We made Valentines and told each other we loved one another (it was already implied but I'm glad we did) @dreutiful.bsky.social

"It won't happen here. America is still a free country."

Ah, yes. As long as we're putting all the little artists to work creating propaganda.

I guess I'll be looking for a new job soon.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

It's crazy how the right idea can change my brain chemicals. Not stressing anymore since I figured out the missing piece (hah) to my two performances. Now I'm daydreaming about sewing fluffy king cake pieces to pull off my costume one by one. 😂 I love burlesque.

Soooo excited for these next two performances. Getting to bust out Queen and King Katya on the same night for the first time in a year. I think in the future I'm going to keep this trend up of having both personalities appear. I really love getting to play with the narratives for this duo.
