For folks in New Orleans (and beyond), please support @antigravitymag.bsky.social if you are so able. We need independent, alternative publications now more than ever.

For New Orleans (and even outside New Orleans!), @antigravitymag.bsky.social 🖤

btw for trans women to offer this kind of practical warning and sympathy is a serious mitzvah and we cis women really owe it to them (and to ourselves!) to step up our solidarity in kind

Oh lovely! Have a fabulous time!

PT!!! Send my best to the Olympic Peninsula, how I miss it so. If you happen to stop near Poulsbo, WA (my weird little hometown) be sure to stop by Sluy's Bakery.

Another important feature by @deecherrywriter.bsky.social

In particular, the scene where Eric discovers Neil's recordings with his coach still haunts me/makes me physically ill every time I am reminded of it. As it should, and it is a sign of impactful art, but I also don't think I need any more reminders of the horrors of CSA.

Despite it being a really well-made and beautiful and important film (and I am so happy that I have seen it and that it is being discussed/lauded again), I don't know if I can ever watch "Mysterious Skin" ever again.

Yes! Also, as fitting with Guillermo del Toro's canon, extremely Catholic (one of several pieces of media over the past few years that has made me reflect on my Cathoic upbringing).

Welcome to the life! My clothes are perpetually covered in at least a few strands of cat fur - it is like a badge of honor.

I'd be happy to read it as well!

"You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, who had ever been alive." - James Baldwin 🖤

My kitten does the same. She also likes to just...hang out in the litter box sometimes (she isn't hiding or scared, I think she just views it as another box/hidey hole to chill in), but that is not something any of my other cats have ever done.

This month's Close Encounters include a run-in with a cute musician near Jackson Square, joie de vivre at the Verizon store, and a Jordan Peele discussion at Barnes and Noble. antigravitymagazine.com/column/close...

Here is the setlist from last night (audio playback available for the next two weeks, playlist in perpetuity!), which I am feeling a bit smug about. Happy Valentine's Day, Happy Mardi Gras, etc.! 🖤https://spinitron.com/WTUL/pl/21976320/Musicophilia-with-DJ-MB?bodyclass=schedule

Hello! Finishing the setlist now, hope you enjoy! ✨️🖤✨️

@thrasherxy.bsky.social and @afeefness.bsky.social reporting on what happened when USAID was decimated is essential reading. This intersects with colonization, capitalism, racism, transphobia, homophobia, sexism, etc. - we must understand it all if we want to create a better world.

Oh hell yes, peak boxing gym experience (even though it wasn't in an actual gym, there are cathedrals (boxing gyms) everywhere, etc.).

A classic image of Euterpe, the Greek Muse of Delight/Music, in shades of turquoise and hot pink, is set against a black background. Above the image, in hot pink script is the word "Musicophilia", with the hot pink sub-heading "With DJ MB" below. Toward the bottom of the image, in turquoise text, are the words "2nd and 3rd Fridays, 10 PM - 12M CST, WTUL 91.5 FM, wtulneworleans.com."

Happy Friday the 13th, Happy Mardi Gras, Happy Valentine's Day, and Happy Musicophilia Friday! Tune into @wtul.bsky.social tonight from 10 PM-12M CST as I spin songs of love and heartbreak to take you into the myriad weekend festivities. 🖤

There’s a vax for measles, but not your ex.

Same in Los Angeles, though the media doesn’t care to report on that at all

Last night's International Clash Day set, available to listen back online for the next two weeks (the playlist will be available to view in perpetuity). 🖤

Happy International Clash Day! Tune into @wtul.bsky.social tonight from 10 PM-12M CST to celebrate The Only Band That Matters and their (and our) commitment to antifascism. I will be spinning music from their influences, their peers, their musical heirs, and, of course, The Clash themselves. 🖤

A gorgeous, chonky brown and white tabby with piercing green eyes lays on her side, staring at her human as she takes a photo. Back and to her right is a beautiful little spotted orange tabby kitten. They are on top of a (messy) bed with Marimekko sheets.

The Muse of Epic Poetry and the Goddess of Spring, in a (rare) moment of peace.

Yes, hahaha! Though, there are probably other things that will drive me bananas before then (not sure if that is a silver lining)!

Same! Silver lining?

Okay, I am glad that I am not the only one who has noticed/experienced this (well, not glad, but you know).
