Love Yourself, You Crazy Bitch
Transition is hard. Thankfully I have the Privilege of being surrounded by people who love me today, who love ON me and who pick me up when I’m falling apart. Thank you Skylar, Haley, Ryan, and @MourningPeoplePodcast. I love you all so much.

FIFTY THOUSAND VIEWS….What the Actual…?
Thank you to all the weird ones, the freaks, the out of control strange ones who don’t know where they are going but are certain they are going somewhere, you did this.

“Like a Revolving Door of I Already Did That…” Life With Psychosis is…Interesting
Dear Audience, there’s a lot I DO NOT answer in this essay. Not because I don’t notice the holes, but because I don’t yet know how to fill them. Healing is new to me, and so I ask you give me your patience as I find the words that tell the tale.

Twenty Years Ago…
Twenty years ago, this was me. The difference between her then and me today is that she didn’t know how beautiful she was. She didn’t know how smart, talented, wise, courageous, resilient, and full of life she was. She was surrounded by people who dimmed her light, set her on fire, and threw her to…

What’s Love Got to Do With It? Thoughts on Abuse, Trauma, and Relationships
I’ve had big parties, little parties and shit parties, but turning 43 was absolutely perfect. I hung out with all my best friends and favorite people, I got a brand new (VERY MUCH NOT PINK LIKE A FLAMINGO) bong, and honestly? I just finally felt like “this is my year.” Things are really looking up…

Believe Survivors You Cuck!
Save. Start a side hustle, knitting, sewing, laundry, whatever it might be, if you’re already working, start saving for escape time.

“Collective Unknowing”: Banksy Will Remain Anonymous

So Much So Fast
So mom got sick this year. Badly, and I had to step up and go back to work. I don’t and did not mind; it’s been on my mind for years, I just didn’t know where in the world I fit, or where to start looking. At the church, I was pretty high up, but…

This Is Why My Stuff is Free
So I went over to my old haunt on Medium.com to see if there were any messages I needed to immediately respond to. There was not, but there was an article that said that websites were dead – all because the author didn’t get the traction he thought he’d get, right off the bat. Here’s…
