In 2013, I couldn’t work because of clerical errors from before I was born. I couldn’t afford to eat, so I sold my gear. I couldn’t gig for 12 years because of it…until now.

Santa pulled up. And I’m excited.

Meet Genevieve. My new bass.

I don’t know if I talked about this over here, but life update: I got ordained so I could perform marriage ceremonies! My heart was to be a resource to queer and low income people, but I am open to others as well!

Huzzah!

Dear Tough Guys on the Internet,

A quick question.

How is it you’re strong enough to support a family but feel threatened by a man wearing nail polish? See, actual strong men know who they are. You’re looking at one. Y’all are children with deep voices.

Have the day you deserve.

White People: Stop with the racial paranoia! We don’t care about skin color!

Repost from last year. I don’t share much of the music stuff I do over here, but this was a fun one. My take on a classic. All music, sampling, mixing and such by yours truly.

Which song should I tackle next year?

Hi.

Been a while. Promise I’ll be here a bit more. But I’m alive.

An unexpectedly wonderful feeling is being at a party with a bunch of people in their 20’s who are stunned that you’re 37.

God, I love a “Black don’t crack” moment.

If you’ve ever been educated by me and wonder why I post about supporting my work, this is what’s in my DM’s while you get that education.

Today is my birthday. I’m 37 today.

Taking some time away today to celebrate.

When we say this work is dangerous, we’re not kidding. And Black and Brown people are doing it largely alone.

Whether this is a bot or not is completely irrelevant. It is indicative of a very real sentiment. We shouldn’t have to deal with this at all.

Currently, there are more unemployed people than jobs in the United States. This person likely voted for that outcome.

Anywho, if you wanna support the work of this “unemployed libtard”, here’s how!
