They should study journalists’ brains like they do with football players after they die.
The emails that you’re seeing now are news in themselves, but that’s because of how they’re coming out—a congressional committee released them—& the context in which they’re being viewed. A guy emailing a reporter talking about old girlfriends or saying someone is “dirty” is not a whole news story.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

I know it’s pointless to express but life really does just feel relentlessly unfair lately and after a decade+ being mired in the 24/7 meta awareness of all these arbitrary systems we’ve oppressed ourselves under, it’s simply not possible to muster any sense of defiant grit to conquer it

it's especially important as I gear up to release my full album next year! Bandcamp is the best place to support, and you can also buy from me on my website: www.jakegilesmusic.com

I'm humbly asking for your help.

as an independent musician, I pay for it all: making music, advertising it, playing it, everything. for tax purposes this year, I need to show that I'm making a profit so the IRS doesn't view it as a hobby. to do that this year, I have to make $439, exactly.
