what’s up folks i’m back on tumblr this fine monday morning to sadpost. is anyone still here
desparate for love and attention and intimacy but terrified of having anyone close enough to see how empty and hollow my life is
our tour with Me Rex is over and it’s been the best thing ever and we’re so sad that it’s done but we’re so happy that we got to meet so many amazing people and play so many great shows and it’s just been the fucking best, hasn’t it?!
had so much fun last night that i reverted back to my circa-age-16 wanky guitar moves. please end me 😎 (📷@indiehorse) (at JT Soar)
what’s up i’m tired of being a self-isolating unlovable freakshow who can barely stay awake let alone concentrate on anything for more than 30 seconds
THE WORLD IS INCREASINGLY AWFUL BUT THEY CAN’T STOP US SINGING ABOUT QUEER SHIT TOGETHER, NOT YET ANYWAY
today i can tell you that we’re going on tour in March to play you our scary new songs. here are the dates! some of them don’t have facebook events/ticket links yet but we’ll add them soon!

ALSO all shows except nottingham will be with excellent friends ME REX.
they just released a staggeringly good record called “stegosaurus” in december (http://merex.bandcamp.com) and we’re so excited to have them with us!
ALSO so yeah we’ve been sold out of shirts for a few months (sorry!) so we’ll be printing more before this all goes down, if yr that way inclined. still have plenty of tapes tho if you wanna buy nudge nudge. as ever we’ll be keeping it as cheap as is humanly possible #punkprice
ALSO i hope it goes without saying, but still, saying stuff is important - the world is getting more and more fucked by the hour. we want our shows to be a safe space for everyone to have fun and be accepted and feel good and free from being harassed and we WILL kick off on yr behalf if any bad shit goes down. i know we are just a lil baby nobody band but if there’s anything that doing this thing has taught me it’s that community and solidarity and mutual respect and empathy and uplifting each other and listening to the experiences of others is the key, the only, ONLY way any of us can deal with how FUCKED everything is. we’re here for you, no matter who you are, and we hope that you might be able to get something good out of what we do. we are actually kind of a shy bunch but we love nothing more than meeting and talking to folks at shows and stuff, being a part of local independent & DIY scenes is just so immensely important and rewarding and we HAVE to keep these moments alive and above all INCLUSIVE in the face of a soul-crushing neoliberal racist cishet patriarchal ableist society. deep breath. goddamn.
what i’m trying to say is, I LOVE YOU. see you out there.

my band are doing the rounds next month, come hang out with us xox
late to the party but damn
seriously tho: the same order costs me 50% more than it did this time last year. in case you weren’t aware being transgender is fucking expensive
