I make music under the name “The Cocker Spaniels” & book tours under the name “Happy Nomad Booking.” I love my children; I like Prince & Guided by Voices; & I hate all forms of bigotry. I’m Black.

there’s a reason why, in a country where healthcare is abysmally expensive, mass amounts of people getting disabled by a disease led to child labor laws getting contested

There was always going to be covid antivaxxers but the way trump/gop turbocharged that to like 30% of the population I'll never forget the ghouls responsible for killing my aunt, alone and without a proper funeral or countless other deaths nor the grief and pain among *everyone* in my social circle

Here's a great June Jordan poem shared by @dem8z.bsky.social. Her birthday was yesterday. Her work is crucial now. I was talking to my friend Ethelbert Miller who's a local Black writer who keeps his correspondence with her from their friendship for archives at the bookstore Sankofa months ago.

I wish that people who insist on scheduling phone calls with me during the five minutes of free time I have each day understood the fact that I work two full-time jobs simultaneously while also watching two children I repeat: two jobs & two kids AT THE SAME TIME Send a text and let me sleep

Holy Wave is a great band out of Austin I saw a couple of years ago. Their van has given up the ghost about a week before months of touring (including dates opening for STRFKR.) Here’s an opportunity to directly support the arts (and four people’s livelihoods) in a real way. Small bands work so hard

Check this from Rolling Stone. At this point, I enjoy rap as an art form a lot, but am not heavily invested in pop culture, but I'm handing Kendrick the victory on this. He dethroned the abuser Drake successfully, & his music is inspiring Kenyan popular resistance. @wagatwe.com

"The lawsuit also alleges that Black students are disciplined more harshly than white students. In one case, the district refused to punish the harassers “out of fear of labeling them a ‘racist,’ while the harassed child was suspended for two days,” according to the lawsuit." 🙄

if you loved someone's writing and you now find out that their sexual ethics are awful to you... I just want to say that it says nothing about you that you loved their work and nothing about you that you learned from the work. if the work 'changed your life', consider that you did that yourself.

So many liberals falsely believe that there are Russian agents running around within the Republican party creating the fascist movement that the Republican party has been coalescing towards for decades. When the real reality is, that’s not it at all. It’s exactly this.
