I don't think the collar on my shirt fooled anybody today. I have a fuckin mullet 😂. I might wear a nice t shirt tomorrow. At least I'll be comfortable while I stick out 😅.

Genuinely confused as to why the people who design clothes think that ppl who wear men's dress clothes are larger than ppl who wear regular men's clothes.

What random facts should I integrate into my work persona before Monday? Aside from being cis, ofc.

2 hours in but I'm already calling it. Dead Pope isn't gonna be topped as a birthday gift. Thanks, universe. (I know he was the best one of my lifetime but I don't care, the Catholic Church is evil).

I got my middle name from my friend Joel. 2 days ago would've been his 70th birthday. I miss our pew hangs the most. Here's me on the pew singing the song I wrote about him. youtu.be/L2ghP-r2B-0?...

no wonder I haven't been writing as many songs, these shits are depressing

For many years now I have personally done my best to replace the word "passing" with "blending" (in trans contexts). It's been very healthy for me. tbh I sort of expected others to come to the same conclusion and for our group vocabulary to shift. I don't think it has. thoughts?

Weird AF questions on job applications recently: 1) "What is your assigned gender at birth" 2) "Do you identify by your legal gender". 🤦🏼‍♂️

youtu.be/JRrBF17omf4?... I put out a new EP, and a lyric video for the last song on it. It's a song about rising fascism and it's called "Already Lost". And somehow, despite everything... I swear it's hopeful.

Infinite love to the trans people who are just finding themselves right now, who are just starting hrt right now, who are looking at the world and saying, despite it all, fuck you im me. You are stronger than any government could ever hope to be, and we are here to make sure that you survive

Reminder that whenever someone says "gender ideology," they're referring to the mere existence of trans people, not an ideology. This is eliminationist garbage.

What are ppl using as a capcut replacement? Sync audio to video, & auto lyrics with a custom font, being the main features I need aside from the obvious..

hyping up your favorite bands and artists is free and easy and goes a long way :)

I promise you aren't being annoying or cringe by gassing up the art that you love and anyone who says you are is a fucking loser anyways <3
give specific praise to your favorite bands at the merch table and online. tell a specific story of what moment of the music affected you in what way. that shit matters so much. don't lead with what you would change about their music, that's less helpful.
