June is Pride Month. Let's call out companies who show support for LGBTQ+ people while also advertising on GB News, a channel that pumps out LGBTQ+ hate. Tell these companies to pick a side - hate or Pride:

Pick a side – hate or Pride
June is Pride month. So our social feeds will be awash with corporate rainbow logos performatively signalling their support for the LGBTQ+ community. But some of the same companies celebrating Pride a...

Several people popped into this thread to chastise me for using the word "fuck" so many times in one post, and I was all, "oh, honey, that's my actual brand" in my brain before I blocked them so they never have to see my filthy filthy posts on Bluesky ever again
A quick post-cruise refresher from me before I do any serious delving into any particular current events:
Fuck fascists
Fuck -phobes
Fuck wealthy sociopaths
Fuck immigrant-haters
Fuck sexists
Fuck anyone who wants to invade Canada and/or Mexico
Fuck vaccine deniers
Fuck this administration
Etc, etc

Yes. You want to support musicians? BUY their work. Buy their merchandise. They need money to live! Streaming gives them almost no money! Musicians make more awesome music for you when they aren't literally starving!
I make $20 every six monthsish on the combined streams of all four of my albums on all streaming sites. At Bandcamp I make about $10 every time I sell an album, physical or download. Use Spotify if you want, but if you like living artists making a living, buy something from them where they get paid.
Who would have foreseen that by effectively stealing music from artists by stopping paying out on songs that have less than 1000 streams in the past 12 months would result in a first ever annual profit for Spotify?

⚡️⚡️ News and intelligence keep reporting: russia may launch a new missile at Ukraine some days soon. You know what’s the worst part about this? It’s not news at all. Not for us, not for the world for years.

⚡️The Security Service of Ukraine conducted a special operation in the Kerch Bay in Russian-occupied Crimea.
On the night of December 6, a group of Ukrainian Sea Baby drones engaged in battle with Russian helicopters, aircraft, and Raptor patrol boats that were trying to intercept them.

I guess it's a toss-up whether the Crimea Beach Party or Christmas in Kyiv happens first. A great double, though... 😍
Don't you forget that we're having the biggest Christmas party of our lives in Kyiv when the war is over, and everyone's invited.
We drink, roam the streets of Kyiv, and have snowball fights until we just can't.
Kyiv is the kind of city where one can get megatons of fun, so that will be epic.
