Positive Polyamory mention on NPR!!
This was actually so refreshing to listen to. Even learned some new things. Apparently there's cities out there passing anti family status discrimination laws which include protections for all non traditional families including nonmonogamous ones!

Let’s get this out of the way: She looked great. Sure, we could talk about Madonna’s face — about how we require aesthetic perfection from women, demand they stay frozen in amber after 40, then become cruel if they try too hard to maintain the appearance that’s tied to their economic and cultural value — but it’s actually the least interesting thing about her. And if that’s what you wanna talk about, you clearly were not at her Celebration Tour at Chase Center in San Francisco on Tuesday night, because if you had been, the only thing you would say about Madonna’s appearance is: Bitch looked great.
Even more impressive? This show was rescheduled from October, because the whole Celebration Tour was postponed for six months after a bacterial infection put Madonna in a medically induced coma for several days. Then she got better, got back to rehearsals and went on the damn tour, because she’s Madonna.

California WTF?
By Shay Woulahan. October 21, 2023
An NPR-affiiated public broadcaster has released a sympathetic profile on a trans-identified male inmate accused of sexual assault and threatening female inmates while serving his sentence in a women’s prison. KQED, the member station for NPR and PBS in Northern California, suggested Syiaah Skylit was a victim of transphobic hoaxes and targeted punishment.
Skylit, born Jonathan Roberston, is currently serving a 16-year sentence on multiple counts of robbery with a gun. While he had initially been placed in a men’s prison, Skylit, along with the help of trans activists, fought for transfer to a women’s facility, and was eventually placed at the California Central Women’s Facility (CCWF) in mid-2021.
Skylit was one of many male inmates who were transferred to CCWF following the implementation of SB 132, also known as the Transgender Respect, Agency, and Dignity Act.

A trans-identified male musician in California is currently touring and performing songs calling for the murder of women critical of gender identity ideology. Precious Child, who previously involved himself in the Wi Spa controversy, utilizes graphic sexual and violent threats against “TERFs” in his music.
During his most recent performance at the Knockout Bar in San Francisco, Precious Child performed his song “TERF Killer,” riling the audience into chanting “kill a TERF today.”
TERF, an acronym standing for “Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist,” is often broadly applied to all women who oppose the belief that males should be able to self-identify as female for the purposes of access to women’s spaces.
In a video of the performance shared to his YouTube account, Precious Child can be seen chanting “kill a TERF today” while the accompanying music video is shown on a screen behind him. The video features images of bullets and of a knife stabbing into the air as the words “kill a TERF today” flash repeatedly across the screen.
Precious Child has a history of repeatedly threatening critics of gender ideology, with a particular focus reserved for females who oppose gender self-identification law ........ Precious has also made repeated threats against world-renowned author JK Rowling.

Will, Maynard, Dorthea, Frida and Diego...
Author/dentist—Will Lillibridge (my great-granduncle) wrote the book Ben Blair. It was published by A. C. McClurg & Co., Chicago, 1905. This was the same year Will’s older brother, Lowell Stanton Lillibridge (my great-grandfather) helped settle the town of Burke, South Dakota where I grew up. I recently discovered that the cover art for Ben Blair was done by artist, Maynard Dixon—he was married…

Quarter Notes: Blurbs & Briefs from Sound Bites
- In this edition: Talking Heads; Rhiannon Giddens; Bandcamp; Foo Fighters
LATE NIGHT HEAD: The members of Talking Heads - David Byrne, Jerry Harrison, Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth - will appear on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” tonight (Oct. 18), presumably to promote the recent “Stop Making Sense” re-release. The band hasn’t performed in public since its 2002 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but recently came together for a joint interview on “CBS Sunday Morning.”
DAILY GIDDENS: Rhiannon Giddens will appear on the Oct. 18 broadcast of “The Daily Show.”
LAYOFFS HIT BANDCAMP: Bandcamp has laid off 50 percent of its staff, San Francisco radio station KQED reports, leaving the future of the streaming service and online marketplace in doubt.
“It seems very uncertain and it feels to me that core parts, like an incalculable amount of core parts of the company, are now gone,” a member of organizing group Bandcamp United told the station.
SATURDAY NIGHT FOO: Foo Fighters will be the musical guest on the Oct. 28 “Saturday Night Live” broadcast.

My local NPR station just made a discord server earlier this week for their forum segment and I've barely interacted with it but i already love it
But also it feels so surreal seeing this like older super formal organization on the same platform I use to send my friends cat pictures at 3am, like it's not bad, it's just, weird. I don't think I've ever spoken to anyone older than 35 on discord lol, and suddenly there's a whole server that's 50% gay teenagers with normal Internet usernames and pfps and 50% business casual 50yos who look like they copy pasted their profile from LinkedIn.
I think it's really cool though, like it gets more young voices to people who don't hear them as much. Like it's right there on my phone now, I've been tempted to call in before, mention my perspective as a queer person when I thought it was relevant to something they were discussing on the show, now I just might actually do it.
I think it'll also be interesting to observe how older folks adjust to being in a space where they're held to the norms and culture of younger generations instead of vice versa.

On my local radio station they were playing a segment about dating apps and you could write or call in and give a comment and I emailed them and they read it on air!! And I actually almost didn’t think it was my statement bc it sounded so eloquent lol so that was crazy! Twas cool :). Love my efforts in making the radio resurgence stronger.
