Have y’all ever met someone who just weighs the room down? It’s such a strange feeling, like my whole body reacts before my mind catches up. The arrogance of some people doesn't deserve my peace of mind, nor my presence. It throws me off balance. I step back, breathe and choose balance. I’ve been intentionally learning it. Feelings I just need to put out of my system {nº 1}.

Just as important it is to have friends that uplift you I also think it’s important to have friends that remind you that you really aren’t the main character. Some people will live much more lavish lives, much crazier lives, and much more interesting lives than you in general, and i think it’s important to keep these people close because yeah you can draw inspiration from them but they also keep you grounded in a way that can’t exist when you think you’re the main character. Food for thought :3

Yeah I watched the first two episodes of Heated Rivalry and at one point I thought about turning it off. Not because I thought it was bad or anything, but because I felt like I was intruding and wanted to give them some privacy. Cause like DAMN 😂

Reminder: You get to. You get to wake up, you get to choose your outfit, you get to live your life. You get to let go of your limitations and become who you want to be.

To any LGBTQ+ person on Thanksgiving: Know that you are loved and you are seen and you are accepted. You don’t need to apologize for being yourself. You deserve to eat all the food you want, and laugh as loud as you want. Because you matter. You belong here. And you are perfect just the way you are.

Style isn’t decoration for me — it’s language. I dress to say what I don’t feel like explaining. Clothing is a way to build identity, not to chase approval. I’m drawn to pieces that feel like protection: jewelry that looks like a weapon, silhouettes with structure, textures that carry story. Soft and sharp at the same time. Romantic and brutal. Fashion is supposed to express who you are before you speak. Roland Barthes called clothing a system of meaning, and I believe that. Style is how you choose to be understood without performing. I’m not trying to impress. I’m trying to be honest. So tell me: Do you dress to express yourself, or to fit in?

I went to MotherDisco by myself tonight, here are my Opinions… 1. “Sometimes being a gay Black man in a space like this feels like stepping into a room where you’re both the main character and the mystery guest.” 2. “There’s nothing like that moment when another Black queer person spots you across the room and you share that silent nod like, ‘You good? We safe? You cute.’” 3.“The best part? When the right song comes on — the one only the Black girls, the Black gays, and your spirit understand — and suddenly you’re not at Mother Disco anymore. You’re in a church. Your church.” 4.“Being Black and gay in a club is always a balance between: Do I want attention tonight or do I want peace tonight? Because I can’t have both.”

This year, I reached my goal of reading 17 books - which I’m very proud of 🥳 I’m going to periodically post some of the books I read this year, but in the meantime: I would love if anyone and everyone could comment their favorite book or a book that really moved them! If it’s LGBTQIA+, then that’s even better!

Soon before leaving a Saturday rave, I talked to 2 dudes who may or may not have been literal n@zis and it made me so fucking uncomfortable (I mean duh) Idk I still think about it. Spending lots of time with comforting and supporting people, sometimes makes me forget there are people like…those, and that my parents’ fears of me being assaulted for being “visibly gay” aren’t unwarranted

Don’t you just love it when the couple at the next table thinks you can’t understand a word they’re saying? The guy was talking absolute shit about me in their language, blissfully unaware I speak it fluently. Then he starts vaping, and the smoke blows right into my face. Cute. I finish my meal, pay the bill, get up to leave, and finally turn to them. “Thanks for the kind words,* BEEP *,” I say to him. Then to his wife: “Congrats on your choice of man, Madam.” His eyes go wide. She looks like she wants to disappear into the floor. 10/10 Pure Satisfaction

I want the kind of love where my too much is just right, where I don’t have to search for the calm or scream for affection . Where, even in our silence, I feel protected.. And even in his absence, I feel seen and cared for. He won’t treat my dreams like idle chatter or as if they lack any importance or realism. He won’t let his ego lead him and when I stray from my center, he’ll direct me back to it.

Historical Winter Fun Fact! chimanies are suposed to be on the outside of a house Because of chimany fires. chimany catches fire, what you Were suposed to do is, throw chains around it, hook those up to horse/trucks and pull the burning chimany away from your home. it falls and burns in the yard while most of your home stays intact. just patch the hole for the night and rebuild the chimany in the morning.

There’s a guy who mentions wanting to take me on a date, so I gave him my availability, told him give me a day/time/place and there’s been minimal follow through on each occasion. With me, you only get about two chances of words not lining up with actions before I become disinterested. After his second lack of follow through, I told him I’m no longer interested. He deflected by saying “You’re asking for too much”. Guess who just DM’d me and won’t be getting a reply? There’s a past version of myself that would’ve spiraled, not spoken up about the thing that bothered me and sat in discomfort with hopes that a different result would come. I’m happy to be in a place where I speak up for myself ✨

When I was a kid my parents said the living room was booby trapped every Christmas so my sister and I would stay in bed until it was disarmed and to this day they refuse to say they just made it up so they could sleep in. I am 31 years old and they still are sticking to the bit that they had a series of traps that would go off and harm us if we tried to look at our gifts too early in the morning…
