I’m off to vestibular physiotherapy to get my brain scrambled again. Pray for me! Haha #yyc

Some random pics and videos from our gig at Prairie Dog yesterday. It was great playing twice, but exhausting! And watching the other bands was so fun!!!

A friend asked me to play this it from the movie Brassed Off. I said, “sure! It ain’t so hard!” Thought I’d share. Some liberties with tempo And rhythm were taken. Let’s call them artistic choices. #yyc #cookiemute #trumpet #bandgeek #gaybear

I’m going to the ballet today!!! I’m killing time by taking selfies before this afternoon’s performance of Romeo and Juliet. Seeing this has been a very long dream of mine. I’m absolutely obsessed with Prokofiev’s music for it. Here we go! #gaybear #eldergay #ballet #calgary #yyc #romeo&juliet

Looks like another huge water main break here in #calgary that is extremely close to where the last one was. I went to brush my teeth and had almost no water pressure. I thought, “the last time this happened was that huge water main break,” and sure enough…. #yyc www.reddit.com/r/Calgary/s/...

Look how happy this guy looks! That’s because, after many years of work writing a thesis and getting a Master’s Degree, he can now also say he is a published researcher. A short summary of my thesis work and findings can now be found in a peer-reviewed academic journal. #gaybear

Here is another blast from the past as I continue to accidentally new find ways to relive my childhood. I was at New Horizons mall the other day and found a little German shop selling Moravian stars. I had to get one! It was expensive, and bigger than expected, but I love it!

I checked out Calgary’s largest garage sale at the Thorncliffe Greenview Community Centre. So many people! Nothing too exciting (will I ever find a Walkman?) but I did haggle my way into two Corningware mugs. These are straight from my 1980s childhood! Seriously, did anybody NOT have these mugs?

I completely agree with the sentiments of this post but will add that AHS is full of brilliant folks, and despite the government constantly hamstringing us, we always find a way to take care of patients. I'm not sure we've crossed the line of complete failure, but we're marching right toward it.

It has been such a fun weekend so far! I went to a Wranglers game on Friday, and had a great meal at Model Milk Saturday. 17th ave was hopping both nights! #Calgary is such a fun city if you take a moment to forget the Trump-worshipping-christo-fascist style politics we’re forced to endure. #yyc

I went to see Nuremberg today, which stars Russell Crowe and Rami Malek. What an amazing and powerful movie! It holds so much relevance in today’s political landscape. It’s part of the Calgary International Film Festival (CIFF). Check it out if you get a chance! #yyc #calgary #CIFF #Nuremberg

Concert band giveth me confidence, and jazz band taketh it away. Having practice one block away from home is the best thing that had ever happened to me! I’m going to be devastated when I have to start driving down south again.

I know that it’s super trendy to hate the Calgary Stampede these days, but I, for one, have been having a blast there this year. I’ve lived in YYC for all of my 46.95 years and not a lot feels more sentimental around here. However, I absolutely refuse to do the cowboy cosplay. #calgarystampede

I won a coupon for some IV drip therapy at the Lilac Festival. I’m all hooked up and being filled with metabolism boosting vitamins. I’m going to be so skinny!!!! This place is like a spa. Plus, it has free snacks. And this recliner chair is giving me life. So relaxing! #yyc #gaybear

I snagged a few pictures from our concert at Knox United church on March 8th. I may look focused and "in the zone" but it was more like a feeling of complete terror. I was praying hard to God (it was a church after all) that I wouldn't mess up and that I would sound beautiful.

Anyone know why it's smoky as heck in the beltline? Smells awful. Is something on fire? I haven't heard any sirens. #Calgary #yyc

I had an amazing meal with @maxpetrock.bsky.social at Model Milk this weekend. It felt both nostalgic and odd eating a pretentious steak in the same place where I used to drunkenly watch drag shows in my 20s when it was still Detour. Great times then and now! #yyc #calgary #modelmilk #eldergay

Every single UCP MLA and Cabinet Minister needs to take a hard look in the mirror and ask themselves if these shocking allegations are what they had in mind when they signed up to serve our province. Albertans deserve better than this.

I had an absolute blast at House of Skate last night for 80s Synth Pop night! There was much dancing, skating and singing along to all the great tunes. I’m working on album art for our new synth pop band. #rollerskating #houseofskate #houseofskateyyc #calgary #yyc #80s #synthpop

The Rt. Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde, Bishop of Washington. She is a beacon of light in the dark. She is an example of how true Christians behave. Asking for mercy should not be considered a subversive act. If she can stand up to evil, we all can. cathedral.org/.../the-rt-r...

Watching a steady stream of tearful Tik Tok goodbyes from American content creators, and then seeing them all disappear as the app got turned off, has absolutely broken my heart. It is such a hugely important part of so many lives, including mine. This is absolutely gutting me.

The UCP have quietly cut funding for eye exams. Remember how they also blocked federal funding for dental health? The UCP might not think your eyes and teeth are part of your health, but we disagree. Death by a thousand cuts, at a time when so many of you are already struggling to make ends meet.

I finally got to try out NARIKATSU in Mission for lunch today. I had the katsudon, which was delicious.The unlimited sides were absolutely beautiful too, with the miso soup being one of the best I’ve ever tasted. And it wouldn’t be a proper Japanese meal without a mound of cabbage. #calgary #yyc
