Reader, walker, rather curious… Music, Literature, Art... these are the blood in my veins. Time spent outdoors is the air in my lungs.

Happy Sex Worker Pride Day
Sex worker has allowed me to live a life that feels worth living. Sex workers have granted me more grace, love, resources, knowledge, and kindness than I could ever express.
I wish for all sex workers to be safe, housed, paid, and protected.

I and many others who professionally researched and wrote about the first term of Donald Trump have said that his plan is to provoke a second Kent State as a pretext for martial law and the cancellation of the midterms.
Now we find Trump *dramatically* expanding bases for cops to shoot protesters.

Don’t ever fucking tell me Jews don’t care about immigrants and refugees. Cause I know for a fact most of you have forgotten the largest massacre of Jews on American soil happened just seven years ago and was *specifically* because of the Jewish mandate to help immigrants and refugees.
