Of Lassie & Old(er) People Unabashadly Tooting While Waiting For Eye Surgery

Yeah, the town thought Edgar was a drag queen until that one day he and his sister finally showed up in the same room. Why “Lassie” is on a black and white TV news show where the commentator’s face is in color, but nothing else on the screen is in color is beyond me. Thank you, AI!

“:::POOF:::TOOT:::”–The Rear-end of a man in the waiting room

Goodness, I Hope This Place Has Good Ventilation

Last week, I took the day off to take Dan into outpatient surgery for his eyelids.

The doc said he needed it...

Adventures In Nightstand Drawer Searching

Not my actual nightstand. If it were, you would see embarrassingly fun things alongside the bubble bottles. This graphic is also AI-generated, which would explain the Bible-looking book needing to be charged and no cracks on the old phone’s screens.

“…if anyone has to go into my nightstand they have to sign a non-disclosure agreement and liability waiver first.”–The Other B*tch (me)

Oh The (RE)Discoveries…

Between Dan, our daughter, our nephew, and a myriad of friends, all of my charging cables ma...

Bringing In 2025

We had a lot of fun, safe fun, last night. Hope you had a wonderful New Year’s Eve as well. Here’s to us as we Thrive in 2025!

The Queen of Wholesale Adult Sex Toys & Meeting A Pack Of Bears And The Lesbian At The LGBTQ+ Mixer

Yes, all these diverse and incredibly happy to be on a boat in the middle of the ocean people with the right percentage of body fat and the.exact.same.smile were AI generated. #notcreepy yet #socreepy .

“You need to meet my boy. He wears a lot of Robert Graham, too.”–The Queen of Wholesale Adult Sex Toys

The Best Greeting Exchange I Have Ever Had…

I walked right up to this man and his husband and said with a smile but harsh vocal tone, “Now, listen! We are NOT going to both be wearing Robert Graha...

2024 Highlight Reel

This year has been incredible as you will see in this highlight reel. Also, this year we released my first book WHY: A Memoir!! Also it was my first time at a true “Hollywood” Party, WEHO Pride, and Beverly Hills. Plus, lots of fun visiting Cozumel, Roatan, Belize City, Costa Maya, Nassau, Puerta Plata, St. Thomas, and St. Maarten! Plus loved ones and chosen family, to new friends and instant connections.

Now, let me add a caveat: Apple didn’t release their AI tools until a couple of months ago,...

The Online Overlords Can Eat It: Taking Back Control Over Original Content Creation

Why reward those who actively make money off of new content creation while at the same time shadow banning innocent off-site links? …all the while letting hate flourish?

Nope. No More.

I have reported *many* posts to Meta platforms (Facebook, Instagram, and Threads) for being in violation of hate speech and graphic violence only to be told those posts are okay and not against their terms of service. The algorithmic overlords prioritize their desire for massive amounts of money by lett...

We Are The Sunshine... Not The Signpost

“We are the Sunshine”

When we let our true selves shine, we naturally bring joy and positivity to our community. But when we try to force others to follow our path, we may very well dim their light, or burn them out.

Keep Shining

I get slightly irritated watching my favorite influencers turn themselves into life coaches and eventually bore the snot out of me with the SAME messaging I heard from at least 30 other influencers.

Do I think these influencers should stop? Well… no, I don’t....

I can’t stand the saying “let’s agree to disagree.” I dislike it almost as much as “nothing tastes as good as being thin feels!”

But we aren’t talking about that second quote… … today. :)

I used to love this saying but now that I have gotten older it has proven to be ineffective at fostering relationship. The “let’s agree to disagree” is simply not true in most cases. Most of the time we simply disagree. In my o...
