melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 10/08/2026hadestown is about collective bargaining, climate change, exploitation of vulnerable people, and the power of art to change the world. it’s very good at all of those themes and i desperately wish everybody was able to watch either the movie version or the live musical 110

melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 08/11/2025it’s wild that the dude who promised to put “america first” is giving billions of dollars to argentina & israel but is going to great lengths to allow potentially millions of americans go hungry. with this & foreign aid for poverty relief getting cut down, it seems like trump just hates poor people 030
melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 05/11/2025democrats don’t need to move center, give up on progressive values, or compromise on issues to win elections. Zohran Mamdami just proved it. all the “the democrats lost in 2024 because they were too left” people need to shut the hell up forever 051

melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 04/07/2025i was going through a family photo album today & i found two random photos of possums, just next to some family and vacation pictures. i love that my grandma thought the possum pictures were important enough to be included in a photo album that’ll be passed down from generation to generation 000
melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 15/05/2025i just started watching titanic earlier this week and i want to watch an extended cut with all of fabrizio’s scenes. if a movie is going to be over three hours long, it can take 15 minutes to show me that these side characters are real people, especially if it also includes their deaths 000
melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 25/04/2025all of my “fun facts” related to my family are stuff like “we lost track of where my uncle’s remains are,” “my grandma got arrested on drug charges twice,” or “my mom saw her dad’s ghost once when she was a child,” which are all normal things i can casually drop into a conversation 020
melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 22/04/2025the craziest thing about old newspapers is that they’d just put your address in articles. like i recently came across an article from the early 1970s about someone getting arrested and it both identified her by her whole government name and gave out her home address??? 000
melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 28/02/2025this year is so fucking long, it’s exhausting. enough things have happened already. please no more bad things 000
melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 28/02/2025things need to stop happening. to me and to everybody else. there’s too many things going on right now and i haven’t had time to process any of it. we should all just get to take a month to digest everything before anything else happens 000
melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 28/01/2025white dudes will just say shit like they think justice and fairness exist in american systems. “you can’t just kill people and get away with it” “you can’t just deport people” you can get away with a lot of things if you’re a rich white dude with political or financial power 000
melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 15/01/2025very funny to see people thinking that the us government actually has americans’ best interests in heart 000

melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 30/11/2024so today i learned that female reindeer have antlers too and they lose them in the spring vs male reindeer who lose their antlers in the fall. this isn’t relevant to anything but i just think it’s a neat little fun fact that i didn’t know until today 000

melody @melodylee19.bsky.social · 19/11/2024the funniest part of adhd is talking with someone about one thing, comparing that to another thing, getting into a deep conversation about that other thing and then going back to the first conversation. which is how people end up saying stuff like “how did we go from shag carpet to my brain tumor?” 061
