This was a lovely human. I met her many times professionally, and she was kind, down-to-earth, generous, and always curious about my life and work. Several years after our initial meeting, she remembered my name and greeted me like an old friend.
Very sweet person.
RIP, Loni Anderson

Stay away from children. Period.

It's really this simple.

Not a word of hatred. Not a note a cynicism. Not an ounce of fear. Not a second of rage.
Just truth.

Please feel free to share this with people too stupid to understand that 'one person' doesn't pull these numbers from their ass.

I don't want to deal with this shit today. I'm fucking exhausted by it all. One goddamn day without his disgusting face. Ten minutes of no whining, bitching, or bullshit. 5 minutes of no trauma or drama.
Every minute without his obituary is an eternity.

Pete.

Shit. I'm sorry. For all of it.

I'm here if you need an ear.
Sending hugs your way.

August 2nd. A good day to start thinking about my Halloween mantle. The theme this year will be, "Undertaker's Junk Drawer."
This was 2024. The theme was "Shit I scraped together to make what I thought would be kind of a cool Halloween mantle."

That IS a bummer. Holy shit, I'd be pissed. I saw him in June. My siblings, along with adult nieces and nephews are catching his show together in October. He tours quite a bit. Hopefully you'll have another opportunity.

The same crowd that screamed, "Fuck your feelings"? Not an ice cube's chance in hell. I have these people in my neighborhood. Gay, married couple. Total Trumpers. We were friendly before Shitler. Now, I'd sooner drink a bucket of pig shit than nod in their direction.
We owe them NOTHING!

No one gave a shit if a gay man was lonely navigating a homophobic society. No one gave a shit if a woman was lonely in an abusive marriage. No one ever gave a shit if the Black kid in a white school was lonely.

But we all need to care about straight white men being lonely.

Miss me with this bs.

That's a good thing, Steven. It's more important than we know to give a hearts and heads a break. There is too much, too fast. I'm proud of you for taking care of yourself. I hope you have a good day, my friend.

If you're not following @stevehofstetter.bsky.social ,
you should.
Incredibly funny, relatable, vocal LGBTQIA+ ally and advocate, diehard feminist, and a seemingly decent human.
Watching him take down a heckler is a *must see*.
Check him out on YouTube.

The struggle is how to live in duality. To allow good things into our lives, in a world full of hate and chaos. 24/7 high alert is unsustainable.
We must fight like a motherfucker to hang onto anything that brings us joy, peace, and moments of happiness.
In this nightmare, give yourself grace.

Harsh reality.
Life cannot continue 'as normal.'
Whether we like it, or not, we will need to take to the streets and take our country back.
No one is coming to save us.

Very nice Bourbon. An old favorite.

Have you tried Bondstone Double Oak?

We need to take to the streets and burn it all down, NOW! In another year, there will be nothing left to fight for.

Corporation for Public Broadcasting says it's shutting down The Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which funnels federal money to public media stations, says it's winding down operations after President Trump signed a law rescinding all funding.

This sickens me to my core.
It's time to burn this fucking place to the ground.

"What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger."
Yeah...fuck that.
Strength doesn't come from pain. Pain leaves scars, wounds, and trauma that can last a lifetime.
Strength comes from being loved and nurtured.
Strength is the lack of doubt that you belong wherever you are.
