Live in Barcelona and Chicago w/ my husband, @ht_pckt. AI Tech Startup CTO (countrpt.io), world traveler, techno producer (Logyyk on Spotify), gamer.
A year ago yesterday, Joe and I moved our US base from SF to Chicago.
No furniture, no art, no bed...for 2 weeks, just lawn chairs and air mattresses. Very much a test of our (as anyone's) relationship, but we did it! We have a great life, the beach, and our chosen family.
We love Chicago!

Today marks 5 years ago that my baby sister, Sydney, passed away from metastatic cervical cancer at 29.
Gone way too early and with so much to give a life that was really just getting started.
We love and miss you every single day, Syd.

I am so humbled and proud to have been a part of the flag walk last weekend on the beach in Chicago. A true celebration with friends and family from all over. it's been a traditional for 7 years now!
So much joy, love, and pride!
I am carrying the trans flag.

It has taken quite a bit to get back to my bigger physique since being diagnosed with a rare blood disorder a few years ago where I naturally produce too many RBCs.
Lots of hard work, eating more, and lifting heavier, I am pretty happy with my progress. I feel pretty strong again!

So surreal to watch my favorite band's last ever live performance in Brussels from my laptop. Front 242 has been a part of my life for 42 years and I am so fortunate to have seen them 10 times, including last month in Barcelona (as a personal guest of Richard 23).
Thank you for 42 years.

Well, hello, Bluesky! Maybe I can look back on this social experiment in 20 years like I did for Facebook.
