Somedays I really wish we didn’t give flowers to folks doing the bare minimum because they’re popular or “pretty” or “the norm” while others have to reinvent the wheel to get mild applause.

It’s so exhausting.

But believe me - some of us do notice your hard work and will hype you up. Keep going.

Last night I went on a quick trip to Seattle for the final night of The Emerald City Kings Ball - I laughed, I cried, and enjoyed some political catharsis. I also got to see King Molasses live and watch my bestie Sid Seedy make everyone cry in his final performance as Duke.

It was a healing night.

Did I hunt down all the Claudia art and cosplay I could find on IG and share it to stories?

Yes…someone’s gotta do it. #iwtv fandom let me down. 🥲
