Called my rep and said "I am concerned about the President's posts about committing genocide and would like my reps to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove him from office" and the guy was like "okay I'll pass that along, is there anything else" and I was like no that's pretty much it
It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you.
If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can.
Everyone give this a share after.
As a way to spread the word about the various Lebanese mutual aids that support all those affected by the ongoing Israeli war and occupation of Lebanon, I thought I'd share a bunch of contemporary Levantine musicians who are popular among my Beirut peeps, a thread 🧵

Support Kyle Fraser’s Recovery after Two Strokes
Some of you may know I’ve been dealing with a personal matter over the last week. Most of you do not. I consider myself a very private person but I need to ask for help at this time. Last week, my partner and best friend, Kyle Fraser, suffered from two strokes in a single day. There is a very long and expensive road ahead, and our friends have been gracious enough to help organize a GoFundMe for anyone who wishes to offer their support. On it, we have written up more detail on his condition for anyone curious. Even a repost or share helps. The link to that is in my bio, my story, highlights - pretty much anywhere. Thank you for your thoughts and support at this time. Apologies in advance if I take some time to reply, I’m taking it one day at a time.
For those who don’t know him, Kyle is probably the most compassionate person I’ve ever met. He is as gentle and brilliant as much as he is strong and funny. He loves his two cats Poly and Moog, and adopted them with the explicit intention of ‘which cats are you having a hard time adopting?’ Though he can be reserved and introverted, Kyle has a fierce passion for his career and will always offer a helping hand to anyone in need, often taking calls to mentor professionals beginning their career. I’ve become a better person through knowing and loving him.

Anything helps, a like, a share, a donation. thank you for your support during this difficult time ❤️
OOHHH I know where you mean now!! I’ll have to dig out what plugin I used for that at some point, I was pretty mixed about using it tbh but I’m glad it worked out
tysm, it was definitely a real extensive one,
it does make me want to make music for more RPGs with similar scopes at some point
👀!!! at this whole thread tysm Reeder…..also I love how my memory has become muddy with this now that I have been trying to remember when banjo was there lol
If you can’t help, please share with anyone you know! Again these are reliable Mutual Aids to help the displaced in Lebanon. I’ll add more in the thread as I hear about the 🧵1/x
crawling out of the cave very late on #bandcampfriday to test out the new embedded player, it's about time it existed!
I don’t have anything new on the page (yet) but as always do use today as a chance to support your favourite artists on bandcamp

Ramadan has started, and the World Central Kitchen has a program to distribute food aid to people in Gaza. Each kit for Ramadan contains nearly 30 pounds of halal—enough for up to 70 meals. If you have spare funds, please consider a donation of $60 to assist the people still struggling in Gaza.
A thread of things you can do to help folks in MN.
If you've got funds to throw our way, the below website is a great place to start. I also repost fundraisers regularly as do other people on the ground. 🧵

Just as a reminder, supporting the Harry Potter franchise (even downloading the game when it's free) indisputably harms trans individuals because of how the creators spends her royalties.
There's a lot of better games, fantasy worlds, and creators out there that deserve your attention. 👍
Tried to coalesce thoughts about the impact of Bandcamp Friday over these last 5 years in the face of industry changes, payment processor crackdown, corporate platform buyouts and the shrinking landscape of unfucked social media
If anything artists supporting each other is more important than ever
this year has been a year where I’ve mainly been offline, and will probably be still like that for a while
I hope I can creep back some more when I have more things to share eventually (hopefully next year) or when i’m less (personally) burnt out: whichever comes first!
(crawls out of the offline void) bandcamp friday! the usual post for bandcamp friday’ing is below, thank you!
tysm for the kind words Gwen!!
Wrote a thing. More importantly donate what you can to help my country if you can.

Help me, Bluesky! I'd love to find and chat to UK-based up-and-coming music composers for games - especially those who are as obsessed with the Japanese school of melody-focused game music as I am. Could eventually lead to a small paid gig and then maybe maybe more down the line. Spread the word! ❤️
just a reminder that bandcamp friday is tomorrow & streaming services are interrupting music streams with ai generated shit, flooding the database with artists that don't exist in any way other than profiting the platform owners
so instead of paying a monthly fee, buy an album or two each month ok
TERFs are trying to bully a beloved London public swimming space into throwing out their longstanding traditions/policies in order to force trans people out of using the space.

Only 4 days left before the Play for Peace: Games for Palestine charity bundle sale ends, and about $8,000USD away from hitting $100k USD.
Please RT and help push this as far and to as many people as possible for this last stretch.
