The thing about two queer people who pass as straight being married is that every Pride month we are asked to explain the dynamics of our relationship to complete strangers.

I keep thinking about what I had to go through to find my voice as a writer, and in a way- I’m grateful for that terrible night because I wouldn’t be the poet I am without it. I hope the person who wanted to be my muse so badly she destroyed herself and our friendship has found the love she deserves

Realizing that I never posted about having work accepted to @ewhag.com’s Salon Sinister! It’s a queer literary magazine & I am so happy to have found a home for the poems I submitted. My work over the last few years has been my most personal yet, & to know that other people respect it means so much

I hope I look like I love pronouns and abortions. I want people to look at me and say, “damn, that lady loves autonomy.”

Motherhood really does cause amnesia because you really do forget how hard it is until you’re babysitting and said baby is grumpy and won’t stop crying or nap and now you’re doing everything one handed with a screaming time bomb in the other arm

I used to chronically share my feelings on Twitter. I don’t feel that need here. And maybe it’s because this app feels different. Or maybe it’s because of therapy. Or maybe it’s just because what we’re dealing with is just so hard and scary that talking about it so openly feels too vulnerable

On Thursday, May 15, 2025, a fire completely engulfed the estate burning it to the ground. The 10 fire departments present on the scene couldn’t contain it. Officials say the cause was electrical but we know better. The ancestors have been working overtime.

I cannot believe this made it to print. Or that a writer would attach their name to it. Knowing the content you’re reviewing or recommending to readers is something I inherently knew as a 16 year old girl, when I worked on my high school newspaper 15+ years ago.

One of my favorite tattoos comes from an artist who moved away and she’s moving back, but unfortunately she’s moving to a shop that I’m afraid to go to because my former best friend gets tattooed there (by an artist I introduced her to btw) 🙃

Yesterday was my former best friend’s birthday. I thought about reaching out and I probably would have if I had a way of contacting her. Instead I planted sunflowers in the yard where part of her love lies. I wrote so much that my hands cramped and my eyes stung with the tears I shed. I hope she-

TWO REMINDERS: 1. Mother's Day is Sunday. Do something nice for your mom (or for yourself if your mom isn't worth celebrating). 2. It's time for @nationalbailout.bsky.social's annual #FreeBlackMamas fundraiser to get Black women too poor to defend themselves out of jail and home with the kids.
