i hope people understand now how a phone ban at concerts is about a lot more than "living in the moment"

and how complying and being trained to put it away on command is Not Good Actually

especially when it comes to advocating for disabled folks and accessibility

[CONSEQUENCE @consequence]

Ed Sheeran opened his concert in Philadelphia on Saturday by addressing the controversy surrounding Macklemore's removal from the tour, concerns over venues restricting artists' speech, and his own views on Israel and Palestine:

"I've had to make difficult decisions, and I am making mistakes, and I'm so, so sorry. I don't want to disappoint fans, and I've never wanted to be an activist musician, but this has put me in the middle of an important and passionate argument about freedom of speech and the most complex political issue on the planet. Of course.

"My concerts have always been a safe space for everyone, and that matters hugely to me. Honoring my commitment to my fans is also completely central to who I am, and that is why I'm here tonight on my own and continuing my current tour.

"But I am deeply worried about the idea that venues should pre-approve content for performance. This happens in so many places that I perform around the world, but it should never happen in the free world.

"Now, I want to address the question of where I stand in the situation in Israel and Palestine, and whether my doing this concert here tonight implies where I stand. I have tried in my career not to be a political commentator of any kind because I want my music and shows to be about unity, not division—about humanity, not politics. But this is a humanitarian issue, and I cannot hide how I feel about it anymore.

"What happened in Israel at the Nova music festival on October 7th was horrific and compounded centuries of Jewish pain. What is happening in Gaza is catastrophic, unjustifiable, and disproportionate. My heart has been broken by the scale of devastation and loss of civilians' lives, of children's lives. And the systemic injustice we're seeing unfold in the West Bank cannot be overlooked.

"I am already speaking to people across the spectrum to work out how to make a contribution that helps victims of these terrible times, and listening and learning because I do not know enough.

"I honestly am so grateful that you're here tonight with me. This concert is still a place where everyone is welcome, and everyone here can stand beside people that have opposing views. Everyone here can stand by people that they don't agree with on everything, and they can all agree on singing these songs. And these songs are about love, hope, and unity."

In the early morning, the man I called my “baby cousin,” despite him being only one month after me and 6’something” tall, transitioned to his next adventure.

If the Democrats win both the House and the Senate the US war on Iran will continue, the blockade on Cuba will continue, support for Israeli genocide won't shift and US support for the war against Russia will probably deepen. This is what an empire looks like. Depraved
