Okay, my circadian rhythm is pretty much fucked up now, so… good morning! 🌞🫠
Apparently my internal clock has resigned, packed a tiny suitcase, and moved to another time zone without telling me.
Also, I noticed there are still Pride marches happening around the country this weekend, so I suppose I’ll just have to rail myself there. 🚂🏳️🌈
Because apparently my love language is public transport and queer liberation. 💕✨

I just wanted to share my moment of joy.
I am sitting at Legendarium, a trans owned bookstore and coffee shop and gaming center here in the SL,UT. Drinking a spiced mocha, hot, as the sun beats down on my skin in the 96° August afternoon. I had a wonderful night of intense connection with someone I love, followed by a morning spent in bed with him, talking and feeling close.
Tonight, I intend to connect more deeply to myself at a workshop held by Tantra Utah, and open myself to a holistic connection to those around me.
As I write my plans out for my upcoming adventure to Black Rock City, and think about bringing my community's intentions with me on my journey.
I am so thrilled to be me, here, now, in this body, on this Earth, open to all of the wonder and abundance that surrounds me. 🙏🪄🦄
