Sleep is always deepest before the alarm :(

Fun fact(?): if you’re an EU citizen travelling within the EU and your travel docs get lost/stolen, you just need to report it to police and airline and you can still travel, generally. Obviously if you’re, say, a UK national… rn my mil is staying at ours til she can get an emergency travel doc 😀

Can’t wait for Christmas, but it’s too soon, must be strong and not give into t h e u r g e s youtu.be/Ap9GqyLoWyY?...

🧵 Halloween, as the world knows it, is an Irish invention from ancient Hiberno-Celtic roots. It’s correct name is Samhain & marks the end of the Harvest. It was culturally appropriated by the Christian Church as All Hallows’ Eve. It is a thousand or so years earlier [1] [pic: Macnas]

Great news for the #StopKillingGames campaign. Signatures are looking good. A ton already verified with only 3 % being discarded so far. Two biggest countries still to be counted. Everything points to the EU Initiative going through.

To do: -Stop feeling guilty or inadequate for pursuing fulfillment and success through means that make you happy -Try again -Try again -Try again -Try again ...

Being an emerging musician and a woman in Italy means you will not be credited by journalists and when you are it’s either not your stage name or it’s your sister’s name (who is also a musician and also has a stage name that’s being ignored)

Idk what to say besides playing in this project makes me happy :) youtu.be/eLzPoLkE7vE?...

Spotify gives a huge chunk of their money to Joe Rogan Spotify now runs ICE recruitment ads Don't use it.

Remember folks. The original bluesky ethos by us bluesky elders (apparently I count?) is block and move on. Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights. Block, and move on. This is what made this site unpalatable to the right early on, and we can continue to make it unpalatable to them.

We played a gig in a place that had the u$4 flag in the background of the stage and now we’re embarrassed to post the videos 🫣

People say shit like “the world is harsh and cruel and hard” as if it’s just an immutable fact of existence and not largely the result of people being assholes for the sake of it

Sometimes I stop and think to myself “I really need to dial down the bitterness and turn up the kindness”

I despise how hard YouTube actively fucks over its users and creators at every turn. Be sure to check your devices (Yes, plural DEVICE(S), because they’ve made it per device not just account), and make sure this setting is OFF! It’s potentially hiding thousands of videos from you.

Youtube is once again doing a dumb by adding AI filters to the restricted mode which removes videos with "mature content" but instead is wiping half the platform from sight causing untold losses for masses of creators. Make sure this is disabled by clicking your avatar on youtube

"Bluesky is boring." Social media *should* be boring. Being algorithm and dopamine poisoned is bad, actually. When your feed dries up for the day, that's your cue to go do something else until new stuff shows up later.

So sad tonight. My mum got a dog less than a week ago and he’s already run away 😭. We’re putting up flyers tomorrow.

Hate that whenever I express anti-genAI sentiment irl people react by patronising me and saying stuff like “you should learn about it so you understand it better and fear it less” as if I’m some sort of cavewoman afraid of fire I know what it does thank you very much and that’s why I don’t like it!

Today was a very rare case of a day that was fucked but managed to get un-fucked ✨

I’m so happy to finally have the brain power to fully take in new music again :) (with one old song from an old favourite thrown in, in memory ❤️‍🩹👔)

They're gonna ban porn and make it so the only sexual material we're allowed is nonconsensually-produced AI deepfakes of famous women, dude

Rest isn't self-indulgent, it's essential. Joy isn't burying your head in the sand, it's fuel to keep going and one small victory that you need more in dark times, not less. 🌱

AI art does not exist. It is an oxymoron.

The best thing about this was that I had everything at home, all the tools and materials. It feels good to avoid buying things

Seeing lightning flashes through the bedroom window and hearing distant thunder… love feeling cozy :)

Yesterday I woke up and I thought: I don’y have enough space for all my instruments anymore, but what I do have is random bits of wood and absolutely no skills or training. This is the result so far:

Thinking about nuking this account and starting from scratch, it’s worse than posting to the void here rn

Hey, I did a music on stage! For a bit of the show it was my own music! youtu.be/9Not8LH8N5Q?...

I can’t believe there’s a word for the made up realities that I used to pretend to live in as a kid whenever I had some alone time/had to force myself to fall asleep (It’s “paracosm” if I’m not mistaken)

I’ve isolated myself so much there would be close no impact if I decided to go. The people who would be sad can literally be counted on one hand’s fingers, as we say in Italian. At the same time, calling their potential sadness “close to no impact” is immensely disrespectful. Another day here ig.

I swear I’m just curious: are you seeing this post? (Yes, the reason I’m curious is I haven’t received one like since March 😎)

Touching grass is so powerful fr After weeks of deep depression, just leaving the house and going to the swimming pool today let me enjoy the following things:

I had to spend a significant portion of my bday money on blood tests :(

i want to make something

I’m at a point in life where I really do not like myself at all. I do nothing, take no action, talk to no one, just wallow and complain and I can’t seem to break this cycle

I wrote a song again after years of creative block, but it didn’t make me feel as good as I thought it would

Productive day: Switched to Linux Mint and remembered the password to this account!

Nature + family + guitar = peak afternoon ✨

For the 1st time in my 20+ years of learning English as a foreign language, the time has finally come: I have found myself genuinely needing to use the sentence “the cat is on the table”

I got T W O new guitars for my bday yesterday 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 I (still) am so emotional about it ✨✨🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹✨✨

Momentum's been great and if it keeps up they're getting the required sigs way ahead of schedule. But that's no reason to get cozy. On the contrary, that's all the more reason to be a pain in the ass about it, hence the reposting lol #stopkillinggames

Either you keep what you buy, or you're informed upfront when access to what you buy ends. There is no in between. #stopkillinggames

“How to mask your suicidal thoughts through a many hour long social situation”

I saw some BS about how folks need to stop posting about their art, music, shows because 'end of the world" & 'read the room.’ No. Now is exactly the time for more humanity, not less. Don't lose your soul, yo.
