Nov 12th, 2024 – let’s fucking go.
Hi loves.
Quick cross-social post before I begin a long and important days work.
HEAD TO THE CHAT PLEASE. I AM THERE, NOW. BE IN COMMUNITY. POST A PHOTO. CHECK IN. Tell us where you are and how you are.
I just posted this – below- to socials but you can guess what’s coming today. Huge changes to the Patreon and my approach to social media in the light of the administration handover and the internet deregulations coming. Larger post coming a little later today about … everything.
Stay tuned. Stay in community. We got this. We got this. I got you. You got me.
Let’s go. Let’s show them how it’s done when we gather forces and take fucking care of each other.

Nov 12th, 2024. FUCK THIS SHIT. LET’S FUCKING GO. 🔥
This is the fucking mood today. I don’t care if you don’t like me getting sweary and the algorithm punishes me. Fuck you, algorithm.
The election galvanizes. It is time. The internet will not hold in its current form with the deregulations coming. Look at twitter. Instagram and FB are next. Let’s mobilize, please. To the patreon. That chat there is where we go. Join. It’s free. We meet there.
I had the weekend to rest. I talked with dozens of power people in my queer / art / music / tech communities. It’s bad. We are pissed.
It’s time for massive changes, macro and micro. I am tired of feeling powerless. Tired of feeling overwhelmed by the mistakes of men. Tired, and angry AND galvanized. Tired of seeing the shock and fear on the face of my friends. Tired of apologizing for shit that is not mine. Tired of feeling like the wheels are falling off the bus and no fucking adult in the room is sounding the alarm or stopping the trip to take care of the wounded.
I will do it. I will sound the alarm. I will take care of my community. I will pull this fucking bus over.
DON’T MAKE ME PULL THIS BUS OVER, KIDS. Ha. ♥️
Tired of being patted on the head and told not to worry. Tired of being told to shush for the sake of the children. No.
Tired of women and children being put last.
Scared for my community of minorities and queers. Scared for my trans friends and friends with trans kids.
Wondering if and when they’ll come for the women and artists who speak out. Wondering when my account will be shut because of the stance I take on (fill in the blank.)
I am about to reach out to the entire patron community later today with a massive change in plans / platform approach for the coming year.
If you want to follow along and support the work and community, please do not wait. Please sign up for my patreon today. It is FREE to follow the Patreon at the entry level. Just do it. It’s easy to google, or follow link in stories, or patreon.com/amandapalmer.
It’s time.
Let it begin here.
I am ready for the fight.
♥️🔥♥️
