I spent 18/28 days in February in an orchestra pit playing various flutes. With walking pneumonia. The music was fun, but I'm thankful to be on a more reasonable schedule. Also very thankful for whoever developed benzonatate. 🙌

For those leaving audible and wanting to convert their purchased audiobooks to ones that can be used in other players: You'll need to download your library. The browser app can be memory heavy, so expect the browser to reload every few books. ffmpeg is more stable, but more complex.

me & @fungifemme.bsky.social wrote about how PUNKS ARE ALWAYS A WE! ❤️‍🔥 may these fragmented shards of writings make space for others to join the conversations! Think of them as an invitation to anyone who might feel inspired to take a shard or two and make art or write something more! #PickUpNextKin

I keep saying this but... if you live in a big city and want to fight fascism, questioning what your mayor and cops are doing to unhoused people is an excellent start. Criminalizing people who have nothing is how nice urban liberals do fascism.

some talking points other than the obvious if you need them: - this is governmental overreach - this increases the chances of having to strip at the airport for everyone - what about intersex people - this is wasteful and inefficient and a dumb use of government resources

If you’re telling trans people to throw a brick or Molotov “like Stonewall,” here’s what you do, ok? 1) shut the fuck up 2) make as big a donation as you can to Lambda Legal know your state and federal reps and hassle them on behalf of trans people give money or tangible support to trans people

Yesterday the Democrats posted a homophobic Valentine's Day meme. Went to see if they took it down and/or apologized (lol) and found one of the block lists I'm subbed to took care of that. Man, I love Bluesky. ❤️‍🔥

Orchestra pits are a nice little example of mutual aid. Rushed in from another gig and didn't have time to eat? Someone's got a protein bar you can have. Got a cough from all the dust in the pit? I've got a cough drop for ya.
