Forgot about B Sky for a min.

How I learned to Resist through childhood trauma.

Know the rules.
Know their history.
Know their intent.
Know the rules better than anyone else.
Do not break the rules, but operate in a manner that shows their absurdity and/or hypocrisy. Operate loudly.

Working 3 jobs, barely making rent while serving mostly retired people as the stock market crashes and I get to console them when they decide about their summer house. Meanwhile I’m trying to get off the phone to make it to the food pantry -not to serve but to pick up MY food for the next few days.

I like that my Facebook post from 16 years ago is me quoting Paula Cole asking where all the cowboys have gone. That’s a post that aged well. 😅

Oof I forgot about my own Bluesky. I’m buying a car soon. Probably a hybrid. Probably with AWD. I haven’t driven in almost 2 years.

There’s a big difference between walking 1 mile in Austin and walking 1 mile in NYC. I can’t explain that but it’s 85 degrees today and lovely.

Maybe when the economy collapses the “but her emails” folks will let go of the golden calf, but probably not. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Does tapping for the train count as spending today? Riding my bike to queens sounded like a bad choice.

Not a great news day but my house is spotless.

If the passport issue for trans people is not fixed in 6 months I will be unable to leave the United States legally. Nothing like setting up an offshore bank account as a “just in case.” I feel like my life is becoming a spy movie. 👀

I forgot that I like wearing sandals and can when I no longer live in fear of rats running across my feet. Are tevas still a thing or are we boycotting them? 👀

This is the House Republican budget plan that Donald Trump endorsed.

Trickle up economics.

Let people feed you. Don’t come empty handed to a home - a humble gift goes a long way. Be gracious, offer prayer, be thankful, and offer to help clean up. Stay for dessert. Send a handwritten note of thanks. Follow up a week later to ask for recipes. Invite hosts game night the following month.

I’ve been making my own French fries and chick-fillet sauce. I love my air fryer!

I had a therapist once tell me that my nightly anxiety was likely from holding in my anger all day. I felt read for filth and I paid her $175! #truestory

Walking the dog and my phone says it feels like 6. The 2 blocks to the bodega for coffee creamer has my inner ancestors thinking they should be gathering more fire wood. - I don’t even have a fireplace.

Minneapolis theater group doubles down on DEI initiatives as federal funding is threatened The theater organization says it recently received orders from the National Endowment for the Arts to stop promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion or be denied federal funding.

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

They were really good! I still don’t understand how they are always the most perfect strawberries. Mine are always mushy.

I cant stop giggling about the fact that I was called a bad person for being a trans pastor by an internet troll. I love that I make them so mad. 😆

Trans man tortured, found dead in Canandaigua The suspects were arrested Thursday night after police searched a motel room in Canandaigua, at the last place Sam Nordquist was known to have stayed.

Capt. Kelly Swift, who works with the New York State Police Troop E’s Bureau of Criminal Investigation, called it “one of the most horrific crimes” she has ever investigated in her 20 years in law enforcement.

Say his name! SAM NORDQUIST! 🏳️‍⚧️✊🏼

Thinking about making an “art piece” of a pallet of bricks with the names of those read at trans day of remembrance and just having it delivered to Stonewall.

😂😂😂

Show hog. 😅

Y’all better have my bail money ready. They erased the T from Stonewall.

“What does success look like?” When ONLY trans content comes up when someone googles my family’s last name. I’m no where close, but I’m trying! 😅

I love that I can’t shock people anymore with my adventure shenannies. If I said I was sailing to the Virgin Islands to start an off grid compound, my friends would probably say, “That sounds right. I love that for him.”

He sounds like a keeper! 😜

Not me on the J Train next to a queer kid watching Semler videos on TikTok. The kids are gonna be alright. 🥹

We might have the same vibe.
