Today 5 community activists were arrested for protesting Atlanta's new "Cop City" with tree sits, forest blockades, and allegedly throwing rocks at police.

They're being charged with domestic terrorism.

Here's why all activists need to be paying attention:

I published a book that consisted of lyrics as well as some short pieces that are not attached to music. Autographs are weird, but I guess in the book world, it's not as odd. Anyhow, I wanted to let you all know these signed copies are online.

I hope this playlist gives off the same random and ethereal vibe that I was going for in TOLGIC. Mentioned very lit songs by @cloudnothings, @iamgodaryan, @Powfu, and @RooPanes…🎧

A lot of folks have asked, but I don’t have a clue why Trump is in DC. My thoughts:

1. Health issue / going to Walter Reed

2. Turning himself in? 🤷‍♂️

It’s not often Trump does anything without fanfare, so this makes me think it’s a narrative he can’t control.

[Trident Press @PressTrident]

Calling all #Tulsa people. @lowkey_okie is reading at Magic City Books tonight!
