i think everyone would do a lot better if more of these "enormously successful" artists literally and figuratively stomped on the grammies. fiona grabbing nominations and still doubling down on calling them out is absolutely brilliant, but i wouldn't expect anything less from her.

grammy awards = more sales, so that's why people get salty about this shit. "respect of your peers" isn't half as important as a beach house in cabo

thanks to none of you for telling me that Fiona is covering Sharon Van Etten's "Love More" for the latter's 'Epic' documentary/concert

The singer [ Fiona Apple] had never heard of Prince George’s County before helping with Gasping for Justice, but she has become one of the team’s most prolific court watchers, volunteering three times a week and helping lead a committee focused on maintaining virtual access....

Thats cool - I wasn’t aware of court watchers. Sounds like a good thing for her to be helping with and drawing attn to (though I’m also glad she wasn’t the focus of this story).

She's doing good work.
Fiona Apple has a story for you. And it’s incredible. Asked me to share. She's become an avid, trained Court Watcher. Her observations helped people jailed pretrial file a civil rights lawsuit. Then came the retaliation. Shut off her access to court.A video story in 8 parts: pic.twitter.com/uhpgOLWFS6— Scott Hechinger (@ScottHech) October 24, 2022
