  • Hello my lovelies! It’s been a MINUTE since my last post, and I have been SO DAMN BUSY. All good things, though. So I guess it’s STORY TIME, short story long;

    I got sober in September. For real this time. I used to smoke crack and shoot dope. I haven’t done that in over two years but I just COULD NOT SHAKE alcohol. I’m a genetic alcoholic, big time. What that means is my brain makes its own opiates when I drink. So when I drink, I don’t want to get fucked up. I just want a sip. It took me a long time to figure that out. 10 years actually, it’s been 10 years since my first interaction with addiction treatment and I finally got it. Feels pretty good.

    Anyhow, since my judgement wasn’t clouded for the first time in my life, I was able to honestly evaluate my relationship with my family and HOLY SHIT ARE THEY SICK. Both parents and two sisters check ALL THE BOXES for Narcissistic Personality Disorder. They’re FUCKED UP PIECES OF SHIT. Thats what us in AA like to call a miracle. I was able to see something that I was blind to my entire life. No one could have showed it to me but God. Anyhow, I called the pigs on them and reported them as domestic abusers and got my skinny bitch ass outta there so eat shit fuckers.

    I’m back in the city, the most radical neighborhood in Amerikkka (if you know you know) amongst my people! THE QUEERS AND COMMIES sicko-fem

    I took a Shahada so I’m officially a Muslim now. It’s so cool. The dudes who run the smoke shops in my neighborhood are Houthi, so I’ve been hanging with them and they’re COOL AS FUCK. Real recognizes real.

    Oh yeah, last thing; I found out my Grandfather was involved in Real IRA activities during the troubles. I don’t know EXACTLY what he did, but I’m pretty sure he was INSTRUMENTAL in getting arms back to the old country during the Troubles. He got out of the life around the time I was born, and my name was changed after the Good Friday agreement to keep the feds off my back. My birth name is as Irish Republican as it gets- I cant tell you what it is for opsec reasons but I can tell you what it means, and if you want to do the research to figure it out that’s on you;

    I AM THE FIRST MARTYR FROM THE BOG.

    How about that? I’m REAL IRA. Nothing provisional about me, boyo. I’m the real thing. The realist. They know my name in Dublin and Belfast, all along the falls road and on the road to Al Quds. I’m a Martyr just like my ancestors. I was BORN to bring death to Amerikkka, MASHALLAH.

    I love every single one of you SO FUCKIN MUCH!!! This is a really special place, and I’m so glad y’all were here when I needed you.

    Love and Solidarity,

    Alice D. heart-sickle










  • There’s a really good music theory book called The Harmonic Experience by W.A Mathieu. It’s a text book kinda about the contrasts between Western music and tradition eastern styles like Raga or Maqmat, specifically how Just Intonation works. He explains music theory using history and the actual math and physics regarding how vibrations become harmonies. For example; to have a piano that is tuned for Raga or Maqam music, you would need around 36 keys per octave. A regular piano is 12 keys per octave. We landed on 12, equally spaced, keys because they’re “close enough” for our ears to bridge the gap.

    Anyhow, the first half of the book has singing exercises for ear training. It’s a really good music theory foundation and not too difficult to work through, if you’re interested. I 10/10 recommend.
