Since today is Kurt Cobain’s birthday, I thought I’d share my dulcimer arrangement of Smells Like Teen Spirit. 🤘🏻🎸 #kurtcobain #nirvana #dulcimer

I’ve been learning to play the fiddle. Fiddle-dee-dee! #fiddle #fiddletunes #traditionalmusic

Johnson City’s tornado sirens are a vibe.

How about something in 3/2 time? This is my current fiddle tune obsession. It’s an old English tune called “The Cobbler’s Hornpipe”. #dulcimer #fiddletunes #traditionalmusic #celticmusic

It is *wild* to me that advocating for kindness is now seen as being political.

Today a lady told me I was blind to the Holy Spirit because I disagreed when she said Trump was the messianic king. I also had some really good pretzel sticks from Dairy Queen. How was *your* Wednesday?

Though we can never know what it’s like to be inside another person’s mind, I believe you must be broken on a fundamental level to find joy in another person’s suffering.

The occasional bit of Schadenfreude is one thing, but to derive amusement from the dehumanization of others is a sickness.

Had a fine time yesterday playing some tunes with my friend Alexis at The Scotsman! 🤗 #fiddle #guitar #oldtime

I have been visited by the blessed Mega Triscuit. The Quadscuit.

I thought I’d post my before-and-after here. Gender-affirming care saved my life!

I love it when my unread emails are a nice, even number. 🤗

Next Sunday I get to be the *guest* musician at my church. I’m pretty excited about it, because the idea of a trans woman getting up and singing an old-school Baptist hymn to a room full of Presbyterians amuses me. #church #trans

This may shock you, but sometimes when I’m on the road, I find myself thinking unkind thoughts about many of my fellow motorists. #roadrage

Maybe I’m wrong, but I feel like drinking the juice out of Vienna Sausages helps me play better.

I’ll be at The Scotsman in Waynesville tomorrow (Sunday Nov. 24), providing live dulcimer music from 2-5! 🤗

Being a transgender woman in the US is pretty scary right now, especially in Tennessee. I’m tired. This is my home and I don’t want to leave it. Recent events have made me realize I need to be more of an advocate for myself and others going forward. #trans #transsky #lgbtq

What’s that? You want a slip jig before bedtime? Well, alright… I hope you’re ok with Mad Molly. #dulcimer #jig #slipjig
