hallo loves.


quick hit from a coffeeshop in aotearoa new zealand. i just dropped ash off at school. i was about to head home and pop onto this live chat with KT tunstall but she’s unwell so wants to reschedule!! sorry bout that. Will let you know when we find a new time to jam it out....likely next week after the weekend recvery.

I'll pop on my Instagram Live today - in about 5 minutes. 10:30 NZ time - to just say hello and chat with you...and show you what life here in this little village looks like.

and we'll have KT next week, and probably storm, too. make sure you're following me on instagram and have notifications enabled for when I go live so you don't miss out....@amandapalmer

And, yes, I’m reading your comments about platforms and wondering how we can beat do this.

Have any of you used the “lens” feature on patreon? Thoughts if so?

Also, this just in... my musician pal Ben Lee, along with Johanna Samuels, Fortune Tellers Music, and Sid the Cat have organized a virtual music festival called "SAVE THE SENATE" to help raise money for the two Georgia Senate Run-Off Democrat Candidates up in a run-off election next month.

I know you probably all know how critical this is.

All proceeds will go to Fair Fight, an organization founded by Stacey Abrams to fight voter suppression and advocate for free and fair elections...

My performance is a humble, very scattered, multi-location (kitchen! yard! why not) iphone offering of “In My Mind”. Go for all the artists. This is gonna be great.

How does this work with non-US citizens? A podcast i follow (Cognitive Dissonance) raised $135k for ActBlue last weekend. However, I wasn't able to donate because it is illegal for funding from foreign sources.

Seconding what Gold said here. wondering if or how this works for any of us who are not US citizens. Lens? I have no clue what that even is.

Little Boots uses Lens on her patreon, but some patrons said it didn't work well on all platforms, but I don't remember the details. Might be worth talking to her about it.

As someone that doesn't have the Patreon app and only uses it on my PC , lens is *not* a feature. It loads less than 10% of the time, I only get to view the first or last image (videos don't play!), and I have to refresh the page to close it because the "x" button doesn't work. That said, if you started using it I might install the app to properly receive the content :)

Anyone else not receiving Patreon emails? I'm not getting any from any of my memberships

I support one artist who uses lens all the time. I wish there was a way to unsubscribe from those emails.

Okay, everything is clear, thanks for letting me know that the meeting will be postponed. We hope for her speedy recovery!

While the senate is still a thing that needs attention I wouldn't want this moment to go unmentioned... Just after 1 pm NZDT today Hawaii cast the final votes for the Electoral College. There were no faithless electors and the EC voted the will of the people. Short of an outright coup attempt by force Trump is out. It is legal, final, and done. I'm just a little surprised at the level of relief I'm feeling, and I'm not even a U.S. citizen.
