🎶 tsunami tsunami came washing over me 🎶

shock and horror! it's another leeds gig! anyway, it's at (we think) the smallest venue in leeds (The Hyde Park Book Club Snug), which is normally used for acoustic acts or folk trios we thought it would be funny to play the noisiest 30 mins we could also it's PAYF so no excuses

it's fairly easy to remind someone making Stack's argument here that there are like 3-4x as many trans people in america today as there were jews in germany before WWII. getting tired from screaming that this is nazi stuff but this is so obviously nazi stuff!!!!

I think there's a good argument that memecoins, unlike tether or other crypto assets, are simply too stupid to be securities. Securities promise returns from an enterprise, these have no way of making money at all. William O Douglas simply didn't anticipate anyone would buy THAT

something I’ve been thinking about recently is that most cis people basically think transition care is optional and “maybe they’ll kill themselves if they can’t get it” and they don’t realize that legal and safe hrt and the availability of surgery is like basic bedrock dignity shit

feels weird trying to promote random local gigs on here do we use local hashtags? because 99% of the people we might reach can't come. we'll have new music at some point this year, promise.

Yes! We made it politically and economically too uncomfortable to be openly homophobic, and we can do the same about transphobia. Make it too costly to be an anti-trans bigot for these garbage people who don’t care about anything unless it affects them directly

for those fooled into believing this marketing i have a game called “peek-a-boo” that may be of interest to you

class 150s can go fuck themselves

Frankly, I don't like the way "peace" is framed so nebulously here. Arming Ukraine is not some needless expenditure. There's an argument for why it's not innately "on" the UK to do it, but like, this plays into the idea that feeding the poor is a budget problem not a policy one.

Why does 25% AfD among young men spark a thousand "what is going on with young men?" posts yet Die Linke 34% among young women generates...nothing at all? Yes, young men voting for the radical right is an important phenomenon. But so is young women going rad left *at even higher rates*.

If you’re not trans and you believe believe yourself to be a progressive ally type of person I highly recommend you read up on a prison practice called “v-coding” because with any luck it will make you physically ill and shock you to the point of action

look, these people are all nazis

every day i am glad ayn rand is dead

its genuinely insane how much the last few years have polarized me against legacy media and legacy media elites

seen a sentiment from a few people now expressing or implying a desire to transition but feeling unable due to the current political climate. while fear of the future is completely reasonable, waiting for a "good time to transition" will waste your life. it will never not feel scary at first

if any of the "gay people in my phone" can come, we have a gig at wharf chambers (again) on the 22nd Feb saturday night boogie/cathartic scream anyone? (ticket link in bio)

British politics too our ""class"" system has far more to do with culture and identity than it does with wealth i have met "working-class" millionaires and "middle-class" homeless it's nonsense

addendum to our last skeet: cool photos of you is also a good reason to be in a band

like 1-2 i am a massive softie

ngl being in a band during The Horrors fucks sure, the world is closing in around us, but we can scream about it!

Not exaggerating when I say I would like a personal, handwritten apology from every pundit who barfed out a dozen "the left wants to change the way you talk!" op-eds based on non-mandatory guidelines in obscure PDFs.

can all the transphobes who just "have concerns" about how trans people (especially minors) are all being manipulated by Big Pharma please redirect their rage to antidepressants, where all that shit is actually happening and has been for decades

i personally think the fact that blaseball does not exist in a world where i am forced to listen to podcast ads for sports betting on the daily is evil and wrong

broke: commenting “i don’t remember this doctor who episode” underneath a malcolm tucker clip woke: commenting “is this a deleted scene from hell bent?” underneath a malcolm tucker clip

I am genuinely disgusted by what people have done to her legacy I'm so serious

ngl, i kinda hate the whole "trans women are either noise musicians or DJs" thing it kinda feels like we've seen that transmisogyny is a massive issue in music and then decided that dealing with that is impossible, and then mostly gone into extremely niche and/or faceless music to avoid it.

EXPANSION SINGLE TIME BABY WE'RE NOT DEAD YET

given the recent executive order banning transgender women from women's sports in the united states - all funds raised by don't rock the boat during the month of february will be donated to athlete ally and callen-lorde elliotdegrassi.itch.io/dont-rock-th...

huh i wonder what this is

cw: quite frankly the most blatant transphobia i've yet seen out of an elected official ...we are now at "repeatedly yelling the t-slur" territory folks. i have no words that i think i can say publically

absolutely the single best gender. no i am not biased.
