Heads up, apparently WTUL is having issues broadcasting both online and on the airwaves. Still going to be in the studio and will try to reach you all, but if it doesn't work I will be back next Friday!!!

On the air TONIGHT! Tune in from 10PM-12M CST as I spin songs from the likes of The Coup, Fugazi, RATM, and more (along with tributes to Sly Stone and Brian Wilson) to help us rest and recharge. Remember that taking care of ourselves and each other includes resisting fascism (my opinion, not WTUL)

Posting this a day early: I will be back on @wtul.bsky.social TOMORROW from 10PM-12M CST. My silly little show won't save the world, but allow me to provide a setlist to motivate us as we continue the fight. Sending much love. Remember: there are more of us, and we have much better taste in music. 🖤

There are a few options right now in response to this moment. You can spiral On Here, or you can get up right now and go demonstrate and make some fucking noise wherever that makes sense in your neck of the woods The Summer of Action is upon us, friends. It's on us to make their plans impossible.

Right now, Muslims in Gaza are supposed to be celebrating Eid al-Adha. Instead of feasting, they are starving. Instead of gathering with their loved ones, they are burying their children. Netanyahu and the IDF can end this misery ANY time by agreeing to a ceasefire and allowing aid into Gaza.

If you're in NOLA, go pick up this month's issue of Antigravity! You can read my 14-month long investigation into a Louisiana-based far-right group. 😄

"Buy us a drink" but really buying some merch or a subscription would be cool too. Or sign up for the AG newsletter or just patronize our advertisers. Thank you!

“It’s why every time an incremental vaccine restriction results in a public shrug, he feels emboldened to go a bit further.” This is important. First he takes away something people don’t care much about—Covid boosters—so that later it seems more normal when he takes away polio vaccines.

Finally sitting down to read @nikostratis.com 'The Dad Rock That Made Me a Woman.' Just finished the second chapter (on Wilco but also so much more than Wilco), which made me cry a little. I will have more to say, of course but, two chapters in, I am already heartbroken and inspired.

I went to the bookstore to pick up my copy of 'The Dad Rock That Made Me a Woman' by @nikostratis.com (so excited to read and write about it, expect more posts about it) and ended up with two other books, because the world is scary and we need more stories (and my impulse control is currently low).

There's a man in back of this place. He's the one who's doing it. I can see him through the wall. I can see his face. I hope that I never see that face, ever, outside of a dream.

Business, economics, engineering, and computer science faculty skew right wing as hell AND tend to have a lot of power and sway on their campus because of the money they bring in. I also very sincerely think he’s confusing biology with psychology, which DOES have a reproducibility problem.

"I guess for some it is easier to hope that someday a computer will make this world perfect for you than to accept that real perfect will always be broken." Another beautiful, thought-provoking, and devastating essay from @nikostratis.com

Full disclosure: I was up at the wee hours past midnight helping my very good friend Eric through this bill after he flagged the language for me. If you want to support the only journalist who was up late last night asking lawmakers about trans Americans, PLEASE share this story.

Last summer, I quit my job as the lone trans reporter in Congress because I said they’d try to take away health care for my entire community and it was obvious none of my then-colleagues would write about it in time Lo and behold…

People of Seattle, this crisis care center in Capitol Hill would be such an amazing resource to the community. Shame on the business owners who blame the people most harmed by our society, instead of choosing to engage in actual solutions and blaming the powers that be.
