Pride Month
My Journey to Peace
My Excursion to Harmony: Conquering Forlornness and Embracing Confinement The quiet used to be a stunning thunder. It reverberated in the vacant spaces of my loft, a consistent sign of the isolation that stuck to me like a subsequent skin. Depression wasn't simply an inclination; it was a presence, a significant burden on my chest that gagged the delight out of life.

Sunsetting Pride 2024. Top Story - July 2024.
Happy Pride! As Pride Month 2024 begins to sunset, I want to congratulate every individual who has become brave enough to take control of their life and live as their authentic, beautiful self. This is a month when it highlights those accomplishments. From acceptance within families and friends to acknowledgement in the political arena. Starting with Stonewall (and events prior) leading to the Supreme court ruling for same-sex marriages. We are here, we are queer, and we should never live in fear.

A Letter to the Baby Queers
To All Whom It May Concern (even if you don't know it yet), I must begin with my deepest apologies. I'm sorry that for all our struggles and gains over the past decades, true acceptance still seems so far away. Gay marriage is legal, but disabled Queers can't take advantage of that without losing the benefits that keep them alive. Pronouns and Gender-Affirming care is becoming more common, but trans-athletes experience pushback and no politicians seem willing to look for a third option.
