Honestly today hearing @heynowdana.com on @indie1023.bsky.social reminding listeners, as she does often, "I love you, I'm proud of you, I promise we are all going to be ok," almost made me cry. (It's a public, community radio station, so it means a little more than if it was some big station.)
And I'll keep saying it. Every single morning. 💖
We all need to believe this, and we all need to believe in each other.
The dark of night is always eventually followed by a sunrise, right? ☀️

You are welcome Dana! And many more! Still listening to your show in the AM from back here on the east coast! You're one of two NPR stations I have been supporting and will continue to do so! Public Radio is so much more important recently and we all need to support both NPR and PBS! Stay safe!

Radio has literally saved my life twice — in my past life, and again in my new one. So you'd better believe National Radio Day means the world to me.

How hard is it for people (well-meaning or otherwise) to understand that the word "trans" is an adjective and not a noun?

If you loved that, listen to The Punkyard this Saturday night at 6 on @indie1023.bsky.social for another new Cheap Perfume song!
@heynowdana.com THANK YOU for introducing me to Cheap Perfume's Woke Mind Virus!
(I doubt I'd hear them on any other FM station in Colorado)

Just a few weeks ago, a bestie and I were dipping our grilled cheese sammiches into Kraft macaroni and cheese while binge-watching TV in bed.
Being grown up all the time is overrated, IMO.

Did I buy myself a bouquet of flowers, a vanilla cake with sprinkles, and my favorite sugary cereal? You bet I did. Is there a special occasion? Nope.

After a break, I'm attempting to be active on Bluesky again.
I looked at the accounts I was following and let go of some centered on activism, politics, and news — not because their content is unimportant to me; I just want to limit how much of it is in my feed.
Protect your joy and mental health.

Quick! Someone make a song called "Blame Dana" so @bretsaunders.bsky.social and I can have fun with this!
Every time I hear @heynowdana.com plays Blame Brett, I can’t help but wonder if there is a morning radio show rivalry between her and @bretsaunders.bsky.social.

Your reminder that Humboldt Fog cheese, Humboldt County, CA, the Humboldt penguin (Spheniscus humboldti),and the Humboldt Current that allows wine grapes to grow in Chile are all named for an 18th C gay scientist whose love letters were all burned and who left his entire estate to his “valet.” 🏳️🌈
