If you need a pick-me-up today I suggest Valerie June’s new album, “Owls, Omens, and Oracles.” It starts off strong with “Joy, Joy!” and then there are so many other good ones. Happy Tuesday! valeriejune.bandcamp.com/album/owls-o...

My entire-album listen today was the Rhiannon Giddens/Justin Robinson miracle "What Did The Blackbird Say To The Crow." Come for old-time, stay for the cicadas! How in the heck will I wash my neck when it ain't gonna rain no more? rhiannongiddens.bandcamp.com/album/what-d...

when he sends citizens to foreign concentration camps, it’s no longer a slide to authoritarianism—it’s full blown fascism! 😔 this is not an administration, it’s a criminal regime in a hostile takeover of 🇺🇸 democracy. #FightFascism #TraitorTrump #DefendLiberty 🔔

Can we have more of this, please? Let’s normalize kicking MAGA out of every queer space. Let’s start treating Log Cabin Republicans the way they deserve to be treated. Don’t let the door hit you on the ass on the way out.

Tell your congressional reps that administration officials who discussed national security secrets on Signal should lose their jobs. Signal might be a fine platform for buying recreational drugs but it’s not a secure platform for discussing government secrets. resist.bot/petitions/PI...

It's sad how too few people know or respect the lineage of the banjo - not just from Seeger, but going back to pre-civil war days with enslaved people and African-American culture. I deeply appreciate Pisgah banjo for honoring this history
