Oh hi!

In the last few days, I've had in influx of new followers. So here, have a photo of me from 12 years ago that showcases a lot of my interests in one photo:

1) Soccer
2) Music
3) Acting

I did this for a potential soccer acting job which I did not book because I had no idea what I was doing

A photo of me from 12 years ago, combining most of my interests in one shot. I'm on my friend's deck. He's set up a white backdrop using two tripods. The backdrop doesn't cover the entire background, so you can see a bit of his house. I'm wearing white sambas, jeans, and a green T shirt that says 'Quietdrive' on it. I'm kneeling in front of the white backdrop, with one knee up, holding a soccer ball on it, as if I was posing for team photos from my youth

Hey, if you're thinking about subscribing to my new efforts at Ghost, this is the week I need you to do it.

The doors are open and the Ghost era is beginning. If you were reluctant because of Substack, please show me I made the right choice by moving.

Help a disabled trans couple escape Alabama to a safer state!

Living in Alabama, as a trans couple is growing progressively more dangerous.

Our health is being actively damaged living in this house.

Please share, and if you're able, donate! Anything helps, even a dollar.

Kaidee wearing a trans flag makeup look as well as blue, white, and pink headbands and silver hoop earrings. She is also wearing a blue v-neck top.

She's so fucking cute that you should really help her move to a safer state. You know you want to.

Hard to believe this was a quarter-century ago...

... FIVE YEARS?! ARE YOU KIDDING? Every year feels like an eternity. This year alone has been like six hundred months and it's not even done yet.

i mean, if people are going to insist on continuing to do the political equivalent of taking their dicks out in a restaurant i guess there is not much we can do. but for the rest of us, aka polite society, voting republican should be treated like taking your dick out in a restaurant

California just banned employers from forcing workers to pay a debt, fee, or penalty to leave their job.

Bosses have increasingly been trapping workers with debts incurred in training and other exploitative fees.

Now that's illegal in the nation's biggest state.

Nunavut, the only Indigenous led province, is starving.

because of the Canadian governments neglect.

Please buy a copy or donate to these organizations to help fight hunger in the far North.

Please read this to understand how dire the situation is in Nunavut: www.aptnnews.ca/featured/foo...

I made print copies of my book a fundraiser to raise awareness of food sovereignty/security issues in the North, but the PDF is free if you want to download + donate directly to QCFC + other orgs.
