Last Sunday I had the pleasure of taking a shift at the typewriter with Pride Poets for West Hollywood's Pride Arts Festival, and got to write some poems for queer strangers on the spot. I love getting to make someone's day by creating something special just for them 🥹

Oh the plot was ALL over the place — a colleague of mine described it as bad fan fiction. I posted a 10 minute review on my Instagram stories so people could know what happens without having to put in any effort or money

Was on a virtual training to recognize undercover ICE agents today and the language used sent chills down my spine — “Police terror.” “Occupying army.” “Kidnappings.” “Assassinate citizens.” Like… those words are correct. That is exactly what’s happening. Call violence by its ugly name.

Source for anyone who’s curious! www.beintheknow.org/understandin... I have friends living with HIV and have been grateful for the level of care they can receive in the modern era, but am extremely aware of how “post HIV” implies everyone can access & afford care for the condition

It’s true that we’re approaching a cure for HIV and I’m so excited! The first confirmed case was also in 1959 in the DRC (not the 1980s in the US as is commonly believed) and it has taken more than 60 years for us to accomplish this much. COVID is 5 years old and we are extremely far from a cure 😷

I told my new speech therapist (treating me for a vocal injury) that I mask everywhere and she said “wow that must be hard for someone so young “… Like, no it isn’t? Wearing a mask isn’t actually a big deal? The world has been actively collapsing since the moment I gained sentience? What else is new

Saying “post COVID” is like saying “post HIV” — just because it’s not currently affecting you personally doesn’t mean it stopped destroying lives when the protective orders lifted. It is painful to be told one’s circumstances are a thing of the past; long COVID isn’t going away anytime soon.

LA residents - I assume we're all using the excellent Watch Duty app. If you pay the very reasonable fee to become a member you not only support the app but get some neat features like seeing where all the fire planes and choppers are. 👨‍🚒 ✈️ 🚁

Loving and being loved by an animal is so cool because even though you can never truly speak the same language you still find a way to understand and take care of one another — you literally communicate with love 🥹 🐾

Just because Bluesky says it won't use your data to train Generative AI, that doesn't mean what you post isn't public. What is public can be scraped, period. Always be aware of that.

I was never very good at Tweeter but hopefully a blank slate is just what the Internet ordered — I will be removing my content from the former bird app to protect my data and making an effort to show up more here! Be safe out there, artists 🫡

I’m a public librarian in a degenerating democracy, and I am pleading: Care about your library. Use it. See what programs and events it offers. And pay attention to its governing body. See who the trustees are. Consider running yourself. Libraries will need all the community support they can get. 📚

My partner recently asked me why people are so nice to me. (This is really a compliment to my amazing friends who are very nice to me) I told her that during the pandemic, I started loving people more loudly. Now they love me loudly back. Community care. 🥹 Don't wait for kindness. Love first.
