Heartbroken to hear of @sfdirewolf.bsky.social ‘s transition to be a crip anscestor AND feeling so honored to have been alive in the time as this brilliant human, and gotten to learn from her.
May her memory continue to always be a blessing.

I’m here because I believe in the liberation of all people and that includes artists’ liberation from the neoliberal deification of them because of their art. if performance art isn’t about liberation, I’m out

@chacofemme.lesbian.cat , I don’t know how you do it but you pick such apt films…I definitely see what @hkl9.bsky.social was saying about the individual stories with the vignettes, and then @larkinspurs.bsky.social I completely agree there’s so much happening w/ liminal space here...

book club but with new albums...we listen and process for a month and then meet on the one month anniversary to discuss the music. who's in?
Along these lines, we should all do new music Friday together! Would be fun! This week is Demi Lovato and Brandi Carlisle; next week is Florence (I’m so excited).
Would be great to have group listening/watching events not tied to blondie.
