June 11 at Little Ghosts! Swing by and bring a friend!

I should be focused on "yay, my book is there!" but I'm distractedly dazzled by how well the cover colors flow 🤩 it's beautiful

Make horror gay AF! 🖤🌈

It’s June 1, so if you haven’t reserved your homosexual yet be advised that we’re into surge pricing now.

This Pride month, don’t forget about the trans and gnc activists who made this happen. People like Sylvia Rivera and Marsha P Johnson, whose leadership at Stonewall has now been stricken from all government websites by a Trump administration that wants us erased from history.

For Pride, I’m remembering Lucy Hicks Anderson, trans woman who transitioned as a kid in the late 1800s. She was an incredible socialite and cook, so much so that when she was arrested and a banker got her out of jail because they had a party and she was the cook!

We have always been here.

A sign in the background says New Hope church, God says homosexuality is in. In the foreground there are two men smiling holding the letter s that they've taken from the sign

Happy pride month ❤️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Johnathan Joss died a hero. He was murdered for being gay, he went out protecting his trans husband from being executed. They burned down their home and killed their pets and then they murdered Joss while trying to murder his husband. The New York times can barely muster "fatally shot." I hate this.

I’m so late in posting about this, but thank you to Neighbours of South Albert St. South Magazine for featuring me and my little family in their May issue. Huge thanks to Shawna for interviewing me and writing such a lovely article. And to @goodhabitsmedia for the photos! 🫶🏻

LOL I think it’s because they don’t have a poetry category so the poetry goes under the other bigger sections 😂
