Hi. I am here. ⤵️

Kevenn pre-ordered me a Mafex Superboy for my birthday last year. He finally arrived yesterday after many delays. Nightwing's delighted.

I am also grateful to be living in this beautiful, vibrant, diverse city where there is no emergency other than the one being constructed by propaganda.

I'm so sorry. I hope you're physically ok.

I got to see a restoration of one of my favorite films at @reelingfilmfest.bsky.social last night. More beautiful, erotic, and enticing than ever. The world James Bidgood created is gay heaven and so inspiring. Hoping for a physical release soon.

For what it's worth, I feel safer, happier, and more whole in Chicago than I ever did in Cleveland.
