Today has been a day. I hope the rest of this week is better. I just feel defeated.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

What movie would you consider "perfect"?

Honestly any other choice would be... inconceivable!

The movie poster for the Princess Bride. Several characters flanking an image of two men sword fighting.

If letting go of a children's wizard book or a chuck e cheese jumpscare sim is too much of an ask to stop bankrolling the persecution of queer people, you are not an ally. Full stop. This is especially true if you are a queer person yourself.

I wrote a 13 page final paper on literary themes for one of my college courses as an all-nighter with only minutes to spare before finishing. The teacher enjoyed my perspective and writing style enough that he used that paper as a resource to show future students how to express their ideas. Fuck AI.

I wrote the remaining 20 pages of a 30 page paper on historically comparative drought values the night before it was due AND last minute studied for the 3 finals I had over the course of the next 2 days of which I stayed awake for on a jug filled with NOS energy drinks and coffee grounds.

Fuck AI.

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

The 24th and 25th will be the last big stream push and I am working to line up some fun collaborations to round things out. While I can cover costs on credit, this donothon is to ensure that I don't take on a bunch of debt over this. I'll keep y'all posted with the bells and whistles and details. 🚚

My goal is to raise $4500 USD, as I will need to replace some snake enclosures, get a moving truck, boxes, and cover fuel expenses. The move itself is all next week and there is a chance my streams for the 18th and 19th could be put on hold if I am running behind as the deadline to leave approaches.

Hey y'all. As many of you may know my landlord decided they wanted to sell and do I gotta move. I'll be starting up the Donothon for the move this weekend, posting up goals and incentives soon. The donothon will last three weekends of streams, starting on Satutday and rolling until before Halloween.

Wild to me that the people falling over themselves to criticize the Superbowl for having a Puerto Rican headliner don't have any idea that Puerto Ricans are American citizens and that Puerto Rico is a US colony with no congressional representation. More people letting us know they failed civics.

I think when a copyright holder files a false claim they should be required to pay a fee to the person they claimed against

it would be great to see them actually take the time to think about it rather than just filing it and getting zero repercussions if it's found to not be legitimate

Gotta firm up the ice cream in the freezer so she'll be scoop-worthy soon.

Dang, I thought it was to have a starship crew or a ska band at the ready.
