If you've ever wanted to talk to Dr. Synergy Myers, MD about your pathetic problems, now's your chance!

Also, I guess... it's my album release party.

Fri 14th March, 7pm UTC @ stream.gravitons.org
A very badly designed flyer. Background is relaxing greenery, and inlaid are circular photos of Dr. Synergy Myers, MD (a smug looking blonde white woman), and Meljoann (a white person with glasses, a denim shirt and a brown plait, nervously smiling). Mustics® Wellness Hour 7pm UTC @ stream.gravitons.org Talk to Synergy! Dream interpretation. Career advice. Acheive the ABUNDANCE you deserve, with Mustics®! Meljoann's Weird Noises. Less importantly, Meljoann is "releasing" something called an "album".

Album Announcement 📣

Irish alt-pop sensation @meljoann.bsky.social _
announces that her third LP

“Status” will be available on all stream machines 14/03/2025

Status takes the listener on a journey through a late-capitalist dystopia, guided by the light at the end of the tunnel: emancipation.

Through the medium of webcomics, I give you my whole vibe. This is 'Rainbow Language (is for Losers).

#horror #horrorFam #pagan #musicVideo #webcomic
4 photographic comic panels, with a hot pink background. Panel 1: Meljoann with a red face, wearing a black bin bag dress. A sparkling ocean is in the background. Text: A piece of rubbish was made to feel ashamed of its lowly status. Panel 2: In a wooden boat, Meljoann turns to the camera and makes a disgusted face. There is a person in the distance, similarly dressed but with red hair, pulling open her chest flesh. Text: From the shame, something truly repulsive was born. Panel 3: A closer shot of the red haired character. A red-sky barren landscape is in the background. She pulls open her chest to reveal an "sacred heart" image. Text: It got worse. Panel 4: A green-faced person licks its teeth, looking into the camera. There are VHS scan lines overlaid. A sillouette of a tree is just visible, and a faint rainbow. Text: Luckily, there was another option. Title: Rainbow Language (is for Losers) - Meljoann.

I deleted Facebook forever.
Felt a bit like cutting off a limb after 18 years.

Absolutely worth it.🧘🏼‍♂️

Two days in and I already notice slight improvements in my anxiety.

Gonna work at getting off IG and WhatsApp next. Which will take some months but I’m determined.

This includes some PNG overlays I'm gonna put on all posts, to really drive home my point. Feel free to yoink them for your own campaign of FFUUUU to zuck.

This hyperjack, R&B/pop track is out soon! In this song, I beg the music industry to translate me into their very normal capitalist dialect.

If you subscribe on mustics.com, it's already yours. Otherwise: streaming & pre-save at distrokid.com/hyperfollow/... ... if you're into that
Single artwork for Translate Me by Meljoann. Lilac background, a hazy Meljoann smiles dreamily, wearing gold sequins.
