Would like this world to unfuck itself... While we wait for it not to do that though, listen to my music.

This should have been the headline on every major publication and should still be the only thing that every news channel is talking about.

Warrantless home invasions means that your home could be next. But since the rich don't think it could happen to them; they don't see how bad this is.
DOJ Memo Shows Trump Admin Ordered ICE to Conduct Warrantless Home Invasions | Common Dreams
"There's no Alien Enemies Act exception to the Fourth Amendment," said one law professor.

We start talking about raising the min. wage and suddenly there are these people who are making $10 an hour that will tell you that allowing people who make $7.25 to make $15 is going to raise the cost of a Big Mac and is therefor socialism...

Because people who make $1,000 an hour told them so.

ICE is Trump's Gestapo. Call them out as such. They are following illicit orders given by a president who is punishing free speech and by all accounts - they enjoy it.

Trump has the White House, both chambers of congress, the courts, more money than he can spend, immunity from prosecution and a whole ass cult that would kill and die for him... But if you read the utter shit he puts out into the world, he's still clearly a miserable person.

Hate is his core value.

Finally got around to releasing my 2023 album on Bandcamp. New to the platform so I have no idea if I should even bother uploading my others.

Personally, I think it's time to see the writing on the wall that reconciliation with conservatives is never going to be an option.

You want everyone, including them, to have decent wages, affordable housing, better education and access to healthcare - they want you to suffer, end of story.

I'm one of those people who had their life fall apart from one bad day.

Don't sit there thinking it can't happen to you and then start wishing there was a better world when it does.

Making a better world today helps people who need it today - but it could also save your life tomorrow.

I always thought it was next level gaslighting and outright brain rot to believe that I'm a baby eating satan worshiping terrorist just because I don't think our government should be in the business of being dickish to people.
True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are HUNGRY and OUT OF A JOB are the stuff of which DICTATORSHIPS are made.

People complain about this generation losing their writing skills to Ai the way my grandparents complained about calculators.

Now most of us can't do math in our head and the results are ten times more reliable.

"I think you all know that I've always felt the nine most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the Government, and I'm here to help." -Ronald Reagan

That's what you're fighting against. Four decades of policy and propaganda to convince Americans that there's truth to this.

Back in 2018 my brother died and I took up painting as a means to cope... I stayed with it as a sort-of-career for a few years before I got burnt out with the local scene.

I do miss that version of me though... The version with hair.

The most meaningful thing to me right now as a disabled guy is to have a backup plan for if/when social security falls.

I never had any intention of my music being that backup plan, but if it becomes one then I wouldn't complain.

Usually when someone blames the president for the economy I tell them that the president seldom has a direct immediate impact on global economic conditions... Not this time though.

Everything you see today will be thanks to one convicted felon and the people who failed to hold him accountable.
