💚 Today we celebrate Krista Holly Diem — our singer, lyricist, and the heart of LAPÊCHE. 🎂

Want to make her birthday extra special? It’s Bandcamp Friday, and only 41 copies of the jade green Autotelic vinyl remain. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Snag one today + stream Happy 4U → link in bio 💙

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

“Autotelic Nosebleed”, our new single, is out everywhere today. (Link in profile!)

It’s our first release on @tinyengines.bsky.social - a label we’ve long admired and we’re grateful to be part of the family!

This song is a reminder that joy can be resistance. #autotelic #newmusic #indierock

This bill would kick millions off their health insurance, and thousands will even lose their lives - unless we stop it in its tracks.

Some Republicans are breaking ranks, showing it's not too late. Time to speak up!

Such a good point on SCOTUS hypocrisy when it comes to Trump vs Biden:

They let a nationwide injunction kill Biden’s student loan relief when they had a chance to rule on it.

5 months into Trump’s presidency, suddenly nationwide injunctions are a grave threat to executive power and they must rule.

There are only three political positions in America today

1) I like the fascism

2) I'll acquiesce to the fascism (reasons for this one vary: cowardice, access, denial, misguidedly thinking that acquiescence is savvy, etc)

3) I oppose the fascism

The rest is details

Phang: Immediately after being appointed… Habba said, quote: “We could turn New Jersey red, and I think New Jersey is absolutely close to getting there. So hopefully, while I’m there, I can help that cause.”

Doesn’t sound like somebody who is trying to be, I don’t know, a fair arbiter of the law—

We’ve talked about “Alligator Alcatraz” before. Here are more details.

Starting the first week of July, when South Florida’s heat index regularly hits 100°F, they plan to detain up to 5,000 people in tents. No A/C. No real shelter. Just suffocating heat, choking humidity, and swarms of mosquitoes.

7 House Dems: Costa, Cuellar, Davis, Gillen, Golden, Gray, & Suozzi

…voted for a Republican resolution that reaffirms ICE, spreads Republican propaganda and lies, and attacks immigrants and California.

It’s shameful that these Dems are manufacturing consent for Trump’s fascism

Yes there are millions of people who buy in to white Christian nationalism and some have shown how to turn it into very profitable businesses, but at its core is ignorance, racism, fear, insecurity, and perversion of the teachings of Jesus.

Is the subhead on this front-page New York Times story suggesting that Mamdani is antisemitic? Whose antisemitism is it referring to? This is foul.
