When Everything Goes to Pot – Loss and Lessons from 2 Years in Highsolation
Whew! Y’ALL! 2021 has been an intense year full of peaks and valleys. Just before Springtime I had to make the heartbreaking decision to put my senior dog, Titus, to sleep. Then in the same week I lost my day job. Most recently someone I considered one of my oldest friends switched up on me shortly after I came out to her, and I had to walk away from the relationship. I’m not saying any of this to victimize myself or to gain sympathy. Many people have been dealing with so much and I don’t want to sandbag y’all with my trauma. I just wanted to be more transparent about…

Navigating not just the pandemic but racism / white supremacy / state-sanctioned police violence, natural disasters, voter suppression and an attempted coup has left me too exhausted to do much (let alone keep up with this blog).

It’s holiday time and I’m feeling a bit festive (to be quite honest, I’m looking for any excuse to celebrate), so I need a little Christmas NOW. This year I’ll be…
