Aviva Ruse ~ LA is home, Boston & the Bay in Feb

Just signed up for Poetry I through UCLA extension 🥳🥳🥳🥳 so excited

Sometimes I see someone in a 12 step meeting and I’m not sure if they look familiar bc I’ve heard their story or bc I’ve gargled their 🥜s.

I’m thinking about going for my MFA again, especially as a mentor just suggested I major in nonfiction & minor in poetry & that just sounds so unbelievably perfect it’s almost holy.

Tour diary for NC & ATL last month will not be released on Substack but may be purchased by email for $25.

Someone needs to make a Regency era lesbian porn and call it Bridgertongue.

Ty. Her as baby 🥹

Happy Caturday!

@bobbygreyxxx.bsky.social I can’t find ur # can you pls dm it to me coming back to Austin 💋

In other news, I broke in my new clogs 🫶.

Okay guess what I went and it was worth it then I got railed by a hot European client good Shabbas to me

I need to clear something up as it’s been driving me insane. OxyCodone is not “Oxy” it’s generic Percocet. OxyContin is the drug that was so popular on the street it got the nickname Oxy and they barely make it now, so no, you didn’t get it from your doctor for your knee surgery, it’s not 2008.

Next month:

Austin, New Orleans, Nashville
April: Vegas, Palm Springs
May: San Jose & SF & maybe Eugene OR

💯

Was extra weird coming home from visiting New England a few weeks ago!

I know it’s too hot for my walk 😭

This is a long shot but does anyone have the screener for the new Scream I don’t want to leave the house to see it tonight dm me please

I love the scream franchise so much because it also kills me to answer the phone.

interviewed with a local dog rescue to potentially become a foster today when I realized I already AM a foster caregiver for men between forever homes.

🫶I was unsure about posting about it but your words have brought me great comfort and now I am glad I did.

Not anywhere close to ready to adopt — foster!

Every day is leg day

and not from

When I first moved to West Hollywood I found a 12 step meeting called “positives in sobriety” & I got so stoked to go bc I thought it was a gratitude meeting but I got there & it was for ppl with HIV.

Saw this sculpture at the entrance of a gym. One must imagine Sisyphus bulking.

Damn now I want Oreo ice cream cake

Haha yes!

I love when they knock each other over

I love it there

Happy Caturday!

There’s a version of reality that only exists when we’re together. That’s the magic! You won’t find it anywhere else 💕
