If you haven't caught up, I'm sorry, there's still time. You just have to put forth the effort, it isn't forced on #GenX, it isn't curated for #Millenials. Get up, do the work, have fun. I hope this reaches people who need it. These longing videos and sentiments are a #glamourshot, not a #polaroid.

Yes, we have lost #thirdplaces. Yes there is a little too much surveillance, but we connect so much more now, deeply. We have the selves we wave like a #flag and the selves reserved for those we trust, it's #beautiful, it is #known.

People who took the time, time they didn't have to teach us how to take their place. So now we long for people to do the work for us again. The #holidays don't feel the same. #Socializing takes effort. #Events take planning.

These #80s and #90s #nostalgia videos are something else. "We lost so much". This is some real rose-colored-glasses nostalgia here. I was there. It was shit. It was chaos. It was all held together with popsicle sticks and binders. #IwasThere #life #lookback #childhood #adolescence #growingup

I picked up a bunch of new books on our 'cule date two days ago and let me tell you, I am absorbed! Fantasy, Poetry, Horror, I love the feeling of slipping between worlds. #books #fantasy #reading #joy

Rep for an amazing person. I just watched her #interview on #WeNeedToTalk. It was truly #inspiring. #RósaAriannaMcGowan

You don’t need #closure from people who never offered clarity. #quote #healing #emotionalabuse

Sometimes people believe something is true, because it fits how they want to see you.

Moments where I wasn’t necessarily seeing myself directly represented, but I was finding pieces of myself anyway. Through corners of stories that weren’t written with me in mind. It’s a kind of emotional renovation. Taking what exists and shaping it into something that can hold you.

It struck something familiar inside me, a recognition of a practice I’ve been doing instinctively for most of my life, long before I ever had language for it. I started thinking about all the characters and narratives I’ve claimed over the years. Either to myself or to my tribe.

Today I came across a #quote in "It Came From the Closet" that resonated deeply with me. The phrase was “reparative reading,” described as the way marginalized audiences creatively engage with stories that were never meant to sustain them. #queer #quotes #reading #lgbtq #lgbtqia+ #pride #books

I am strengthening my #goddessera. The #path parts before me. I am light. I am fire. I am passion. I am joy. All the pain, all the disappointment, all the failure, all that I have endured, this is ash that I rise from. It is fuel to build. #phoenix #reborn #pagan #witch #Inanna #Lillith

All that was taken from me has been returned. They don't know me or where I am. They don't know of my circle. They wouldn't recognize me on the street. Access to me has been denied. Every lie on their lips burns.

It's days like today that remind me of how #thankful I am that all of the fake, low-energy people have been removed from my life. It is #providence. Through #Inanna i have found hopeful joy. Through #Lilith I have found strength and #pride. #returntosender #witch #queer #trans #pagan #thriving

Getting to be me in my full size, stretching to the sky and across the penumbra, leaves me with a vibrancy in my soul that is seen in my eyes and felt in my touch. I #glow. I'm bringing #love. Reach out and glow with me.

Today, looking at me now in comparison, I am the phoenix. That person is ash, and that ash fueled my becoming. I am thankful for what I learned, and where I am finally, but I am most thankful for finally being able to let go of that character.

#Loving the #journey. Every once in a while Facebeef shares one of those "hey, remember 10 years ago" things. Today it was a pic of me with a beard. I tried so hard to #gender for my dad. For my partner at the time. I love acting, so it felt good to #perform.

I know that they will draw suffering to themselves. I can't say there isn't some satisfaction knowing it, but I'm not going to look for it. They're dead to me and the rot fuels my growth. They've never touched me. They don't know me; could walk past me and never realize. I am a #phoenix #reborn.
January 19, 2026 at 7:08 AM
And #accepted that death. You cannot step twice into the same river, it's a broad #axiom. I did my best with what I knew and where I was. No lies can disguise that. It is known. #Karma can eat them, I've chosen not to hex unless they give me further reason. That was a discussion in itself.
January 19, 2026 at 7:08 AM
It's sad, but they are responsible for their #choices. I'm leaving them in the #past. Well, some of them. One is a part of my present and #future, it's #beautiful how decay brought life back to an old flame. No more #bindings, no more limiting #energy beating me down. I #grieved their #death.
January 19, 2026 at 7:08 AM
I am continuing to #learn and #grow, blossoming. I hope that I continue to #inspire others. I've always worked for that, though usually by #sacrificing myself. I don't do that much anymore. I've #learned. I'm growing past the #disappointment my #exes left. They did their best with their limits.
January 19, 2026 at 7:08 AM
It's been a minute and my nightly ritual has taken a little longer than I intended. So as I quiet my mind again, let's speak into the #void again.

I never thought I would make it this far. I feel blessed. I feel guided. Sometimes my vibration is with #Inanna. Other times it is now with #Lilith.

ICE agents terrified of the pushback, as their families, and friends turn against them. As a result, DHS is having trouble getting volunteers to attack innocent citizens.
