Happy @sparkbird.bsky.social Music Release Day to all who celebrate it!

(But also you should all celebrate it because After The Ball is yet another incredible track. Go listen to it. It’s whimsy and storytelling set to music and I love it.)

so, just know that I see you as a person independent of what your parents are doing or saying

Sparkbird @sparkbird.bsky.social · 25d

I share these thoughts bc if I got to meet an artist I care about, I might be haunted by either of these scenarios... feeling like my parents had made me offensive by association, or that they misrepresented my identity. all of it could feel like it messed up my special moment

2. I take the pronouns/names/terms your parents use for *you* with a huge grain of salt. sometimes they're like "my daughter" and I'm like "sure"

1. sometimes at the merch table your parents misgender me and I see the horror/dismay/panic on your face because you don't feel safe correcting them and I just want you to know that it's okay, it doesn't reflect on you
