mer wilcox @wilcoxmer.bsky.social · 29/09/2026the timing of the cornell story breaking alongside pearl jam’s return has left me pretty on edge the last few days. i was assaulted at a pearl jam show a few years ago - not sexually, but, still - and it basically wrecked my love of the band. i’ve barely listened to them since it happened. 100

mer wilcox @wilcoxmer.bsky.social · 23/09/2026in any given group of people, i’m the one who will have flight mishaps. i’ve spent more than a few nights on airport benches. there’s gotta be a better way to do this. 130
mer wilcox @wilcoxmer.bsky.social · 20/09/2026few feelings better than being on the eve of one more week with your favorite band for the year. i’ll never get over how i got so lucky. 010
mer wilcox @wilcoxmer.bsky.social · 18/09/2026it never fails to amaze me when concerts can still leave me absolutely gobsmacked. this was my first bikini kill show, and i hope it won’t be my last. seeing any band that heralded in a genre is always A Lot. this was absolutely wild. 101
mer wilcox @wilcoxmer.bsky.social · 18/09/2026realized this is my first time back at this venue since glen hansard passed. my first time here was my first time seeing him. when that hit me, i swear i felt some Thing swirl through the room. he’s everywhere. the art we love never really dies. 110
mer wilcox @wilcoxmer.bsky.social · 18/09/2026being a weirdo in a bikini kill audience is the best fucking feeling. no one’s a weirdo if everyone’s a weirdo. ladies’ room had the best fucking vibes. outfit compliments left and right. 190

mer wilcox @wilcoxmer.bsky.social · 10/09/2026we see this headline and think “yeah, right,” and “that’s not legal.” voters like my mother see this headline and think “man, times have been hard, free money!” (she spent the entirety of christmas dinner last year telling us how excited she was to put the 2k trump “promised” to her new roof) 101

mer wilcox @wilcoxmer.bsky.social · 06/09/2026for those of you keeping up at home on our storm aftermath, our peninsula - our key attraction - is still closed and looks pretty damn devastated in the photos shared by cleanup crews. holiday weekend, perfect weather… and no beach/multipurpose path access. this is… really bad for my city. 100

mer wilcox @wilcoxmer.bsky.social · 04/09/2026i know we’re lucky the damage wasn’t worse, but i cannot express how upsetting it is to drive through your city after a horribly destructive storm. so many beautiful old trees are just… gone. 220
mer wilcox @wilcoxmer.bsky.social · 03/09/2026half my city is still without power this morning - we somehow never lost ours, and our block looks to be spared of the damage that i’m seeing in posts and on the local news now. this shit was brutal. 210
mer wilcox @wilcoxmer.bsky.social · 03/09/2026no sleep tonight. severe storm after severe storm rolling through since around 10pm. there’s been a ton of wind damage just a mile or so north of us, right here in the city. we seem to be lucky so far. haven’t lost power (yet), crossing fingers it stays that way. 110
