Utterly shocking that the country that invaded Iraq for oil and suffered zero consequences internally or externally is doing it again.

They should stop writing recipes for food processors. You can usually make the thing without them!!!! People used to make things before they were invented you know!!!!!!!!!! (I have one but I don’t like cleaning them.)

If there’s anything I’m never doing again, it’s forming a parasocial attachment to a politician. Some of the way people are posting it’s like noooo please stop you do not know these people! Please stop falling for this stuff again and again 😭

Marquette Park this morning, ~45 min ago at 70th and Washtenaw per anon FB post. Through a screen, someone films Border Patrol agents taking a man into a red minivan and driving away. Another angle of this shared to social media shows it happened in front of a daycare.

The worst part of moving is finally confronting all of your doom objects head on 😭

ICE / Border Patrol threatening to arrest a cyclist for following and recording in Chicago

Removed my music from Spotify tinyurl.com/chicagooffsp...

Hi ICE killed a single dad at a traffic stop here on Friday Today they are disappearing people again in broad daylight, they are everywhere If you have any national platform at all Chicago is fucking begging you, please help us

Someone has just annoyed me into changing my opinion about something :))) I genuinely love when this happens it feels like growth

The new song I’m working on has a few time signature changes and a section with an ambiguous key 😃 Idk how annoying this will be to play but I really don’t care!!!!

Every time I open Threads it’s like looking into an alternate universe where nothing of significance has ever happened and the most important thing going on is some niche interpersonal drama or some pop culture “debate” about an episode of S*uth P*rk.

I knew we were cooked as a society when everyone just sorta decided they were sick of dealing with Covid and everyone just decided to pretend like it wasn't a thing anymore.

Forgetting to post on here but I'm playing a show next Wednesday (July 2!) at Uncommon Ground! Come thru!!! www.eventbrite.com/e/alyssa-bra...

Mutual aid organizers are asking for help to buy new tents and to provide rental assistance for those who are now without shelter.

Today, Chicago Park District workers used heavy equipment to evict unhoused people from Gompers Park on the Northwest Side. While residents were given some opportunity to save belongings, all remaining tents and possessions were destroyed this morning.

All my sturdy guitar picks have gone missing and I can only find my bendy ones 😠

Every time a creamy soup recipe is like “now transfer hot liquid to a blender” I feel triumph because I have an immersion blender and it saves me from such nonsense

Descendant of a Japanese American WW2 Incarceree here to say it's never about "innocent" or "guilty" it's about who is a target for the state. Those in power will make you guilty/illegal if they want you to be and we must all see thru the bullshit. Free them ALL

I really need to work on not searching for context when someone makes a vague post about celebrity or internet drama I hadn't heard about. It's NEVER worth it! It's filling my brain with straight up garbage!!!!!!

I have a website www.alyssabray.com

Ok one of my hot political takes is how people use the word "brunch" as a pejorative. What did brunch do to anyone??? Is there something objectively wrong with hanging out with your friends and eating a waffle??????

I wonder if this recession will have affordable real estate lol

I've come up with a melody in 7/8 yesssss I've been wanting to write something in 7/8 for awhile

“They weren’t targeted”

Hoarding? No! Getting involved in mutual aid organizing? Yes! Collective crises require collective action.

OK can we PLEASE end the ""activism"" that's mainly yelling about celebrities' bad politics now I don't care if Gwen Stefani is a christofascist who rubs dirt on her forehead one wednesday out of the year this is not actually important

We warned them that cutting science budgets would mean decimation of cancer research.

I'm wearing a hoodie from high school sports today and when I realized how old it actually is................................👵🏻

Our free food and supplies distribution is every Saturday at 12:30pm, and takes place in the dining hall on the east side of Edgewater Presbyterian Church. We have groceries, KN95 masks, Covid tests, toilet paper, laundry detergent, clothing and more!

No more teslas no more cars Ride a bike!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🚲

A Dashboard of the Disappeared public.tableau.com/app/profile...

All anti-mask laws—even those with so called “medical exceptions”—stigmatize mask-wearing. Fewer people wearing masks increases the spread of infectious diseases. No matter how lawmakers try to spin it, any law that criminalizes wearing a mask endangers public health. Period.

Acting chill and casual when a topic comes up as if being a massive hater of that thing hasn’t been one of my fixations

SOmetimes when I'm writing/arranging songs I'm like dang I'm so talented and I sing so pretty

Does anyone know why EVERY toilet paper brand is like "5 times bigger than a regular roll"???? But since they're all saying that then what even is a regular roll anymore???? What is the toilet paper control group they're all comparing themselves to???

Processing the Severance finale

When Elton John sang “if I was a sculptor but then again no” That’s so me like how sometimes I’m like I should get into candle making But then again no

Hiiiiiii 🥰

I am playing a show on WEDNESDAY!!!! super excited so come thru

I bet if I didn't have a spoon in my brain that would fix me

I do not watch the grammys but every year I do look at the winners list the next morning and complain!

If you are in danger unless you comply with a regime, you are in danger whether you comply or not

These executive orders cannot be pulled off without a bunch of people complying. There are those who have been down with this shit the whole time and then there are the cowards and both types of people are equally contemptible because their actions are the same.

I’m over all the social media sites run by evil billionaires I’m going back on GeoCities Sign my guestbook

Ok I had a whole plan to focus on content and promo this year but then with the back and forth of the tik tok ban I’m kinda like… over it

I can’t believe TikTok is getting banned when I’m EXTREMELY famous on there and ONLY on there. Here’s proof 👇

I am playing a show at Burlington Bar on Feb 19! www.eventbrite.com/e/artie-do-g...

I just skimmed an old article where someone was cited as the creator of a hashtag... Idk if this is still a thing people brag about but it read as incredibly silly and dated

They're banning TikTok to silence me specifically www.tiktok.com/@abraycadabr...
