A particular congratulations goes out to GenX for witnessing a successful space mission. May this heal the Challenger trauma within.

My favorite thing today are all of the reveals from everyone who performed as sugar cane grass at the Benito Bowl and seeing the cute and joyful faces surrounded by green grassy strands. Preparing for Halloween this year is gonna be like

I love how everyone on the #Grammys stage is not taking shit and calling it all out. Musicians know how powerful we are, we know we can change everything.

there's probably some sort of media with a plot about not leaving the dangerous items around where anyone can pick them up after an evil has been turned back the first time. 🤔

To everyone who is sharing their music, books and art right now, I’m proud of you. If it feels weird, we want to encourage you. It’s the perfect time to do it. Music, stories, beauty, dance, absurdism, grief and joy are powerful in these moments. You are keeping us connected to our humanity.

Dear America, Remember you have control of the narrative. Take the time to learn about Narrative Warfare. Don’t just document what is happening — stay on the offensive when it comes to the story of who we are and what is going to happen.

Me: I’ve been so unproductive this week. Michael: Dude what are u talking about? Today u meditated, did tai chi, and took an ice bath. This week u wrote a new song, and ur writing a book AND planning a huge music campaign. All while being a good friend & daughter. (If ur hard on yourself too, hi!)

Today I want to celebrate how this new song is marking a new era, and another evolved sound is presently coming out of me. The music was dark, a fierce driving force, and deeply distorted. 😈🖤🙌

Christen Lien @christenlien.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

I wrote a new song. I haven’t composed new music in months! The past few years I composed a storm then spent many months recording those tunes… a few months ago I finished. I have 15 unreleased songs that I’m preparing for release. Those are coming, indeed — but that is not the point today. 1/

One of the greatest aspects of making music is when a #writer uses my carefully crafted journeys to inspire and guide their books and stories. A writer just told me that my ELPIS album is the soundtrack while he writes his next book. Knowing this connects me to providence and magic, it’s the best.

If this sounds eerily familiar, it's because they're using the exact same script today.

Joseph Goebbels on propaganda: There was no point in seeking to convert the intellectuals. For intellectuals would never be converted and anyway always yield to the stronger, and this will always be "the man in the street." Arguments must therefore be crude, clear and forcible, and appeal to emotions and instincts, not the intellect. Truth was unimportant and entirely subordinate to tactics and psychology.
