sizzler in Pocatello

Ratboys is a perfect band because you can always feel how much they love each other and how much fun they’re having.

The end justifies the means. But what if there never is an end? All we have is means.

I can always feel it in my bones when a movie is about to have a Courtney Barnett needle drop.

Pedro the Lion band shows in March, April and May. 30th Anniversary Celebrations! Tickets on sale now: pedrothelion.com/tour-dates/ Poster by Travis Quam.

The toxic rot at the heart of this slowly collapsing Empire is weaponized transphobia. The only way to fight it, like the prerequisite for fighting it, is absolutely unimpeachable full throated stentorian acceptance, support, and allegiance to trans people. Anything less is capitulation.

Had a nice time playing solo in my hometown on Friday. Shot by “Cowboy Fine Art Photographer” on insta

A MIGHTY WIND is a perfect film and one of the great boomer texts

To international eyes, it may seem strange Americans are resisting the rule of a tyrant when we've happily allowed one magical groundhog to decree the changing of seasons for 140 years, yet from Ratatouille to Chuck E Cheese we see the innate American desire to be be controlled by an immortal rodent

What’s an album that you deeply love but whose album cover you deeply hate?

Girl Moment

getting laid <<<<< getting laid on

I need a one night stand but instead of sex I just need someone to come put their full body weight on top of me while we watch adventure time fully clothed

Get in loser, we're going to put our bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, to make it stop

Essentially, the "it's okay to be thin" opinion pieces aren't about giving people permission to feel how they feel about their bodies. They're about reassuring people that their desire to be thin isn't the result of a profound, ubiquitous cultural bias against fatness & bigotry toward fat people.

It is 100% a culture war. There is no value in this dogshit. None. Look, the WORST people want you to use AI. Corporate America. CEOs. Management types. Republicans. Trump. No one you respect or admire is saying it's good.

Mutual Aid by Dean Spade is free on Libro for the next week (until 2/2).  We know that books can't fix everything, but they can help us show up for and strengthen our communities. Our employee book club read this last year, leading to a great discussion. We hope that it helps others do the same 💗 ⏬

Check out this musical tour of Salt Lake City from @brosaleigh.bsky.social!

Ate hotdogs, got tiki drinks, and holed up in a snowstorm with Ratboys, who've never sounded more like their truest selves than on this album

I went too long without listening to this song on repeat again but DON’T WORRY I fixed that 😤 music.apple.com/us/album/cro...

You cannot buy the revolution. You cannot make the revolution. You can only be the revolution. It is in your spirit, or it is nowhere.

We're each of us alone, to be sure. What can you do but hold your hand out in the dark?

I love love loved this one because I just got to gush about local bands I loooove

It’s always a good time to listen to Pile but especially this song music.apple.com/us/album/the...

Tom Homan looks like a guy whose sole thing is getting impotently angry at two of the Marx brothers torturing him at his lemonade stand

i don’t think “screwed the pooch” really says as much as “fucked the dog” does

me? oh yeah, fine. I'm doing great. just sort of left my body for a second to observe the current moment and my place in it from a high angle, sort of like what I imagine you'd see from a spy satellite? but one that can look through time? but yeah, I'll have that report done by the end of the day

There's a fantastic crowd of folks at the Utah Capitol in support of trans healthcare this afternoon. So glad that people were able to make time on a Tuesday afternoon to show up. I'll do a sloppy live thread of the hearing as they get started.

One small thing you can do today: ICE is ramping up in Maine. Food For All is delivering meals to 300 families that can't leave their homes. They need $7k a day to continue operations. The Culture Study community is raising enough to cover a day—join us? Donate directly: givebutter.com/Scx87A or
