due to hip surgery nonsense this is my first time wearing “hard pants” in 2026. which is a real shame when you consider what a baddie I am in them.

~2 weeks ago I requested ADA accommodations at work through email. I haven’t heard anything back so I decided to call instead. “this mailbox is full.”

saw this thing stuck and I literally clapped like a happy toddler. get wrecked.

a stupid delivery robot is stuck between a no parking sign and the column of an underpass. it is too wide to fit in the space and looks very foolish. no one is around to help because it is “autonomous.”

this is a cute sentiment and I definitely appreciate having a governor who sucks less than others, but I can assure everyone that the gay agenda is NOT more billionaire politicians

3 yrs ago today, on the last day of Pride, my beautiful fiancée and I eloped to the mountains of Colorado and got married. living proudly & openly as trans lesbians is not always easy, but these have been the most affirming yrs of my lil queer life. I have never loved more nor been more loved. 💕

first my step-daughter was in the ER & now I’m in a separate ER in a totally different city and they’re going to admit me & my wife’s not w/ me bc she’s at the other ER w/ our kid but at least I know this goose wheel on the supply cart’s got me

after a weekend of one word answers and shrugs from our daughter it was lovely to end our time together by her and my wife throwing water balloons at each other – no words needed. I stayed dry and cute to document it and take selfies with my wife.

they have officially left the nest and I’m emotional and so proud of them. very cool to see one “in the wild” as it were.

took our 13yo to @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social this afternoon. I promised myself I wouldn’t do the embarrassing parent thing and bore her with why it’s so special to see it in 70mm. instead I sat next to her & cried the whole time. 10/10 family outing.

I’ve been married to the most incredible woman in the entire world for 2 years today. this second year of marriage definitely tested the ‘in sickness’ and ‘for poorer’ parts of wedding vows, but we made it through because we are the absolute best team. happy anniversary to my wife for life!
