I’ve been borderline obsessed with the NXVIM cult since I read Sarah Edmonton’s gripping memoir in 2019. A harrowing tale about a personal accountability group that was basically a front for one man’s sex cult, replete with a dozen’s deep harem and a MLM plan of sex trafficked women trafficking others. Most people who read […]
For as long as I can remember I’ve had two major reoccurring dreams; tidal waves and driving on vertical highways in the sky. Now the tidal waves are never quite that; more like if the ocean was 50 stories in the air and people were just swimming up there like it was normal. Those dreams […]
There’s not much to say in the face of the last few days. I think we are all feeling shell shocked, frightened, disappointed and mentally exhausted from having a small handful of people in Washington make decisions that effect everyone. With no regard for democracy, majority, decency or equality. The rampaging, raging right continue to […]
The first time I laid eyes on Redington Shores was 6/2000. I was moving to FL from NC with my friend Chelsea and her girlfriend Renee. We tentatively had our sights on Fort Myers Beach. But I wanted to stop for a night in Redington to see what the St. Pete area was like. We […]
Today of all days, it’s easy to be terrified. As a woman, as a human, as anyone who is compassionate, intelligent and aware. But I’d like to focus more on hope. Because without it we have nothing. There are thousands of artists, poets, musicians, and writers who’ve inspired me during my myriad trips around the […]
I don’t think many people who know me IRL would be used to me describing myself as “lucky”. Privileged, passionate, depressive, outspoken, opinionated-yes. I’m not sure if I ever really believed in the concept of luck. People who are born with advantage have opportunities. People who work really really hard (like every single “illegal” immigrant […]
This is to my friends who don’t yet get why the Depp/Heard trial is so important. I hope you will soon. I wasn’t going to say anything because I really don’t want to have this conversation with you-I’m afraid I know where it leads. But it turns out we may not be able to “agree to disagree” about […]
I don’t feel old enough to have lost three dogs in my lifetime; but here I am. Hailey went into surgery this morning and it was worst case scenario-riddled with cancer; everywhere. I think a part of me knew this would be the outcome; I just really, really, really hoped I was wrong. My first […]
It’s like a glitch in the fucking Matrix I swear. I adopted my first dog (as an adult) in 2009. She was a stray 1yr old white pit/pointer mix with brown spots the shelter had named Valentine due to the heart shaped spot on the top of her head. She had no idea how to […]
It was our last day in New Orleans. We were hung over, drinking white russians at noon and strolling the French Market like the starry eye’d 20 year olds we were. From Jackson Square to Decatur there were artists selling their wares, tarot readers, a carnival of chaos and commerce. I found a sketch I […]
