Autumn 🍂🏳️‍⚧️

Like, I carry skate rat stoner type energy and guys read that as "you're a dude".

Skaters and stoners aren't all men. Pls. Aaaaaaa zzz

One of the frustrations with being transfem but not a barbie doll is that a lot of dudes misgender me just cuz I can pal around with them.

It sucks. Some are just dicks. Others view treating me as "one of the guys" as a sign of friendship. But it makes me hella uncomfortable.

I :3 constantly to pretty much everyone these days.

Power move. :3

Gave my ankle a week off, my manuals are SO CLOSE now aaaaaaaaa!!

I landed a few short ones while rolling today, still working on consistently getting in to my lock-in point. Progress! :3

Got back in to skating and been working on my manuals lately!

Hell yeah! Super excited for book 4 :3

Release day giiveaway! Fɾee mask. Bluesky exclusive. Share + comment to enter rafflle for a fɾee mask (plus other goodies I’ll drop in the box). Yes, I’ll ship internationally. The mask has minor cosmetic flaws, but it’s cool as fuck. Background image shows the hardcover of Feral Flame with the buffalo illustration, and a dark canid mask over a moody illustration with a feral wolf.

Help me spread the word, and good luck getting that mask!

To raise the spirits a bit, the new path league has been pretty fun. It's been nice to reconnect with friends and spend hours sharing laughs together.

The tree breeding jokes have been non-stop lmao.

My heart goes out to every single person who went without pay and without food in the promise of your healthcare being protected. Only for 8 senators to cave without protecting anything at all.

The amount of anger I feel at this cowardice is probably nothing compared to how y'all feel.

"The fascists promised me what I wanted!"

Oh...did you get it?

"No, but they promised we can talk about it!"

....you're so stupid.

Like imagine actually doing the right thing for once only to cave without even getting your main concession. All while public opinion gave you a mandate to keep fighting.

Effectively, you now just put working class people through hell for no reason. All you got was a promise of a vote lmao

It's genuinely impressive how spineless and useless the senate is.

Haven't skated in a few days so my ankle can heal up a little. Chillin with friends helps but tbh im SO BORED of sitting around lol

Hehe, hell yeah that's awesome!

Your hair is really pretty! :3

Honestly hella disappointed in my city for giving this guy a third term. We could've had something great with Fateh as mayor. Massive missed opportunity.

If you live in Minneapolis get out and vote later today when polls open! Our home deserves a mayor that supports the working class and has compassion for our most vulnerable neighbors! 🩷 :3

Photo of one of my boards in the late afternoon sun while I was taking a break on a bench.

Was practicing manuals again but on the bigger board today. Found my lock-in point, gotta build muscle memory for getting in to it consistently.

Also bailed while cruising cuz I hit a patch of slippery debris and made a businessman scowl at me lmao

Was a fun lil sesh. Progress. :3

Gonna miss it, Mesa got me through the worst hangover of my life like 8 years ago when I was here on a trip. :(

There's a spot called hometowne pizza over on 4th street downtown that has pretty good mac and cheese pizza if Chloe needs another source. There's a lil arcade in there too 👀

Aaaaaa the mac and cheese pizza was such good munchies food. :(

Reminds me of when eggy's closed down earlier this year. First place partner and I got breakfast at when we moved here. Now I skate past the empty space and miss it. :(

Wait actually?? Aaaa that sucks :(

I had good memories tied to that spot too.

I think my fav part of going to the park to practice tricks and ride around is that my board immediately gives me a vibe check on people lol.

The chill peeps smile, wave, etc.

The stuffy professional types give me disapproving glares or roll their eyes when I bail.

It's like boring ppl repellent

Bonus tips:

- bend your knees, you'll thank me later

- switch is for everybody, practice switch

- don't rush past your fundamentals, you'll regret it later

- be patient and don't try to sprint before you can walk so to speak, that's how injuries happen

Have fun! It's a hella fun sport :3

Things that a skateboard can teach you:

- Some of the hardest shit to learn is the most rewarding

- Believe in yourself, you're capable of great things

- Fear is your enemy, learning how to fight it gives you power

- Feeling unstable doesn't always mean that you are

- Laminated wood is dope af

I've been thinking about this again today. It's funny how much practicing manuals reminds you of just how truly in control of your board you really are.

Skating really is such a good medium for fighting fear.

My pushes are getting strong AF aaaaaaaa :3

I was cruising through the woods going fast AF today and it felt so good 🩷

Softness

Real talk tho, mids and small wheels all the way for doing anything flatground. I only have standards and bigger wheels on the other setup so I can carve it without wheel bite lol

I love that it only took 5 months of getting back in to skating for me to go from "1 setup for everything" to "this one is my silly trick plank and this one is my rocks and sticks won't kill me plank"

I'm sorry ankles, it will happen again tho
