This past week I became a Burner. A truly beautiful and life-changing experience of art, new friends, lovers, fighters and radical enthusiasts that perhaps human connection above all can help heal our world. Until next year!! 🔥 PS I was gifted the playa name MINION 💛

I don’t think people realize time is coming after all of us. Bernie Sanders is the same age as Mitch McConnell. :/

We have an obligation to protect not only the people dying in the streets, but also (and more urgently!) those dying, hidden away, in detention. I wrote about a local Seattle struggle to save a Filipino migrant's life and how migration is intrinsic to US Imperialism:

Halloween. When everyone becomes just a little more trans.

A profound loss today. The work of #JaneGoodall has been a beacon of light in my life. Her example taught me that advocacy rooted in empathy and persistence is not only possible but essential, and that one person’s voice, sustained over time, can shift hearts, communities, and policy.

it’s Sunday on bluesky so I am urging everyone to take care of themselves. Take a walk, have a second cup of coffee or tea, read a book, spend some time looking at small poems

This may be the turning point into real action or a scape goat of blame against the Queer and Trans community. While I am deeply disturbed by the murder of Charlie Kirk, I am even more worried about the ripple effects of where we go from here. Action is needed. Gun control now.

No matter what happens on Tuesday I am incredible proud and ferociously hopeful about what the future holds. The conversations in community have shown me the resilience of our city and that fight will always fuel our campaign. RSVP at VoteRy.us #electionday #seattle

It’s time to build the future we deserve and we need your help in doing so. Vote by Tuesday to have a say in who will run this city and what you want to see from our local government. The choice is yours, and I hope to have your support. #seattle #fyp #elections #mayor #2025 #local #nextgen

Seattle isn’t doing enough for Gaza. It’s time to divest from Boeing’s war profits. Support our Palestinian neighbors. Support candidates who stand for justice. To every candidate: speak up. Silence is violence. 🍉💙 #FreePalestine #DivestFromBoeing #seattlemayor #armstrongformayor

Bruce Harrell breaks promises and protects business as usual. Seattle deserves better. It’s time for a mayor who puts people over profit. Ballots are out—vote now! #SeattleMayor #ArmstrongForMayor #FYP #Homelessness #LGBTQIA #PeopleOverProfit #NextGeneration

Why the hell doesn’t Seattle have a 24/7 light rail? In a city with fewer and fewer parking options- this is how can we help our hospitality, night shift workers, and nightlife enjoyers get home safely. Expand the Light Rail and keep it running past 1 am! #Seattle #transit #fyp #lightrail #1line

It’s clear to me that for the status quo to change we need a next generation of leadership to step up. In every conversation we are building a coalition of courage to make that change, and I hope you will join us!! #Seattle #Mayor #2025 #Elections @runforsomething.net

What is happening in Los Angeles is not the values of this country. Unfortunately I think this is just the beginning of seeing Trump militarize blue cities and we need leaders standing up for our communities right now. As Mayor of Seattle, I will fight for our right to protest.

On the 12th anniversary of me coming out, it was an honor to be with Seattle Pride and community as a finalist for the new Ackerman Award for Service in the Queer community. It’s these things that make life worth living when you can hold chosen family close and just be. #seattle #pride2025

Harvey showed us that visibility is a political act. Nina taught us that an artist’s duty is to reflect the times. Toni challenged us to tell our own stories. Bernie showed us what consistency looks like. And AOC proved that you can shake up power with authenticity and heart.
