  • Resist with a resurgence of live music where people witness live talent and skill of their instruments, that write incredible pieces and songs. Get involved with your local music scene. Share music you love with people who appreciate the artistry.

    Besides the massive hegemons of the music industry, the vast, vast, vast majority of incredible music that are available on streaming platforms from artists, bigger and smaller, barely made them an income from streaming to begin with; they used it as a marketing tool for people to access their art, and otherwise monetize their brand by selling LIVE SHOWS! Selling merch! This is how they really made money off their work. And even then, many of them still have day jobs to make ends meet. They do it because it’s their passion man.

    The Taylor Swifts and Bad Bunnys of the world will do fine; their labels will find a way to profiteer off AI with their brand and image. Yes this screws over smaller artists again, but what more is a lost fraction of a fraction of a penny going to do for them if they already struggle to begin with? Resist. Go to a live show.

    Edit: also note, be mindful of how live music venues are in cahoots with stealing profits from artists and smaller venues. Support your local music scene.




  • I hope this only helps push Talarico’s campaign further. His persona and voice doesn’t speak much to me personally, but he’s carrying such a well spoken populist campaign, discussing real issues, and responding accordingly with the nation’s outrage with ICE, and the Gaza genocide.

    Crockett’s only campaign tool is reflecting on how much she’s spoken up against the regime, and how many times Trump’s insulted her personally; other than that, really nothing. She’s had no problem voting in pro Israel policy, and taking Israel lobby money by the way.
