I’ve not figured out yet how I want to utilize this platform. A photographer I follow on insta clued me in to the fact that one can be more free here with artistic expression than on that platform (nudes, etc.), so I may start using it more for photography and art than discussions like fb. Thoughts?

Heard the BEST joke this morning. Props to Christopher Titus.

“We didn’t want a vagina in the White House, so we voted for the other side of the taint”

More evidence of the clown in chief bankrupting our economy just like most of his businesses (including casinos — how do you bankrupt a casino?!?!?). He is and always was a better con man than business man.

If you’re interested in the legislation and other legal actions being taken against the transgender community, tune in tomorrow.

The state and federal legislatures continue their hateful, discriminatory, anti-constitutional attacks against the transgender community. It’s pathetic. But it’s also very frightening.

All of this winning 🙄
I can’t take much more #greatagain
My wife’s 401k has dropped $10k since 🍊💩🤡 took office. That’s just over a month. We’ll all be dead broke by thanksgiving at this rate.

249 years of American culture and distinction erased with an immature tyrant’s illegitimate “executive order”.
That’s how absolutely pathetic this sad excuse for a nation has become.
I’m mourning the loss of my country.

Quick lesson on American Government:
There are three branches.
The LEGISLATURE writes the law
The JUDICIARY interprets the law
The Executive ENFORCES the law AS WRITTEN by the legislature and INTERPRETED by the judiciary.
These “executive orders” are an UNCONSTITUTIONAL ABUSE OF POWER
STAND UP!!!

Just waiting on some wieners.
Happy Saturday y’all.

It’s been a long, tough week. I foresee a lovely soak in my near future. Manifesting it into the universe.

We had a great evening yesterday seeing Artikal Sound System in a teensy venue in Dallas.

Y’all doing okay?
It’s a lot going on right now.
Lots of stress and worry.
It’s going to be okay though.
Somehow. Some way. Some day.
Hang in there. I love y’all.

First painting in YEARS! I’m pretty happy with it.

Be vigilant y’all. The T (and all subsequent letters) has been erased from the US Government’s international travel website. This used to be for LGBTQIA+ travelers. But to the new government, trans and intersex people don’t exist. This is beyond alarming.

I had a truly fantastic day today with family and friends — and a photo shoot with blacklit body paint. It was tons of fun. I’m excited to get the photos back. In the meantime, here’s a selfie sneak peek.
