Underemployment is one of the biggest issues trans people face. This is especially true for those in public-facing jobs like acting, where we are often deemed "too controversial." Jack Haven deserves the world: they're endlessly talented and charismatic. So many of us deserve the world.

Jack Haven is a vital part of one of this year’s best films. And they’re in need of some help. The film industry, man… www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqB5...

Applies to drag/burlesque/variety scene too; no middle class anymore b/c venues/bars are either super luxe $$$ or bare-minimums that won't pay for live entertainment. Leaving $$$ shows for tourists (Duane Park, City Winery, Slipper Room) or low-priced pass the hat gigs (usually outer boroughs only)

I live in the chic Brooklyn neighborhood… they opened a bunch of ultra-expensive hotels, and now the hip music venues that people would actually come here for are priced out. Where’s that going to leave the luxury hotels? they curb-stomped the magic goose

I’ve been releasing music DIY for 25yrs and I believe that should always be a viable option for artists. The double sale of Bandcamp was a wake up call so earlier this year, I joined Subvert.fm, a member-owned music distribution platform. As a co-op, Subvert can’t simply be sold to investors. 1/

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

The Democrats defend the Kennedy Center but not trans people.
A building.

@treewarrior.bsky....
maybe because defending everything about a super small minority of the population is not worth losing to fascists
