Y’know when Snoopy is on his doghouse yelling in gibberish at things? That’s just me driving in central MA after 5pm because we all forgot how to drive when it gets dark ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’m carrying 5 days of work holiday over to next year (yeah America “land of the free” I get like 30+ days holiday a year)

Sooo who wants to take me on tour with them for like a week next year? I’m very small, don’t take up my space, not a morning person and not a fussy eater (unless it’s seafood)

I spent about $35 on skincare products after not really getting the results I wanted out of some Cerave stuff and my skin hasn't felt this good since my ex of over three years ago got me set up with a skincare routine

The corporate death penalty.

If companies are legally people and we choose to legally execute people for certain crimes, we should be able to liquidate/nationalize a company when they commit similar crimes.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Okay yeah seeing the ska homie tag on my profile reminded me how much I missed the format of bluesky/twitter. LFG babes

Mentioned it on insta, but taking a break from music stuff after a couple shows between now and January and this record I'm doing. I wanna be a person for a little while and reapproach doing my music stuff from a healthier mindset

It feels like there’s been an uptick in “everyone uses it so it’s here to stay” articles recently so it’s important to remember that gen AI is still deeply unpopular.

365 Days of DIY pt 2

DAY 145: Call Me Malcolm

FFO: Runaway Ricochet, Poindexter, The Pomps

I don’t have nearly enough ska on the list & I gotta start fixing that with one of the UK’s finest: Call Me Malcolm. Trust me, go listen to Echoes & Ghosts from last year. It’s incredible

ok so an important thing i really think people on bluesky need to hear about the anti-trans megabill

the tl;dr is that you could actually turn the tide of trans rights in america right now

but if you don’t act now, then we’re all cooked indefinitely

please read on

What if I just…. Casually leaked the Dead City Cover art (by the extraordinarily talented @egallagher.bsky.social) and told you you should pre save the album (Coming June 10th) at 2amwakeupcall.com/deadcity. What then

Oh shit yeah it is. Hi world, I'm Ian, sometimes also Yvette. I'm nonbinary and I have a bigger post about it on instagram.

Put out a new song about it on streaming and on bandcamp.

Call your senators first before checking it out because the house passed very anti-trans cuts to medicaid.

Playing a crapload of shows (for me at least) and taking a huge personal risk with this next EP.

I'm equal parts scared and thrilled by the prospects here. I might blow up my life and that's cool.

A fresh new piece of one of the best albums you’re going to hear this year.

THIS IS POP CULTURE!!!
Good morning! I hope you have a wonderful day filled with joy and listening to sOhio, a song about how anyone in Ohio can buy a gun, even me!

Hey emo friends, if you're like me up until 5 minutes ago, you likely follow thisisemoviolence on Instagram.

If you do, you should unfollow them.

(TL;DR) A toxic scammer who got ousted by the scene for his bullshit is trying to make a quick buck off this page.

Music is tight. These albums are all incredible, but more importantly get yourself to a live show, so much good energy.

the admin's claim is that the work done by Community Living will be parceled out to other departments (which are also heavily impacted by 10k layoffs). this is almost certainly not possible; here's good reporting on it.
