Rock Against Hate Vols. 7 & 8, Benefiting LGBTQ+ Non-Profits Out Now

Lazlo's Corner
How are you doing?
Seriously, how are you really doing?
I asked that question right after the election last year, because many of us were downtrodden and not in a good place. Now with the country, and the world, in a much worse situation (in my opinion), I hope you are holding up okay.
For me, it is no longer watching the news, and trying not to read news sites too often each day. I hear some news each day from places like The Daily Show, and Stephen Colbert. In comedic form, it is somehow slightly more palatable... or at least I have someone empathetic trying to talk about it in a way that maybe I can laugh.
I also find myself wanting my entertainment to be less serious. I used to watch a lot of dramas, now I am drawn more to comedies. Same with books. While I will play music on BlowUpRadio.com that is dark, I currently enjoy listening to music that is more fun.
And I can't even begin to tell you how much doing BlowUpRadio.com during these troubled times brings me comfort and joy, so thank you reading these newsletters and listening to the station!
Hopefully you have ways of coping with all the madness going on around us.
Please feel free to drop me a line and let me know how you're doing if you need to talk.
If anyone is really having a crisis and needs more help, please call or text 988.
For the LGBTQ+ community, you can get help form The Trevor Project here: https://www.thetrevorproject.org/get-help
Remember, we will get through this, and most people are not bad people. Look how many people peacefully rallied at No Kings Protests across the country this past weekend. It is hard not to feel something positive from that.
