One year ago, a violent mob stormed the Capitol to overturn the 2020 election. That day made clear our democracy is under severe attack. We must hold responsible those who engaged in the insurrection. We must stand up to the Big Lie. We must make it easier, not harder, to vote.

To be clear, I certainly understand why it's happening...but I can't say it's not depressing to see show cancellations and postponements popping up again. ☹

Super proud of Buffalo Rose for doing the damn thing...this success is so deserved. Looking forward to the Rabbit EP release show at thunderbirdmusichall tonight! 🦬🌹🎶

In the midst of Putin's horrific invasion of Ukraine, I want to express my solidarity with the many thousands of Russians who are out on the streets protesting the war. In an authoritarian society, they are risking their freedom and lives. They are showing incredible courage.

IS YOUR CHILD TEXTING ABOUT JULIUS CAESAR? HBD = hey bring daggers ASL = a soothsayer! listen BRB = betrayal? really brutus? OP = onward plebeians LMS = let mark speak JFC = just forget cicero OTP = obliterate the poet TF = then fall (caesar)

"Roe is a recognition of individual autonomy, but it is also a limitation on state power. It's a limitation of what government actors can do. It's a block on what the state can impose on people. State-mandated pregnancy and state-mandated birth is violent." -- Jessica Mason Pieklo

"This does not stop with abortion. This expansion of state power will extend to voting rights, trans rights, marriage equality. It's anti-democratic. If you can make the argument that you can roll back rights in one area, you can in others. It's within the same line of case law."

social media breaks will remind you that a lot of this shit doesn’t even deserve a reaction all the time. conserve that energy for creativity, community, love, exploration, etc.

Hi Twitter, it's been a while. I was in Costa Rica for six weeks onboarding and training for my new job. I'm back in Pittsburgh now, but here are a few photos from the most beautiful (+ occasionally challenging) place I've ever been.

Happy Earth, Wind & Fire day to you all, and to all a good night. #21stofSeptember

Have some fall photos to break up all the political coverage on your feed. I took these in Frick Park this weekend 🍁🍂
