A fact, not a statement: The rock band pioneered feminist #grunge #punk and were well ahead of their time in the badassery stakes.

Also why so much Beatles discourse? The only time I think about the Beatles at this point is for @tommykess.bsky.social
I was having such a fun time on Bluesky until I just saw something about the Era’s tour on my discover page.
part of my calling in life is to help fans of music learn how to be the best fans of music possible:
1) buy merch and music directly from bands
2) go to local shows, become immersed in your scene
3) talk about music you like to your friends and online
4) give every band you like your email address

I see people posting that Elon was at Auschwitz this time last year - therefore, his recent "gesture" is not antisemitic. I was there, too. Last year. With Elon. I am embarrassed that I have photos of this on my phone. My love, Gidon Lev, was the "special guest" of this photo-op event. We thought, at the time, that it would be good publicity. But I would not share the photo today. I chatted with Elon Musk. I spent hours with him and walked with him through Auschwitz. I stood with him, looking at the nauseating heaps of hair, luggage, and shoes flooded with violet light meant to preserve it. Is Musk an antisemite? People, actually, it's worse - he doesn't care whatsoever. Elon, father of "little X" as he described his freezing cold son to me, literally does not care. He was unmoved by the experience. For Gidon, to be in the place where his father, Ernst, died on a death march - whether shot by the side of the road or having simply collapsed - was a huge deal. Elon did not care. He was about his press junket and his bodyguards. I was ten feet from him as he posed for the cameras of his entourage. He was utterly detached. He cared about how he looked. When he placed a wreath at Auschwitz and Gidon was overlooked, he walked away with the cameras whirring. This is Elon Musk. A sociopath, if ever there was one. To deduce, from this visit, that he is a friend of the Jews is desperately naive.
Julie Gray, wife of Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev, who joined Musk in his visit to Auschwitz speaks out. She says that Musk felt nothing during the tour & only "cared about how he looked."
She shared this with me privately shortly after the tour, and I'm grateful she made her thoughts public.
Yall I found out that since we are all biological women I can finally dance to this song
Music industry people with platforms and resources wondering what they can do to help trans people, some suggestions:
- sign trans artists to your label
- assign and pay trans writers to write for your sites & magazines
- cover trans music
- if you’re already doing those things, do it more often
