I think of the six songs I recorded as my adoptive babies. Well. Five adopted babies, and one franken-baby I made by mashing up parts of four other babies.

@ajroach42 wrote this very kind bio that makes me sound cool. I really love it, and it's from the zine we include with the public domain album.
Doctor Deathray
Born in Atlanta in the latter half of the 1900s, Doctor Deathray is a figure shrouded in mystery. She spent much of her adolescence learning the art of the blues while living under a false name, bouncing between the hills of rural Virginia and the dusty streets of various Atlanta suburbs before spending a decade studying her craft apprenticed to various musical legends in Muscle Shoals, Alabama and finally making a home in the hills and hollers of Southern Appalachia.She has, to date, recorded several dozen sides of original music, traditional songs, and covers. Frequently accompanied by a backing band known as The Implements of Destruction.
Doctor Deathray was gracious enough to bless us with fresh recordings, original arrangements, and even a fresh composition for this celebration of the public domain.
I love this so much. It makes me smile.

The eclipse was beautiful and rejuvenating to witness. Only partial here, but with 85% totality. I feel lighter.

We are cosmically small. But we are made of stardust, and we are here. And that matters.

Hello dear friends! I have been approved through insurance for facial feminization surgery! This is huge and something I'm incredibly excited about!! It's going to be life-changing, and it's something I never thought I'd have the opportunity to do.
But. I still have about $1600 left in my out-of-pocket maximum, and I know that's going to all factor in to this surgery. $513 of that must be paid by Thursday for facial scans. I don't have that kind of money.
I work three+ jobs. I barely break even. Loans aren't an option as my credit is completely shot unfortunately.
So I'm asking for help.
I have options for you! You can purchase music from my bandcamp! I have lots to choose from:
https://doctordeathray.bandcamp.com/album/51-miles-from-nowhere
You can hire me to do audio work! I'm an audio engineer with years of experience working with independent musicians and labels. More than happy to talk about any project you might have!
You can find my portfolio here:

And if you want to just simply donate to help, you can help fund things at:

Cashapp: vivihunter

Good morning! Don't just seize the day, steal the day. Pirate it. Take it. Shoplift the day. It's yours. Who's going to stop you? The Day Police? All you have to do is hide out until night and you're golden.

@roadriverrail thanks! I didn’t have any issues when I flew in September. But I always overthink things. I’ve got a window seat on two of my flights. An aisle on a couple. Anything but the middle

I always overthink flying, but I really don’t fly very often. What are your flight/TSA tips? (Especially for flying while Trans)

Hey! We've got a pre-order up of our new public domain album, "Revolting Music from the Public Domain." You can stream the four songs currently in public domain as of today, and get all twelve songs tomorrow!
@ajroach42 and I have worked hard on this, and this is something we've wanted to do a long time. I'm thrilled to be able to share this with y'all.
This year has been very rewarding for me musically, and this is my favorite way to cap off this year and kick off the next!

Anyone who buys anything physical from me today will get a heartfelt thank you note with your order with the most unhinged facts about my life I can think of.
