I found my old LiveJournal from 2005. It’s a time capsule of church life, internalized shame, glittery hope, and me trying to smile through the confusion.

This photo is from those Vineyard days. I was the ex-gay testimony guy, full of worship team energy and repressed everything.

Over 300 of us showed up at the Capitol this week. Our testimonies were so powerful, two awful bills were pulled. I spoke against SB 1710. When I shared my pronouns, Sen. Randy Fine mocked me. My pronouns aren’t a joke. Vote no on SB 1710. #PrideAtTheCapitol #ProtectTransLives

Standing together. Fighting for our rights. Trans people exist and always will.

Took a day to rest before heading to Tallahassee for three days of action with Equality Florida at the capitol. Hot tub after the rain was needed. Hyped for the Sisters' Exorcism on Wednesday! Hallelujah! ❤️ #TransRights #ProtectTransKids #LGBTQIA #EqualityFlorida #MutualAid

Saw #QueenOfTheRing and felt inspired 💪🔥 Mildred Burke in 1954 is my body goals, and I rocked my Rhea Ripley shirt in honor of another powerhouse 💥🏆 Strong women past and present - legendary energy.

Took a break from exercising after a weekend in Saint Pete—kickball, volleyball, tennis, pickleball—then protested Trump in Tampa. Feeling strong, feeling good, and loving that this is what 41 looks like.

🔥 Tampa showed up to protest fascism & dictatorship.
Folx made it clear: We won’t stand by as democracy erodes.

Northshore Park before volleyball. The breeze reminds me to slow down. I don’t need to fill the silence with assumptions. People will say what they say. I’m just taking it as it comes. Or at least trying.

Morning music therapy before the 9-to-5. ☀️🎸
Strumming Beyoncé’s "II Most Wanted" because I’ll be your shotgun rider ‘til the day I die.

Starting the day with music, a little fresh air, and some cowboy energy. 🤠✨

Woke up early, hit the gym, and played some Beyoncé country on the guitar before work. Still trying to convince myself this is the move, but at least the sunrise had my back. #NewToTampa and missing #StPete

If trans people existing bothers you, the problem isn’t them.

Grateful for work-from-home days that let me reset mentally while staying productive. Bonus: a peaceful backyard retreat courtesy of a kind friend's generosity. Meal prep and a little sunshine go a long way. 🌴💻 #WorkFromHome #MentalHealth

After a full day of projects and planning, I stepped outside to soak in a moment of strength and reflection. Freezing water? Sure. Feeling sexy and grounded? Absolutely. Here’s to finding power in the small things.

Dodgeball with FAMLeague, volleyball with HotMess Sports, and cheering folx on every step of the way. January has been full of sweaty games, queer energy, and so much love for my teams. Grateful for spaces where we can thrive, be loud, and support each other fully.

I’m so proud of our HotMess Sports volleyball team here in Saint Pete, Florida! We might not have won a game yet, but we’ve had an absolute blast. Making folx feel included and helping each other get better every week is what it’s all about! Can't wait for the next game and more laughs. 🌞🏐💪 #Florida

Starting the day with some fresh greens (the good kind 😉), meal prepping like a pro, and diving into work from home. Feeling fun, flirty, free, and ready to own this Monday. What should we do next? 🌿💻✨ #WorkFromHome #MealPrep #FreshVibes

First-ever Baldur’s Gate party with an all-halfling squad: Floppers (me 🎶), Renee, and Swamp Frog (already iconic). Snacks, dice, and tiny but mighty energy—let the chaos begin! 🎲✨ #DnDParty #HalflingSquad #FirstTimePlaying

We’ve got a long fight ahead, but we’re still here. Still queer. Still strong. Sometimes it’s the small acts of showing up as yourself that feel like resistance. 💪 #QueerStrength #WeWontBackDown #LGBTQIA #TRANSRIGHTS
