Happy to share part 1 of my 3-part series on self-trust!

You want to get close to others but something always gets in the way. It’s time to address one root of mistrusting others: the ability to trust yourself.

Anyways, supporting the Black community and Black people should not be conditional, momentary, and/or solely tied to horrific events that continue to happen to us and our community.

‘Queer Voices’ Has Been on Air for 50 Years. It Must Stay There. Listening to hope and history on KPFT.

Queer Voices on KPFT has been an essential first-person chronicle of LGBTQIAP+ experiences in Houston for 50 years.

They deserve to stick around for 50 more. And 50 more from there. And 50 more from there. Etc.

My biggest incentive to stay healthy is dodging spending the next 40 years in waiting rooms filled with a noxious combination of “country” “music” + whatever every patient & front desk worker has on their phone 🙂‍↕️✌️❤️‍🔥

A friend’s kiddo was raising money for his school and I donated. Just received this precious message in the mail 🥹. My favorite part is “other side.” So clear. So simple.

Look, if you're still complaining about where your news will come from because NYT and WaPo haven't done their due diligence in a while... seriously. Local journalism. State journalism. We show you how national stories have down-to-the-neighborhood impacts. Don't sleep on the work we do. Fund it.

I’m co-starring in a new play by Emily Hynds!

The Imp is a one-hour somewhat dark comedy about two friends yapping after an immersive theatre experience. Starring Antoine Culbreath and me, with Andrew + Annie Love.
