Personal protection is everything. This year allow, I obtained 3 CCW permits in 2022 to add to the 2 I previously had & renewed 1 at least once. My MD Wear & Carry (CCW) Permit issued in August 2022, my Pa CCW Permit issued in October 2022 & my FLA CCW permit issued in December 2022 (came in the mail 12/26/22 or 12/27/22). I wanted to get DC & NJ out the way this month, but did not, but the start of 2023, they getting taken care of. Personal protection is everything to me, I want to be about to protect myself, my wife, my kids & any loved ones I’m responsible for. I can depend on law enforcement all the to protect & save me if they not around. So if they not around, I can’t hope for the best or hope they get there in time, I need to protect who & what I value. That’s what gun laws, gun permits & gun rights are for. I’m a law abiding citizen, so I should be entitled to these rights anyway, but I’m going to go through the proper channels necessary. #gunownersofamerica #gunrights #gunlaws #2ndamendment #secondamendment #lawabidingcitizen #protectyourself #protectyourkids #protectyourchildren #protectyourfamily #protectyourlovedones #protectyourwife #protectyoureverything #protectyourpeace #protectyourenergy #protectyourinvestment #protectyourassets #influencer #contentcreator #blackinamerica #livinginamerica #assetprotection #protectyourworld #gunownership #guntraining #getlicensed #gunlicense #gunpermit #ccw #concealedcarry https://www.instagram.com/p/CmuxQAsus4o/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[sorry-but-we-have-moved]

Some people are still a little confused about ACAB, like they say “oh, well, not ALL cops, i know many who are good at heart”

Yeah, but let’s say it’s a restaurant and not a police department, okay honey? Just because ONE waitress is nice to you, and the rest are all racist, bigoted, and basically won’t serve you if you’re black, or LGBTQ, that does NOT mean the restaurant is untouchable. It needs restaffed, BAD, or people will quit going there for dinner.

We look for workplace justice literally anywhere else, but when we stop just short of our justice system, that’s where the movement falls apart. You GOTTA demand reform.

Long post.

WHAT I‘VE LEARNED FROM LIVING IN THE BURBS SO FAR

Well, hmm. Let’s see.

Since moving from Brooklyn in 2017, I really thought that finding the *right* burb (a liberal, walking town with fancy coffee and access to trains and vinyl records) would be like living in some utopian dream where like-minded folks all happened upon real estate with yards, places to plug in amplifiers, and more room for the aforementioned vinyl. (If you’re dying laughing already, just remember I didn’t grow up in America. I grew up in NYC.)

Instead, what I’ve found is government inefficiency, an Old Boys Club mentality, a laissez faire attitude, and an arts culture that is still entrenched in the 1990’s.

And I’ve already made enemies.

Apparently, if you get involved like you’re “supposed to” but say something somebody doesn’t like, you are then cast off. In a relatively small town, this is palpable.

To be clear, we are talking about a place full of weirdo Democrats, presumably just like me! And yet I haven’t felt so out of place since, well I don’t know when. I’ve never lived in a place where strangers were a weird thing. I didn’t go to school here or cut my teeth on guitar here, and I frankly feel less than welcome.

Thankfully, I’ve found (a couple) weirdos who are weird in some of the ways I am. They thrive on diversity. They easily incorporate new best practices. They are funky and cool and they are also NOT in the Old Boys Club.

I’m sorry to have to get this burden out here, but after two years of relative COVID kibosh loneliness, I really need to say all this to move on with even being here.

I know I’m hella privileged to have a yard, a home studio, and a place to listen to the records. Why complain? Well, for all the good stuff that’s here (the farmer’s market I went to bat for, the clubs I’ve gotten gigs at, the huge parks that roll right into the countryside) there’s really a lot to fix. I came here for community and found that not all are brought into the fold.

I guess I’m saying all this now because, in order for me to find that store of energy I use to go and try to fix things, I need to drain all the way down and recharge first, because the loneliness really has been draining.

Life isn’t hunky dory for anyone in the good ole USA right now. Sure, we all have relative privilege even being here, (albeit some quite a bit more than others), but it’s still quite a scary place, isn’t it? But in New York I was just always trying to pay the rent. Now, I’m trying to keep my curiosity and hope alive and well in a place where change happens far more slowly than I am used to.

I know this is a long form of vague booking. I’m not interested in calling out anyone in a smallish town. It’s much more than just one person who feeds the oroboros here. Certainly, it is a culture that extends across this country, although on a spectrum. But even in this “liberal enclave” burb, I fear that too many think all is fine and well, when it really isn’t.

I guess I just hope that this post will wend its way into some psyche. There are a lot of young people here who are also not part of the Old Boys Club. They are a diverse crowd and we should make a little room for them. We should make a little room for more new ideas.

Sure, I’m glad of the town recycling bins and the solar capture park. The ability to properly separate all your garbage has historically been tough in a city like NYC. Here, in the burbs, there are ways where there is a will. I just hope this town I’ve chosen for my home remembers there’s a time for “this vs that” but it isn’t when dealing with actual people.
