I have the upmost respect for anyone out there who is making music on their off time just because they love the process, etc…. I am right there with you. We may not be considered “professionals” but damn are we passionate about what we do. Carry on, my friends. 🤘🤘🤘
I’m still on the Roman Empire…I’m 2 cliches behind. 🤷♂️
I see Men™️ have moved from being experts on Iran's military infrastructure to ancient Greek mythology and gender representations in antiquity, really amazing work guys.
More of this please.
Incredible statement from the Church in Wales on the ignominious Code of Practice: "The Church in Wales will not use equality law exemptions to exclude trans people from our worship, our sacraments, our pastoral care, or our common life." www.churchinwales.org.uk/en/news-and-...
“We reject the false choice between protecting women and treating trans people with dignity, and believe women’s rights are best advanced when we stand in solidarity with our trans siblings.” Despite what some claim, many women’s organisations fight for trans inclusion as central to women’s rights.
Women’s organisations speak up against the EHRC updated Code of Practice - Not in our name
NION Women is proud to stand alongside a coalition of UK women's organisations in expressing concern about the EHRC's updated Code of Practice

I'd feel far safer in a community of immigrants than I would in a community of ICE agents
Brent above $85. European gas back over €50/MWh as Hormuz escalates again. A reminder: A fifth of global oil and LNG passes through that strait. Every heat pump, EV and electrified factory shrinks this exposure. Electrons made at home cannot be blockaded in a shipping lane.
I like big hats and I cannot lie. I'm a fan of Jamiroquai.

Listen. I spent more than a decade as a theatrical technician, rigging stages, hanging lights, flying scenery, etc. The number of times I have dropped anything on a stage with performers on it is zero. The number of times I’ve dropped something that might’ve killed someone is zero. This is major.
The stage is falling apart at the rehearsal for Freedom 250's July 4th celebration.
Never forget, the electric car is here to save the car industry, not the planet.
I wrote about the Supreme Court's latest disgusting anti-trans ruling. I wrote about it because I refuse to act like taking away constitutional rights and allowing legal discrimination is okay just because it's happening to people who don't poll well in a diner in Ohio. In @thenation.com
The Supreme Court’s Anti-Trans Ruling Goes Well Beyond Sports
The ruling is about whether trans people have the same rights as everybody else—and the Court said they don’t.

Do people not know that there are at least ten musicologists on here who want to explain the answer to your music question to you so badly that they will drop everything to do it?

Dems' "Project 2029" first major policy proposal: an online child safety plan — narrowing Sec. 230, banning social media for kids under 16, promoting phone-free childhoods and more. Already backed by Cory Booker, Mikie Sherrill, Randi Weingarten + Jonathan Haidt. LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

These are the exact words she posted: “BREAKING: The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good in broad daylight has been identified as Jonathan Ross by the Minnesota Star Tribune. I think today is a great day for Jonathan to be indicted!”
i do not care to read three cis gays using the laverne cox article as a jumping-off point for an article that blows up trans intracommunity discussion about our safety for a general audience. slate gonna slate but also fuck off with this shit
