Remember when my friends had to cancel our roadtrip to Philly and I made an impulsive decision to go anyway and fly there on my own? I had never been there and had to drop a lot of cash to make it happen but something told me I should still go, even alone. I was going there to take a class and did NOT expect to meet a new crush or start a relationship or really expect to ever return to Philly again for anything. But then I met such a wonderful person who lives there! And we have talked on the phone for the past month and now they visited me this past weekend on their first ever trip to Ottawa. I showed them around town and introduced them to Hazel and Jesse and it was a truly lovely visit. I’ve been trying to be way more pragmatic and realistic and calm this time around, but there is no denying that this is amaaazing and I’m psyched as fuck. I can’t fight it. I’m giddy. Now what have I done?? I’m going to have to go back to Philly sometime again soon I guess. I truly did not see this coming. But you know me. I shoulda guessed maybe. I swear one day I will go on a trip by myself without falling in love. But really I can’t be trusted to take solo vacations cause I always get a crush real bad.

Fuck.

california

my life is series of canceled trips to california. i am not letting that happen again this time. it is going to finally happen for me. it’s ridiculous that i have never been there. i will get there while i am 30, and hug my beautiful gwen, and finally see chasingdunamis and go to the places that i look at every day in photos on my walls. i am doing it. i have been dreaming of it for too many years.

FUCK THIS DID NOT HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Update, I went at age 33.

a dude texted me “I don’t anticipate a future point at which I stop loving you. Jus saying.” and I don’t know how to feel.

I logged in to my Tumblr for the first time in years. It's full of stuff like this. I think I'll log out again.

I was worried that the cleaner might have lost her job over this, but apparently the company that employs her stood up for her and said she was just doing her job. 

Now I can comfortably lol. 

god bless you lady cause these white ppl out of hand

If modern art is supposed to challenge the viewer by posing the question, “What is art, really?”, it needs to be prepared for viewers to answer that question.

Art: what is art, really? Cleaning Lady: not this

I’ve said it before: if scattered trash is a legitimate art installation, then cleaning it up is legitimate performance art and she should also get thousands of dollars for her incisive commentary

He covered everything.

Watching everyone share Ivan Coyote's post about leaving women alone. Thousands of shares. On tumblr everyone is like "he covered everything!". Ok. Dope. Glad you will listen to the person you see in that picture. But if you won't listen to it from me, from femmes, women, feminized people, I doubt we have a feminist revolution on our hands here.

Who found this video of me & @chasingdunamis ???
