Married, mid 50s man figuring out my femininity and trying not to be gender-performative (I wore a dress once & loved it. Well, more than once). Kind of a hot mess. Happy to make friends who are kind and inclusive. He/Him DMs open.

🚨 ATTENTION 🚨 There are WAAAAAY too many men on this platform who have conflated being an abusive asshole with being a "Dom." This needs to STOP 🛑. Talking to a stranger like this is NOT OKAY. Doms: 🩶 Get consent 🩶 Care deeply for their subs 🩶 Check in 🩶 Meet needs 🩶 ONLY use degradation IN SCENE

If a woman decides she can trust you — if she feels safe enough to let you close — know that she didn’t give you that trust without carefully weighing what it might cost her. That trust is sacred and fragile. Don’t take it lightly. Treat it with care, and honor the woman who placed it in your hands.

The irony of how starting to more often explore a different gender expression and the ads on my silly phone game showing me the merits of period cups is kinda priceless.

Hey, friends. I have been meaning to do a thread about what I've been up to for the past 3-4 months. 1st, I think it's time to publicly acknowledge that I am bisexual. For some of you, I am sure that isn't a shock. But, I realized this is who I am and it is important to be open about it. 🧵

Sometimes I think of when we were young, we didn't have a care Why do all good things come to an end? Seems like it was just yesterday, the flame of youth was never here to stay And we said, "Goodbye" to the way things were

The truth is, you’ll never really know how far your kindness travels. Something you said in passing might still be echoing in someone’s mind. A small act that felt routine to you might have meant everything to them. Don’t underestimate the ways you may have made a difference in someone’s life.

My lovely and dear friend @shuttahbug.bsky.social is struggling for a 2025 song. This one resonates and speaks deeply to me. Listen to the words - for where we all are in our respective journeys, she's got some wisdom. Enjoy! youtu.be/F9wFhEtjU_g?...

I think there is some inherent inequity and irony in the fact that, in my inexperienced purchasing of dresses, most of them have had pockets.

This is legit. As someone who has been navigating some pretty heavy things, especially the past month or 3, I can attest that the "I'm totally fine" thing can be exhausting. Regardless of your gender, I know how tough it is out there. Hang in there, folks.

I. Love. This. Grim's take on the Go-Go's is spot on. "View to a Kill" was so fun to me b/c it was my generations Bond film with my generations music. I love all of these takes.

May 17th is commemorated worldwide as the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia to raise awareness for the discrimination and violence LGBTQ+ people face because they don't fit in someone else’s ‘normal’. Let's all do our part and speak out against hate! #lgbtqia #IDAHOBIT

I recently completed my dissertation that initially focused on allyship to the LGBTQ+ community. It evolved (feel free to ask me so I can be insufferable in talking about it!) to mentorship to and from individuals who share a positionality but seeing Ms. Hathaway speak like this is wonderful.

Love can't be sustained on vibes alone, and intellectually knowing you are loved by someone is not the same thing as actually seeing how that love is being shown to you. Love is not a feeling, but a verb.
