Horrific news this morning... Texas DFPS put seven children (ages 11-17) into a foster system called The Refuge, who sexually abused them.

They want to take trans kids from supportive parents and put them in places like this...

(This is an ACTUAL picture of "The Refuge")

Don't give a fuck what anyone says. Stooges doing Ray Of Light is pretty great.

@blackmetalbrews It's so wild to me that despite there being so many amazing bands comprised of POC that can actually talk about their lived experience, the white people who are making meme music are still the ones to get coverage at least once a week

@milesofgray @jack_obrien the black femme history of grunge no-one talks about. Bhm seems like good time to bring it up. @jmmcnabagain @annahossnieh @dj_danl blowing up all, cause music.

[Slow Elk @slow__elk]

This blew my mind today. I had heard about Bambang, but I had never heard anyone of this, and honestly kind of disappointed that I just hearing about it now.
