Insomnia currently has me marveling at how innately human of a thing art is, and how perhaps this makes artists especially responsible for treating marginalized people with humanity.

Didn’t think I’d ever have to clear something like this up, but here we are 🤠 Under no circumstances will I transcribe music made using generative AI. I had a client whose deposit I just had to refund because, upon receiving the tracks they wanted transcribed, it was very clear from the first [1]

I will always feel incredibly fortunate and grateful that I’m at a level of ME that I’m still able to do things like write (albeit not as consistently as I would like. I’m working on figuring that out with pacing.) But also, it doesn’t look glamorous. (1/2)

EVERYONE. BECOMES. DISABLED. You can become disabled at ANY time. I’m disabled and still in my early twenties. This affects ALL people. And even if it didn’t, it should STILL be an outrage. Stop trying to make us invisible. Stop trying to kill us. -FS 💖

I wrote a song for “Kitty & Jill” that everyone really liked at the time, but I knew I would have to eventually scrap because it missed the mark of the show’s armature. Now here I am on this rainy Sunday, finally getting around to writing a new one instead. 👀 -FG 💖 #WriterThings #SetMyHeart

It’s worth noting that you should read my comments on this post for my full thoughts. It’s doubly worth noting that maybe my feelings will change or grow stronger, as feelings tend to do. But this is a valid expression of anger right now, and I feel it deeply. -FG 💖

also being an "ally" isn't about telling us we're "valid" & putting a flag on the office break room for a day or two every year & then telling us to sit down & let politicians ignore us the rest of the time. It's buying our work. Donating to our needs. Hiring us. Actively & loudly fighting for us.
