wait did i not post about

BUELFEST

i am running an online music festival for the boy's birthday! that's in November, so there are 6 months to submit sets that:

  • are between 0 and 20 minutes
  • have a sample of bueller in them
  • were fun to make

join the discord if you want to make something :)

(You can also make visuals for someone else's set if you want idk)

the BUELFEST staff would rather let artists perform who make up false accusations about trans women to try and ruin their careers, than that they would protect and platform the trans women in question. i think that is completely fucked up and i absolutely do not think any community or person that willingly allows that to happen should have any place on cohost.

i've been informed that several artists within the community have already expressed their disagreement with the situation. while none of them are pulling their sets since they don't want their work to go to waste, they aren't planning on ever working with the BUELFEST staff ever again. i think that is honestly understandable considering the staff are dealing with the situation this unprofessionally, and they're going this far to create an unsafe environment for marginalized people by doing this.

i think it's important to understand what kind of people you're supporting if you are performing at this fest or if you are planning on watching it when it gets broadcasted. don't wanna aid transmisogyny? don't give them your support.

it's actually nuts to me just how little effort the staff were willing to put into critical thinking but we'e happy to lie through their teeth in order to present the façade of a moral high ground.

i mean, this incident happened at the end of the weekend and i'm pretty sure this fest has been open for like, half a year or so? totally fine if you weren't aware of it.

i'm glad i put together a set in just two hours featuring just some IDs where i replaced the dog barks with bueller, lmao. besides how much i've been stressing over this, i didn't really lose much here.

yeah mine didn't take a long time either. the only bueller-specific stuff i did was just replacing the punches in 6fingerdeathpunch by six impala with barks lol. the rest is recyclable
