Did You Get A Love Letter? Good, Great, Wonderful, I Was Hoping You’d Find Me…
Every year at Pride events, and exclusively at Pride, I hand out little cards with a picture representing this website, and myself, and a little note on the back. Each note is handwritten and designed to say “I see you” in a variety of ways. I started writing the letters nine years ago, and I…

Everyone Needs To Look In The Mirror
Whether you want to or not, I think I need to return to doing mirror work. Not just to make myself feel good about myself, that’s well I think that’s step one. There are all kinds of things you can use mirror work for, one of them is self reflection. Looking inward is difficult because…

I Know Who I Am Today
But I won’t be able to say the same thing tomorrow. One of the things that I’ve never talked about, is the brain damage I have from both being beaten in the head, and the rest of the physical trauma that comes from being abused. Right now my doctor is focused on my iron issues,…

Here We Fucking Go…Again
First off, if you’re out there expecting Anonymous to rise their multi-facet face again and take over the planet through epic legionary hacks that change the world…take a breath. It’s not going to happen. They did their part and now they are resting, leave them be. Secondly, I distinctly remember the first time the United…

They Would Have Murdered Me…In #Hollywood
Hi Friends, Did you know that “No” is a full sentence? No. I did, but I forgot that, and I’ve been utilizing the word no for a minute now. The reason I say this is because as I said yesterday, I said no eight years ago, to a bunch of shit, that would have completely…

Before You Give Up, Read This
So I took this photo two years ago, on May 16th, 2023. I was unhoused, living in a hotel in Surrey, British Columbia. This was the prettiest spot I could find. I wanted to take a photo of myself, grounding myself. I wanted to remember that moment because I knew that things were going to…

Mourning People…That’s Me
I think I’ve been in mourning for longer than I realized. It wasn’t until my good friend started a podcast called Mourning People that I realized I am in mourning. I am grieving so much. The life that I thought I would have at this stage is definitely one of the things I am mourning.…

Transforming Trauma into Triumph: My Life’s New Chapter
No, You Didn’t Choose Where You Ended Up, But Gather Your Supplies and Move Accordingly – DJH I mean, I didn’t “Choose” this path. I ended up unhoused because we missed paying rent by one fucking day, and “Failed” into a beautiful location with people I love and care about, who are in their ways,…

My Five Year Old Black Little Girl Self Would Be HELLA Proud Today To Call Me Hers…
By the time I was five, I’d already been raped once, and molested once. A priest, and the baby-sitters boyfriend. Not in that order. I was already tired, but I knew deep down that I had big dreams, and for a little girl to say “I better have an interesting life, if I am going…

I Demand A Free Palestine, Mark Carney I Hope You Hear Me
Dear Mark Carney, My name is Devon J Hall, and I am a survivor of over thirty years of childhood sex trafficking. I know what it means to be stripped of autonomy, silenced, and made to feel powerless. I know what it is to be taken from your family, to be told you don’t belong…

“I’m All In…” But Should You Be?
Let me talk to my over stiumlated, super traumatized, over healing, girls right now. Let me talk to the girls who are in their “Glow up and Heal” era, let me talk to the ladies who are perfectly fine being single, but are trying to understand what that looks like so they can still have…
