Past few weeks have been tough. COVID, then (ongoing) recovery, and a family pet passed away last night, and I covered his cremation costs. Trying to sell some gear to cover costs, but if you have anything to spare, 'twould help me a lot.

Ich halte das wie die Bullen mit ihrem geliebten Racial Profiling: Bis das Gegenteil bewiesen ist, ist in meinen Augen, jede*r von denen in einer rechten Chatgruppe und tauscht dort fleißig Hitler-Bildchen aus.

We're happy to welcome back @allieinchains.bsky.social, an artist we've already hosted numerous times, mainly through her band Transgressive, the death/thrash powerhouse from Arizona who has been carrying the flag of anti-fascist metal since 2021. This is her first black metal record!

Since everyone is talking about the rapture. Feels very fitting especially the lyrics. Also in general a really good album from the folks at Transcending Obscurity also featuring Marc Grewe of Morgoth on vocals.

Probably the reason why Pendejo is one of my favourite metal bands right now youtube.com/watch?v=YWi9...

Medien spekulieren, ob der Attentäter von Charlie Kirk nun links oder rechts war – und offenbaren dabei großes Unwissen über Subkulturen im Internet. Wer deren Jargon verstehen will, braucht Fachjournalist:innen. Jetzt den ganzen Kommentar ohne Abo lesen: uebermedien.de/109480/extre...

We got nothing left to eat and we have a balance of 511 on electric. We're 905 short of a tax payment, risking losing the place just before winter. Anything helps. Reposting helps. Thanks & Solidarity. #MutualAidRequest #MutualAid #MABoost #HelpSky 🖤❤️🖤❤️🖤

Now that autumn's here we need some gloomier music as well. #TheNightEternal #nowplaying #metalsky

Yeah man we should really fight back by staying on X

Es riecht nach Kristallnacht

It is wild that Charlie Kirk of all things is becoming *the* litmus test. Even just talking about the event publicly without a sufficient supply of sackcloth and ashes is cast as "promoting political violence." I haven't seen this kind of mandatory performance of allegiance and piety since 9/11.

The last week I've been out with COVID, unfortunately, and have missed work for the last week. Thankfully all my major bills and rent are taken care of, but hospital visit and meds ate up the last bit of spare dollars. Just need a bit to get through next week when I go back to work.

Reminder that 100,000 people marched for Trans Pride in London earlier this year, but because they weren't violent fascists, there was minimal press coverage, unlike the Nazis today. https://www.them.us/story/london-trans-pride-march-turnout-record-uk-transphobia

Temple of Dread were great yesterday glad I finally got to see them. Stromgitarreneinsatz is alwayd worth the 5 hour drive.

Looking forward to the mosh pit with Zerre later tonight, thdy were great in Siegen in April. I fully expect today to go even harder. youtube.com/watch?v=zHxN...

Wild how political alliance with Zionism sweeps all sorts of wild statements about Jews under the table

All three if the given examples (Soviet Union, fascist Italy and Germany) very much fit here and I am very concerned for my friends in the US and their safety going forward. I can definitely see the republicans use this for even more sweeping changes towards even more of a fascist dictatorship.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

Can't wait for tomorrows shift to be over, long weekend meeting a bunch of folks I haven't seen in a while and live music at Stromgitarreneinsatz in Lübeck on Friday.

As a millenial from Germany I had very few friends with consoles growing up. On the other hand almost everyone had a computer and a couple games for that usually RTS like Age of Empires or Point and Click adventures.

Just got back from M4M, small post about bands Kera Munin Very solid Black Metal, great opener Fatal Fire Fun Power Metal band Tyran My personal highlight, great trad metal band Burden of Grief Good Melodeath but not quite my thing Rage great setlist, Peavy is still a great stage presence

Das Problem sei jedoch nicht nur Steuerhinterziehung. „Sondern dass Superreiche gezielt Einfluss auf die Gesetzgebung nehmen, um Steuerprivilegien für sich durchzusetzen. Sie müssen dem Gesetz nicht ausweichen, weil es für sie dann nicht mehr gilt“, sagt Trautvetter

“The video of me being beaten went viral because I’m white but the violence I experienced is just a drop in the ocean compared to what my Palestinian, Arab & other racialised comrades have endured at the hands of the German state police over the past 2 years.” This is what solidarity looks like

COME HEAR THE ALBUM NOW THEN BUY IT TOMORROW Thank you to Heavy Blog is Heavy for featuring the release ❤️

Bumping this rambling thread of praise for this wonderful album @allieinchains.bsky.social, @vanessafunke.bsky.social, and @lascaillesshroud.bsky.social have created something truly special TAPE: @fiadh.bsky.social VINYL: elasticstage.com/aliciacordisco/releases/the-burden-of-i-album DIGITAL:

Fees have started piling up. Not sure what I'm gonna do at this point. Very worried.

Alright, it's time to officially announce my next album. It's called Requiem and will be released on October 3rd Pre-orders are open now! This is my darkest work so far. I hope you'll enjoy it! vanessafunke.bandcamp.com/album/requiem #metalsky

I really don't know why I bother trying to talk to some people when I only get the message there's no mutual interest in doing anything

[liberally] if a rural county goes red by one vote, every resident should be hit in the face with a frying pan once a day for four years.

This is true. It's also something trans people need to watch closely, because of the possibility that American democracy steers out of the nosedive only after jettisoning us.

Yes! Derby entschieden! 💙🤍

Just for perspective, a few weeks ago roughly 100,000 turned up for the London Trans+ Pride march. By contrast fewer than 3,000 ACROSS THE WHOLE COUNTRY, have turned up to anti-asylum "protests". Yet we are meant to take the latter as "the voice of the people" and the former as "the minority".

My incredible friends from CorDiscord gave me the most amazing Bday. From having Josh surprise me w/ gifts and take me to lunch last weekend, to an emotional virtual hangout, to making this *insane* tribute... I love you all so much My heart is full cordiscordelysium.bandcamp.com/album/alicia...

We're almost 11 months behind and just barely avoided getting electricity shut off 3 weeks ago. This place is going to be gone if we can't find some help somehow. Any amount helps. Reposting helps. Thanks & Solidarity. #MutualAidRequest #MutualAid #MABoost #HelpSky 🖤❤️🖤❤️🖤

A very important compilation raising funds for Trevor Project just released! t4tproductions.bandcamp.com/album/t4t2-a...

People keep theorizing a point in which Trump supporters will find sanity and turn against him. If the Capitol Insurrection wasn't enough for them to realize the error in their ways, nothing is. MAGA has proven itself to be fascism. That history reveals some hard truths about the movement... 1/2
