  • Resist with a resurgence of live music where people witness live talent and skill of their instruments, that write incredible pieces and songs. Get involved with your local music scene. Share music you love with people who appreciate the artistry.

    Besides the massive hegemons of the music industry, the vast, vast, vast majority of incredible music that are available on streaming platforms from artists, bigger and smaller, barely made them an income from streaming to begin with; they used it as a marketing tool for people to access their art, and otherwise monetize their brand by selling LIVE SHOWS! Selling merch! This is how they really made money off their work. And even then, many of them still have day jobs to make ends meet. They do it because it’s their passion man.

    The Taylor Swifts and Bad Bunnys of the world will do fine; their labels will find a way to profiteer off AI with their brand and image. Yes this screws over smaller artists again, but what more is a lost fraction of a fraction of a penny going to do for them if they already struggle to begin with? Resist. Go to a live show.

    Edit: also note, be mindful of how live music venues are in cahoots with stealing profits from artists and smaller venues. Support your local music scene.



  • Your leaders are pussies and have been mostly disappointing in the face of fascism; sucking up to Trump up until the more vivid threats to Greenland, and being almost equally as complicit in letting the Palestinian genocide happen that tipped the domino for delegitimizing international law.

    Neoliberalism is what made room for fascism to rise in the US, it’ll be what tanks your continent if you do not put pressure on your leaders, elect populist leaders with an actual vision for the future of Europe, and grind those fucking shit-stain Nazis to a fucking dust.

    I’ve never been more embarrassed to be an American, but those of us that knew that Trump was a fucking fascist are the ones organizing against his paramilitary with relentless protests, organizing two general strikes, and winning special elections against the right just this month. The public is getting radicalized and are arming themselves.

    And to remind you guys that money isn’t everything in an election, there was a special election last year that Musk dumped billions of dollars into, to prop up one of their MAGA hacks because they wanted that district strategically, and they fucking lost. Leftwing Zohoran Mamdani in NYC was also facing against billionaires, but won with a populist campaign and is the most popular politician in the country.

    Anyway, US hegemony is over, and you guys have to make it for the better. I grieve our relationship with Europe, but you guys are on your own now and the rest is up to you. Protest your leaders if they suck Trump’s cock, elect leaders that are willing to dump US bonds and get rid of the US dollar as the world reserve currency. Get yourself and your people involved in your elections for people that will fight for you. I pray for a better future for the world, even if it means this country will get what it rightfully deserves.



  • These protesters are victims of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. They’re protesting for higher standards of civil liberties while two rouge, fascist nations utilize them as a means to instill regime change for their own interests. Complete disregard for human life, while the ayatollah see them as an accessory to US and Israeli aggression and clamped down on the protesters with more lethality.

    And on top of that, Trump’s corrupt foreign political donors in the middle east like the Saudis asked them to back down, and he did. So extra lives were squandered for virtually nothing.
