You guys want to hear a short but adorable story that happened right in front of me at the baggage claim in NYC yesterday? I wasn't part of it and there are bits I didn't catch but holy crap, I can't stop thinking about it.

The final minute of my chair dance duet. I’m labeling this as adult, because while no clothes come off, it is definitely for mature sensibilities.

When the weather is perfect, breezy and warm but not too warm, with cumulus clouds dotting the sky and the birds out—I saw a bald eagle and heard the geese—I miss Wisconsin and North Carolina like a best friend. I am a country mouse. I love the Twin Cities but I’m not fully myself here.

Tonight’s chair dance was possibly even hotter? At one point I heard an audience member gasp “oh my god.” Huge thanks to @beffgus.bsky.social showing up! With a friend! It means so much to have that support. Anyway, drop a line if you’re up. Otherwise I’m going to solve a logic puzzle.

Last time I'll pester everyone with this (until the next show) - come out to Fly Freak in Saint Paul tonight, 7:30, to see my chair dance duet plus seven aerial acts. One of those acts is two women doing an S&M act on aerial chains to Fleetwood Mac's "The Chain." Preposterously hot.

The whole thing is a real treat but this bit, especially the highlighted portion, put a huge smile on my face

Since joining the tech company in 2025, Gary has noticed that naming his employer prompts brutal reactions from prospective paramours. One woman, he says, called him the devil; another asked how he lives with himself. “Sometimes people would just straight up stop talking to me,” he says.

Recently, Gary’s buddies requested he not mention Palantir on their nights out together so as to not tank the whole group’s chances of getting laid. “I get nervous now. I don’t bring it up,” he says. (Gary, along with the other daters in this piece, have been given pseudonyms to protect against professional, if not romantic, repercussions.)

October is the month we celebrate Octubafest (many tuba players getting together to play tuba). It has been many years since I have played in Octubafest but I hope to again sone year soon. I’m glad I have so many cool hobbies but having to pick is like trying to pick a favorite Karamazov brother

Hello there. After 20 years, I’m still not very good at headstands from the ground. I need the support of a wall. But in preparing for this chair dance, I learned I can do them fine—with muscle control, poise, stamina—from a headstand stool or, alternatively, from a woman’s seated thighs.

That was an outstanding show. The chair dance duet Kimberly and I did was super extra flaming hot and if you live in the Twin Cities you should come see it tomorrow. I’m home now and eating tamales from the tamale lady. Say hi if you’re still up.

Weekly gratitude practice. What’s everyone grateful for? During this week when so many of us have been recalling sexual violence and other bad encounters, it is a balm to perform erotic dance in a supportive, joyful space this weekend with other women and femmes (albeit not in this costume).

No dates, no prospects, but the fashion must go on. If you’re in the Twin Cities, come see me perform chair dance tonight or Saturday night at Fly Freak Studio in Saint Paul. Ticket info in my pinned post. Choker by @weltschmerz.bsky.social

Me, a white lady, sitting in a big old straddle on a banquet chair. All-black clothes: Beret, body suit, shorts, fishnets. I’m looking directly into the camera over my sunglasses, which I am wearing indoors, which you can do when you have this much style.

Dress rehearsal was this evening. Holy smokes, these are some good acts. If you like watching hot people dance and fly through the air, you need to come to the Friday or Saturday show. I'm chair dancing in both.

Just a reminder that people don’t always realize they were raped in the immediate aftermath. It can take hours, days, months, and even years to realize you were raped, and it doesn’t make it any less true. There are many kinds of responses, including fawning and trying to appease your rapist

i am having trouble articulating this but a system that excuses gang rape as a youthful error on behalf of college men with ~ bright futures ~ does so because it is served by producing older men who are comfortable with, even enthusiastic about, torturing people at the system's behest

I’ve been a media witness to two federal executions. One was Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh. The other, a week later, was a drug kingpin named Juan Raul Garza. My conclusion after watching both men die: The death penalty should not exist. Period. It fixes nothing, and it erodes our souls.

I'm at the most boring stage of the copyedit, the last stage, where I scour the whole manuscript, plucking out all the proper nouns and unusual phrases to paste them into a style sheet (useful for other editors, the proofreader, and the indexer). I've got Elgar playing. This will take all day.

I will die mad that I got kicked out of my library job in 2022. One MLS and a 17 year career down the drain. However. I am grateful I left before AI got there. I would not have survived in an environment that expected me to use it. With colleagues and supervisors who thought it was okay.
