Known for my Maverick Heart books (Killjoys meets Firefly only queer). 20+ year survivor of metastatic synovial sarcoma (mortality rate 90-95% at the time so all this is dessert) Leg disabled. And I take pictures, mostly B&W, mostly street, but lately I want to branch out and shoot ALL THE THINGS

The outdoor streetcar and bus platform. Just left of centre we see a man walking away from the camera. Beyond him, is a sign announcing the next scheduled streetcars. There is a small group of TTC employees standing under the roof over the platform, under the curved columns. In the background, we can see other passengers moving in all directions.

I love Noir. Despite the homophobia and misogyny, there are lines like this: "Such a nice escort, Mr Cobb. So attentive. You should see him sober. I should see him sober. Somebody should see him sober. I mean, just for the record. So it could become part of history.... (1)

The main hall of the station, looking west toward the massive fanlight window that illuminates the space. There are shimmers of light reflecting on the stone floor. There is an information kiosk on the floor, an analog clock on its roof. Around the edges of the space are seats with waiting passengers. In the lower right, one man walks toward the camera in the middle distance, looking down at his phone.

Morale plummeting among ICE agents over long hours, quotas and public hatred: reports
While immigration officers support the Trump administration’s goal of deporting undocumented migrants, many of them have grown ‘disillusioned’ with leadership’s tactics, according to reports

When they were talking about how cold Toronto was going to be on Friday, it reminded of this song and how much I love it. And Bruce Cockburn in general.

A friend of 45 years seems to have cut me off. Unfriended me on FB ages ago. Stopped responding to emails. One that I used to be incredibly close to. And they're super chummy with my ex now.

The feelings I'm having, they are big.

Night. At left, a woman walking a dog walks away from the camera, in sharp focus. At right, slightly blurred by motion, a bus drives up the street in the opposite direction, toward Broadview Station. Its interior and exterior lights glow in the darkness.

Watching the recording of Merrily We Rolling Along. Daniel Radcliffe, Lindsay Mendez, and Jonathan Groff are magic together. It's wild to think the show was such a failure initially. I should dig up that documentary and watch it again.

Finally watching Knives Out: Wake Up Dead Man. I will watch these movies as long as Rian Johnson wants to make them. They're a delight.

Well, I'm pretty much always shameless. And I'm known for my shamelessly queer space opera novels, mostly the books in my Maverick Heart series. Think Killjoys meets Firefly, only queer! Or Queers..... In..... Spaaaaaaaace!

On the subway. In the lower right corner of the image, we see a close up of a young woman’s face looking toward the right edge of the frame. She has her phone held up to her ear, listening to something intently. In the upper left of the image is the window in one of the subway doors. Through them we see a man leaning against the wall of the platform, headphones on, peering down at his phone. He is partially obscured by the safety signage on the glass.

Looking in through the open doors of a subway car from the platform, we see passengers waiting for the train to depart. A man standing looking down at his phone. Two men of different ages sitting side by side, looking straight a head, hands folded in their laps. Other passengers partially hidden by the structure of the train, their heads looking down. Through the window behind them, we see the opposite platform, and the word “Dundas” printed on the wall.

From Disco Witches of Fire Island by Blair Fell.
"Life is like the best night of dancing- far too short. Do not waste time complaining about the music or how the drinks are not strong enough or how the pretty boy with red hair did not notice you. If you do, you'll miss your favorite song, and perhaps a more beautiful boy (with an adorable space between his front teeth), and suddenly the dance will be over without you ever dancing at all." -Disco Witch Manifesto #69

Y'all can have Heated Rivalry. My new obsession is Laid Bare on OutTV. It's the gay, bastard stepchild of And Then There Were None and Knives Out. With full frontals. It's so much fun!

Three panels-- 1. Interviewer asks, "Ma'am, what is it that keeps you going?" 2. Young woman answers, "My desire to crush my enemies." 3. Young woman continues, "And my sense of wonder."

Heard from my friend. He's in the hospital with some cardiac and fluid in the lungs issues similar to what he had last year, but much less severe, which is a good thing. But please, if you have some good thoughts and healing mojo you can spare, I'd appreciate it.

Two riders wait at the traffic light. At right is a food courier on his moped, square carrier bag over the rear wheel. At left is a cyclist, leaning away in the other direction from the courier.

"Disco witches get older. Fear not. Keep boogying. The Great Goddess Mother has a DJ set just for you."

I'm quite enjoying this. Even with the sting of remember those years of AIDS and loss in the late 80s. #WhatImReading #BookSky 💙📚

Minnesota's Republican House Speaker Lisa Demuth made a Facebook post critical of an anti-ICE protest at a church, and got ratioed by her own daughter in the comments www.facebook.com/LisaforMN/po...
Lisa Demuth: The behavior we saw over the weekend with protestors disrupting church services over suspicion of political differences, is absolutely unacceptable. Every leader should condemn this blatant attempt to stifle freedom of speech and religion. Peaceful protest is a part of the foundation of our country -- shutting down a house of worship because you disagree with one of its leaders is not. Shelisa Demuth: hey mom. let me remind you that your right to work and vote and marry the man you love as a Black woman was thanks to protests a lot like this one. and now look at the power you hold. it's only because of the dissent of those who came before you. injustice to anyone is injustice to everyone. you should be outraged. it's not supposed to be comfortable to challenge systems and make change. at least now you're paying attention.

Well, the cognitive decline has begun. Just found a no longer frozen bag of spinach in the cupboard beside my dishes. No memory of putting there. Must have been a few days ago. 🤪
