Episode notes
Tacticool GF returns to A Better Way 2A for the second time to catch up on what life looks like after YouTube. She talks about why TGF was always meant to be a finite project, stepping back from firearms as the center of her life, competitive shooting, backpacking, photography, music, and spending a lot less time online.
From there, the conversation gets into the changing demographics of gun culture, queer representation in shooting spaces, firearms policy affecting trans gun owners, protest culture and why Americans can be so reluctant to act offline, surveillance and the commodification of our personal data, economic anxiety, and what happens when crisis simply becomes the new normal. They close with a conversation about getting outside, protecting public land, and why TGF thinks building real community with people around you might be one of the most important things we can do right now.
