When I have nothing constructive to add to a conversation, or when I'm dealing with a complex internal dialogue, I find it best for me to zip it.

This shouldn't be construed as support or being passive-aggressive; it's a boundary.

If the last few decades have taught me anything, it's discretion.

Hey y'all

Yes, it's that time of the year.

I'm a huge fan of the Birds (duh), and a football fan in general.

I'm not one to rub last year's standout performance in anyone's face. I'm a game at a time, week at a time kinda girl.

With all that being said...

Go Birds!🦅🦅🦅

We have three years, five months of this administration... I know, no one needs a reminder of that. Our elders and those who came before saw worse than some of us will see... and yet those communities found ways to survive through it - together.

I love my community and our allies!🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

We're heading backwards as a country, with laws added to the books to strip freedoms, to crush visibility - to drive us out of the public eye.

Be safe out there, be aware of your surroundings - use the buddy system if you feel unsafe (I've done it), know your rights.

When I came out to my mom five years ago, we had an incredibly tearful, loving conversation. During that conversation, she said that she never knew anyone in the LGBTQ+ when she was growing up (in the 50s and 60s), my reply was because they could be fired, ostracized - have their lives destroyed.

Hey y'all

It's Pride month ... y'all know Pride came out of resistance. People that were tired of being hassled, arrested - treated like second class citizens.

It's also about visibility... visibility without the threat of violence and retaliation.

Hey y'all

Do you know how to de-escalate a situation?

A few practical tips for the #LGBTQ2SIA community members and allies.

We can't count on others to protect us, we have to take positive action to shut down harassment.

It's the first step to keeping our events safe.

Be safe folks!

Thought I'd introduce myself

As someone who is mixed race and represents the 2S (Two Spirit), T and A out of the LGBTQ2SIA+, I consider myself #IntersectionalAF. I'm a lot of different things… The ones that matter are that I’m a parent, a partner, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a niece, a cousin.

You can assume that since the community took back the symbol, that post clearly sent a message to our community that we are the target.

To our allies, if you ever wondered what you would've done in the late 1930s-40s in Germany. This is your time to act.

Stand with us.
Make your voice heard.

So you might be wondering why I'm sharing this now. Let me share my reasoning; a couple of days ago, Donald Trump re-shared content on social media featuring the pink triangle in a red circle with a red line through it.
March 13, 2025 at 5:35 PM
In the late 80s, AIDS activists repurposed the triangle with the phrase "Silence=Death" to highlight the lack of medical progress in the AIDs epidemic. In the 90s, a pink triangle in a green circle were used as a sign identifying safe spaces for LGBTQ2SIA people.
March 13, 2025 at 5:35 PM
Eventually, the pink triangle came to identify both gay men and transgender women in its prison camps. Others in the LGBTQ community were identified by black triangles.

Decades later, the LGBTQ2SIA community took back that symbol.
March 13, 2025 at 5:35 PM
This pink triangle was a symbol first used in the 1930s and 40s by the German government to identify its prisoners. The government color-coded its prisoners to visually indicate why they were imprisoned. Early on, gay men were identified by a green triangle.

Whoops, looks like I left the light on in my apartment.

Done...

As a transgender woman in the US, facing this administration, I am channeling the energy of Alexandra Billings for the next four years.

I remember that our elders and those who came before had to fight like hell against politicians and cops to gain any rights or basic acceptance.

One of my connections on LinkedIn referred to Elon Musk as #PhonyStark

It's the perfect name for that clown.

Be cautious of this account, I followed based on posts and profile - they dropped into my DMs and started talking crypto (I don't want anything to do with crypto)

Then they dropped the word 'alaye' into the DM.

Alaye is a code word used in criminal slang and messaging to identify other scammers.

Whenever my friend Liz gets back from a business trip we always hit up our fave brunch place ... Bloom in Santa Clara.

I had the croissant french toast. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
