Anyone else making stuff sort of like this? I love learning about new music, but I’m always the last to know. #BandcampFriday
🖤 I make unpopular pop music that sounds really out of date. The lyrics are about stuff like bodily autonomy (F Natural), fascism (The Bad Old Days), ADHD (Brain Drain), dreams (There’s A Light), and the closet (Fountain Of Truth). And other stuff. daydreems.bandcamp.com

The core of what anti-trans liberals and fascists alike don't understand about why LGB can't be separated from TQ is that the basis of LGBTQ oppression is gender nonconformity, not sexuality.

Homophobia is discrimination against people who love others in a way that violates gender norms.

Look, I'm black. (Obvious.) And people in America are racist. (Also obvious.) But I do not deserve to have less of a life because there are people in this country who do not want to see me. Who despise who I inherently am. That's too bad. I deserve a full life anyway.

That goes for EVERYBODY.

I'm not a political scientist but if you're advice to the Democratic Party is pushing out unions, immigrants, and queers then I think there's already a party for that

Hope everyone is keeping a light on in their hope center (heart?). Since it’s #BandcampFriday, I thought I’d mention that I made a great retro pop record last year, and you should go listen. It’s about bodily autonomy, fascism, ADHD, dreams, ladybugs, the closet, and more. daydreems.bandcamp.com

Correct. This isn’t illegal deportation. It’s human trafficking.
@washingtonpost.com They were not DEPORTED. Deported means sending them back to their country of origin. These people were sent to a maximum security prison in El Salvador, without any due process or any analysis as to whether they feared harm in El Salvador!
In America, EVERYONE has a RIGHT to due process - regardless of immigration status. It’s fundamental to our Constitution.

Deporting hundreds of people in secret by invoking a wartime proclamation is a blatant abuse of power by President Trump.

Do you still buy music? It’s great when people stream my stuff, but it doesn’t really pay.

Today is #BandcampFriday, when all the $ goes to the artists, so if you want to support independent music, go buy some stuff! Mine’s here: daydreems.bandcamp.com/album/day-dr...

The media has more empathy for white Trump voters burned by Trump than they will ever have for the transgender folks, Black people or immigrants these voters *knew* they were going to hurt.

If you are a cis person *please* take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.
Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes.

You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment.

My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc.

Some relevant lyrical content (from one of my favorite new release albums of 2024).
Their perfect future’s a homogenous display
It only works if the exceptions go away
So if being who u r is likely to disrupt
Get ready 2 be rounded up

I hear their praise 4 the bad old days
They long 2 be free of u & me while the world decays

It is *very* important to understand that Jews were never the only target of the 1930s Nazis and they are not the only targets of today’s Nazis. A Nazi salute is not only antisemitic. It is also racist, ableist, and queerphobic.

One mic for the drums, bass, & gtr!

“A brand new flat and a good luck cat
To help her find the wherewithal
Heading blind to the other side
Like walking through a waterfall

It's so hard to let go of what's over
But she's gotta make space for the new”
