Godless - Queer - Jesus Freak. That should give you a clue that I've had a wide range of experiences (and that I don't take life too seriously). The complete bio can be found here: https://a.co/d/5clIi6w
In the tradition of "Queer Eye," we must assist people in avoiding a fashion faux pas. Let's focus our stylish sensibilities on frumpy ICE agents, since we see them in public sooooo often now. Alexandra Petri to the rescue! www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...
ICE Agent or Just Some Person?
There’s a dress code to help you make that determination.

Brain Teaser: I just won a costume contest at a sing-a-long Mary Poppins movie showing. This was my costume design. Can you figure out how the graphic relates to the movie? (Read as two columns up to down). If you have the correct answer, I'll let you hold the Mary Poppins umbrella I won. ☂️🙂

I don’t know much about these guys on ice with sticks, but I’m happy that my soft serve ice cream melts a lot slower than during outdoor summer sports. Family Night Outing at Pride Night Firebirds Hockey, Palm Springs.

It was too cold (50F/10C BRRR!!!!) for the ugly Christmas dresses from Walmart, so my husband and I went with Trailer Trash onesies (also from Walmart) for the annual Santa Pub Crawl in downtown Palm Springs. Happy Holidays!

Hate speech has risen since the November election, creating fear and anxiety within many minority groups, including the LGBTQ+ community. Palm Springs quickly organized a community forum to address citizens’ fears. Police Chief Andy Mills is on top of it. I love my town. ❤️

A Thanksgiving text with my bud.
As Wednesday Adams famously said, “Years from now my people will be forced to live in mobile homes on reservations. Your people will wear cardigans and drink highballs.”

11 years as “an item” and 2 years legally married with this one. Our meeting anniversary and wedding anniversary are a week apart, so we split the difference and celebrated this week. Love you, André Chambers! ❤️

It’s tough having a gay father-in-law sometimes. Fortunately my progressive son-in-law takes my humor in stride.

I met gay porn star idol Al Parker while helping to roll out the AIDS Memorial Quilt in 1988. With the recent election, things may look bleak. But we fought hard for justice then, and we can do it again. Sadly, Parker died in 1992, but he was on the protesting front lines until the end.

This is the book I published in 2024. It's 17 short essays about dealing with folks that may have polar opposite ideas from you about politics, religion and sexuality. You can find "The Godless Queer Jesus Freak Explores How We Can Get Along" here. a.co/d/2U783OU

So when did I suddenly become a writer? I've been writing for a living my entire life. But it wasn't until recently I had the bandwidth where I could write for fun. Check out my writing bio here: www.amazon.com/author/thoma...

"Merman" is the short documentary film about my husband, Andre Chambers. It won top honors last June at Paris' Champs-Élysées Film Festival. I made this 9-minute documentary about the behind-the-scenes antics of him winning this big-time award … quite unexpectedly. youtu.be/eQtuNAFjrZA?...

Because sometimes you just need to be near the world’s largest shuttlecock. From a recent visit to my hometown. Nelson-Atkins Art Museum, Kansas City, MO. At age 3, I started (and probably ended) my artistic career here with finger painting classes in their basement.
