I thought about posting this on Instagram, but then I remembered Meta can eat my whole butt. Plus I have my Patreon account, and I can write as much as I want. If we have to fight the Christian Nationalists, we may as well do it with panache. And I happen to have an idea…

On 2-26-2012 Trayvon Martin was gunned down by George Zimmermann in Florida as he was walking home from a convenience store because he "looked suspicious". Zimmerman was acquitted. On the day of the acquittal I walked around the lake in Zurich alone carrying this sign.

I have sold my last bottle of Rezin of Joy. Each bottle was $99 with 100% donated to The White Helmets, officially the Syria Civil Defence, a Syrian-led grassroots humanitarian organization working to save lives and uplift communities in areas most affected by conflict and disaster in Syria.

At my studio earlier today wrapping a customer’s order. The light inspired me to use my phone stand and record myself putting together their order. And it just so happened that I found the perfect song to accompany me! #perfumesky

Just scared the bejesus out of an older person who thought I was a café. I mean, maybe? But I wouldn’t recommend drinking my perfumes.

The power’s out and I have a cat in my lap. Seems like a good time to shop online for a Tarot deck.

The wind and rain are not messing around this week. We are without power! Time to churn the butter and dip the tallow candles…
