Now that you’ve met the team behind Ghost Jukebox, it’s time to introduce the characters, starting with our protagonist, Ghostie! And since it’s the last day of pride month, we’d like to emphasize that our game is led by a nonbinary and queer character.

Hey all, and especially the cis allies out there: Things are dire in this country for trans people. Sharing memes & yelling at strangers won't help us, but direct aid to trans individuals will. If you actually want to help someone, Nic needs whatever you can donate right now.

Seeing people talk about the "DEI" orders but not much on the fact that they have added an A for "Accessibility" - ie, Disabled people. They are targeting disabled people too. And it looks like they are coming for the ADA.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

It's the 106th Molassiversary!
The Great Molasses Flood happened on January 15th, 1919 at the North End of Boston!
12,000 metric tons of molasses waves (25 ft tall at their peaks) burst from a storage tank, and rushed through the streets at 35 miles per hour!
