And now for a break from my regular programming, a of my dear Milky (daughter) and Salem (mama). The wacky positions I find these two in never get old! 😹

I've been sick more weeks than not this year so far, so I've been soaking up their healing purrs as much as possible 😻

...well,

🎇 - Truth be told, this year was kind of rough for me. Chronic fatigue has been kicking my butt, and witnessing the rise of fascism south of the border surely hasn't helped.

But there still have been some glimmers of joy and hope that got me through 2025:

✨️ Workshops, seminars, and demos galore (complete with giant inflatable Hitachi Magic Wand, for when size matters 😝)

✨️ A bucket list trip to London 🇬🇧

✨️ An exciting research study that's still in the works! 🤓

✨️ Plenty of shℹ️bari shenanigans at 🪢

✨️ Q***r kℹ️nky conference magic (otherwise known as !)

Looking back, it was still a tough year overall, but the highlights surely were gram-worthy! 🙃

Here's to a better 2026 for all of us 🎇

This Halloween, I have a scary-exciting announcement! 👻

Introducing .eros, a collective of three disabled k!nksters (myself included) creating jewelry and accessories inspired by qu33rness, s3xual!ty, and k!nk. Our handmade designs celebrate colourful self-expression with a playful wink to the er0t!c 😉

I’ve been quietly working on this project all month, and am thrilled to finally be sharing it with you all.
Our soft launch is happening TOMORROW (Saturday, Nov 1st, 2025) at ’s K!nky Qu33r Crafts Market. Drop by, say hello, and check out our wicked wares! 😈

Follow .eros right here on IG for more information and updates ✅

More highlights from my with my mom:

✨️ Badass chicks at the Moulin Rouge! 🎶 (We were in the 2nd row!!)

✨️ A daylong tour featuring a super fun cruise down the Thames. No London Eye rides for us, just a snapshot 🎡

✨️ Gawking at instruments of torture at the Tower of London, such as The Rack (definitely not the Risk Aware Consensual Kℹ️nk version of R.A.C.K., to be clear! 🙃)

✨️ Hadestown, Buckingham Palace (at least from the outside, near this Queen Victoria monument), Changing of the Guard 💂‍♂️ 💂‍♀️

✨️ More vacation pics of the uncurated variety 😂 can be found on my personal FB 📸

Did you know that London has an actual , and it's amazing? 🌮 Thoroughly entertaining and educational - and I'm still coveting that vu1va teaching pillow!

I convinced my mom to visit that particular museum with me (although the London trip was all her idea), and she nearly liked it more than I did 😂

We also enjoyed many of the usual tourist attractions, of course 🌉

More pics are forthcoming! 📸

Coming up this Thursday, July 24th at 🪢, I'm stoked to be teaching on Mindful 🇰in🇰:

What exactly is mindfulness, and how does it relate to 🇰in🇰 and 🅱️D$M play? The practice of bringing intentional awareness and nonjudgmental acceptance to the present moment can enrich the 🅱️D$M experience for everyone.

In this workshop, I'll outline the basics of mindfulness, geek out over scientific research on the interplay of mindfulness and 🇰in🇰, such as how 🅱️D$M-induced mindful states differ between tops and bottoms, explore how to bring mindful attention into the dungeon (or the bedroom!), and guide participants through some 🇰in🇰y mindfulness exercises.

Date and Time: July 24th, 6.30pm

Duration: ~2.5h

Fee: $35/person (low barrier options available at the door)

Prerequisites: Curiosity

Material to bring: Note taking materials

For individuals or pairs: Any constellation is welcome

Who is this for: Quee®️ and Friends

Sometimes my disability looks like this –

If you’re wondering what these pics have to do with disability, I gotchu! I have a couple dynamic disabilities - that is, the kinds that fluctuate from day to day.

So, whenever I engage in kℹ️nk, I check in with my body and negotiate accordingly. On a good day, I can bottom for heavy impact play and some pretty badass, strenuous ties. On a bad day, play is out of the question.

On this particular day, I wasn’t feeling 100%, but was willing to attempt a relatively comfortable suspension - an experiment which paid off. Sometimes the endorphins and endocannabinoids released during a scene actually help ease my chronic pain!*

*(Of course, proceed with caution as your mileage may vary. Or as said, “Kℹ️ nk can be therapeutic, but it’s not therapy” - and that goes for physical therapy as well.)

On this last day of , you may have felt conflicted about celebrating queerness while a fascist regime attacks the trans community and rolls back human rights for migrants, women, BIPOC individuals, and the LGBTQ+ community.

And with the attacks on Iran and the ongoing genocide in Gaza, I was feeling more hopeless than celebratory.

All of this hopelessness and overwhelm can make us feel frozen and helpless to fight back.

But looking back at Pride's roots shows us that it was always a protest against hate, led by trans women activists like Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera. 🧱

Let us take inspiration from their legacy, and move forward into with renewed motivation to effect change! 👊

Couldn't resist adding that corny song clip 🤣, cuz I've got two sizzling rope seminars coming up at .loving!
