This is a reason for why the government should support the arts, it’s times like these when art is all we have as a healthy means of escapism. So, No I’m not getting another fucking job, and no other working artist should. When this is over they’ll be gagging for our tax money.

Many of you have been asking for the full version of the cover we posted yesterday, so we’ve decided to post the full thing on Band Camp. It’s free to stream, but if you want to download it, 100% of the proceeds will be going to the amazing charity @MindCharity LINK IN BIO 😘

This virus can suck a bag of fucking dicks. Glastonbury cancelled. Sam Fender postponed. Bon Iver no doubt to be cancelled. Summer ‘20 essentially cancelled. Not to mention all the indie businesses + artists suffering. Can we pls rewind 3 months and start again minus Corona ☹️

Things Covid has proven: 1. The job you were told couldn't be done remotely can be done remotely 2. Many disabled workers could have been working from home, but corporations just didnt want them to. 3. Internet is a utility, not a luxury 4. Universal healthcare is necessary

I live in Seattle, I have all symptoms of COVID-19 and have a history of chronic bronchitis. Since I work in a physical therapy clinic with many 65+ patients and those with chronic illnesses, I decided to be responsible and go to get tested. This is how that went.
