The album “how to start a garden” by Nanna is definitely really slept on.

Bruhhh I’m gonna play a little acoustic solo set tonight and then the next Onlyferns set will be digiskramz, adhd soda grind type beat. I love having the opportunity to have a “do-anything” musical outlet.

We r going back to old school internet. Goodbye twitter goodbye meta. Logging back into MySpace with AOL dial up, playing some flash games and talking to people about screamo on the Nondenominational emo thread

If you’re interested in getting this setup pls make an account, like and reply to the post. There’s a small requirement of interaction to get it going @jayisforgenius.bsky.social is also working on a local shows calendar site separately! The more resources the better :)

Milwaukee: I think I'm going to make a calendar/resource site for shows here, since there is no real centralized place for that, and so we don't have to keep relying on social media. Is this something anyone would be interested in? If so, any suggestions? Would love to hear your thoughts.

In all seriousness I’m a nerd about sounds. What kinda tone are you going for? /what type of guitar? You can dm if you want also.

Fern (she/they) @onlyfernsss.bsky.social · 29/01/2025

When it comes to guitar the tone is all in the color of the paint. Red guitars sound like fire, and seafoam gives you +5 reverb.

This is my favorite picture of Stonewall. They knew they were getting arrested just for being LGBTQ+. Yet... they're still here, standing outside of the boarded up Stonewall Inn, smiling as the world was at a fever pitch of hatred against them. I think about it a lot in moments like this.

This was a very surreal and empowering show to attend. Seeing that many trans people from all over the Midwest fill out cactus and scream together was beautiful, inspiring, and really helped me acknowledge how important/powerful music is to people. “DEATH BEFORE DETRANSITION!”

Just some thoughts I shared elsewhere that I feel I should share here too.

It's reasonable to worry for the future. But we're not alone. Don't give up hope, and don't stop being a bright light in the world. Keep loving, keep fighting, and keep doing what brings you and your loved ones joy. News outlets and social media censorship is trying to keep us scared and confused. The rest of the world has been protesting for the people of this country. There's solidarity for the American people having to endure and witness this vile demonstration of facism that no longer has any nuance to it. It's nothing new and a long time coming this is just perhaps the most blatant display of it yet. A lot of the world is anti-trump and anti-facism. Protests ongoing from Berlin to Mexico since the day of the inauguration. Which is inspiring and makes me feel a little more optimistic. It will probably get harder for trans people, which makes it just that much more important to stay strong and be there for each other. Now more than ever don't be afraid to reach out to others for guidance or support. We will get ourselves through this together: I'm not the most smart or eloquent in speaking about stuff like this but... Overall, all l'm saying is: I know things seem scary or grim but it's not over yet.
Don't accept defeat before it happens, and don't let them take your joy. There's moments of "awe" and wonder present everyday in spite of all the shit that's meant to bring us down. The world and people in it are too beautiful & powerful to be destroyed by greedy fascists and their puppets. Join a local org, attend a demonstration, inquire about mutual aid programs, give someone a hug, tell pplu love them, rest, breathe, etc.
And to quote some friends who's words resonate strongly with me:
"To suffer is to exist, Persist in defiance"
&
"Death before detransition"

Having variation in the types of music being played helps a lot. Plus opportunity to breathe/get air in between sets, and stuff like that.

6 band bills are good if you actually like music

I just made a Milwaukee thread! :) Go like and reply to get our city’s scene going on here. Might end up being a good alternative to instagram for connecting with artists, finding local shows, etc. freakscene.us/threads/milw...

I reply “hell yeah” to a lot of mushroom photos because when I see a picture of a mushroom a little voice in my head goes “hell yeah” and then I type that and hit send
