HE LOOKS UP GRINNING LIKE A DEVIL

Had to go see the mural in person and it turns out she’s GLORIOUS. Thank you @spotify, it’s been an honor revealing new lyrics with you all week 🥰

I’m writing this post about the upcoming midterm elections on November 6th, in which I’ll be voting in the state of Tennessee. In the past I’ve been reluctant to publicly voice my political opinions, but due to several events in my life and in the world in the past two years, I feel very differently about that now.  I always have and always will cast my vote based on which candidate will protect and fight for the human rights I believe we all deserve in this country. I believe in the fight for LGBTQ rights, and that any form of discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender is WRONG. I believe that the systemic racism we still see in this country towards people of color is terrifying, sickening and prevalent.

I cannot vote for someone who will not be willing to fight for dignity for ALL Americans, no matter their skin color, gender or who they love.  Running for Senate in the state of Tennessee is a woman named Marsha Blackburn. As much as I have in the past and would like to continue voting for women in office, I cannot support Marsha Blackburn. Her voting record in Congress appalls and terrifies me. She voted against equal pay for women. She voted against the Reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act, which attempts to protect women from domestic violence, stalking, and date rape. She believes businesses have a right to refuse service to gay couples. She also believes they should not have the right to marry. These are not MY Tennessee values. I will be voting for Phil Bredesen for Senate and Jim Cooper for House of Representatives.  Please, please educate yourself on the candidates running in your state and vote based on who most closely represents your values. For a lot of us, we may never find a candidate or party with whom we agree 100% on every issue, but we have to vote anyway.

YET FUN AND PARTYING

Melbourne show 2018

There once was a snake known by everyone and no one.

Her name was Karyn.

No one understood her, or tried to.

Most people were scared she was going to swallow them whole.

This made Karyn sad. No one wanted to be her friend.

So she just hid away in her underground world where no one could find her.

But then one day word came around to her that there was someone just like her.

Someone misunderstood by the world.

Someone people didn’t bother getting to know before judging them.

This made Karyn feel less alone.

She met up with this person and the both instantly got along.

Karyn and Taylor; two misunderstood souls that felt so understood by eachother.

Taylor told Karyn about her tour.

And her plan to turn people’s words around so they didn’t bit them.

Karyn loved the idea and now they’re happily on tour together.
