This made me giggle too much to not share.

But in all seriousness, y’all… stay safe out there.

And if you ever need additional safe s*x and emergency resources, let me know because I have connections with resources for you.

Some precious phone and tablet / iPad wallpapers that I found online yesterday. I’m not sure who the creator is of them, as they weren’t credited, but I wanted to share these here for anyone who might want to personally use them or share them along with loved ones. ☺️

If interested, you can reach out to Rock City Counseling or Intransitive for more information. What a wonderful, consistent offering! 🙌🏻🏳️‍⚧️ The support group has been offered for a hot minute now, and I’m so deeply appreciate of those behind the scenes that are making it happen.

I am thiiiiiiiiiis close to launching a weekly (or twice-monthly) series of Zoom yoga classes designed specifically for disabled and chronically ill folks.⁣
⁣
This isn't yoga where you're quietly suffering through Warrior II while the instructor says "just breathe through it." This is yoga where:⁣
⁣
🧘🏽 Every pose comes with options, not just for beginners vs. advanced, but for bodies that flare, fatigue, and change day to day.⁣
⁣
🛋️ Chair-based, bed-based, and floor-based versions are all just... versions. No hierarchy.⁣
⁣
💛 "Rest" is a legitimate modification, not a moral failure.⁣
⁣
🌀 Pacing accounts for brain fog, spoon theory, and the reality that showing up already took energy.⁣
⁣
🖥️ It's on Zoom, so you don't have to factor in travel, parking, or convincing your body to leave the house.⁣
⁣
You can attend with whatever your body needs, wherever you happen to be. I'll be modeling that myself — some days you'll find me leading from my chair at my desk (chair yoga is my most accessible option most days), other days from my three-inch-thick mat in the garage (extra cushioning, happy bones), and if the Arkansas heat cooperates, sometimes from underneath a gorgeous Cherry tree in my backyard. However you show up is the right way to show up.⁣
⁣
This is open to anyone, anywhere in the world. Wherever you're logging in from, you're welcome here.⁣
⁣
𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴: $15 – $22 per class, comparable to a regular studio drop-in rate — with sliding scale access available.⁣
⁣
𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 — and I want your input on this part:⁣
⁣
I'm thinking a mix of times to accommodate different bodies, energy levels, and time zones:⁣
⁣
👉🏻 A late-ish evening slot, around 6 p.m. CST.⁣
👉🏻 A mid-morning slot one day a week, maybe 9 or 10 a.m. CST.⁣
👉🏻 Possibly a weekend option, too.⁣
⁣
Tell me what actually works for you, please. Morning person or night owl? Weekday or weekend? Your feedback genuinely shapes the schedule — this only works if it fits into your life, not the other way around.⁣
⁣
More details (exact days, sign-up, format) coming very soon. Drop a comment or DM if you want to be first to know when registration opens. 🕉️

𝙊𝙣 𝙮𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙙𝙖𝙮'𝙨 𝙎𝘾𝙊𝙏𝙐𝙎 𝙧𝙪𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 — 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙞𝙩 𝙙𝙤𝙚𝙨𝙣'𝙩 𝙙𝙚𝙘𝙞𝙙𝙚.⁣
⁣
By now most of you have seen the news: the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in West Virginia v. B.P.J. and Little v. Hecox that states 𝘤𝘢𝘯 bar trans girls and women from girls' and women's school sports teams. If you're a trans person, a parent of a trans kid, or someone who loves a trans person, I want to say plainly and loudly: this ruling is a real loss, and if it's landed heavy, that reaction is valid and a healthy response. You're allowed to feel whatever you're feeling about it today.⁣
⁣
A few things worth knowing and sharing, because the headlines can make this feel bigger than it is legally:⁣
⁣
→ This ruling says states 𝘮𝘢𝘺 ban trans athletes from girls' and women's teams. It does not say they 𝘮𝘶𝘴𝘵. Schools, districts, and states that don't want to discriminate are not required to change course.⁣
⁣
→ It's narrow. It applies to sports eligibility specifically — it didn't resolve broader questions about trans rights, gender-affirming care, or equal protection more generally.⁣
⁣
→ It's not the end of the fight. Advocacy at the state and local level — where a lot of the real decisions now sit — still matters enormously.⁣
⁣
None of that erases what this ruling signals, or the exhaustion of watching another young person's right to simply play with her teammates get litigated in the highest court in the country. Both plaintiffs, Becky Pepper-Jackson and Lindsay Hecox, asked for nothing more than to compete alongside their peers. That's worth sitting with.⁣
⁣
𝙏𝙤 𝙢𝙮 𝙘𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨: if this news is sitting heavy, I'm here. You don't have to carry it alone, and you don't have to have language for it yet to reach out.⁣
⁣
𝙏𝙤 𝙛𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙤𝙬 𝙘𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙣𝙨: if you're looking for ways to plug into advocacy against legislation like this, either locally or through professional/community networks, please reach out to me directly. I'm happy to make connections.⁣
⁣
Protect trans kids.⁣
Always and forever.⁣

✨ 𝗔 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽 𝘂𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲, 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗺𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀.⁣
⁣
I've spent some time going through my own personal collection — pieces I've held, worked with, and loved — and I'm setting some of them free to find a new home with someone else. They're now listed in my shop, ready for whoever they're meant for next.⁣
⁣
A few of what's available:⁣
💜 Raw Purple Fluorite specimens⁣
💀 A hand-carved Green Fluorite skull⁣
🟣 Amethyst Towers⁣..and quite a bit more waiting to be discovered.⁣
⁣
𝘈 𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘤𝘬 𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘦: all graphic tee listings are temporarily disabled while my platform updates the hosting for those items. They'll be back, alongside some new additions, so stay tuned. 👕⁣
⁣
Every crystal ships via USPS Priority Mail, with insurance coverage included, because these pieces deserve to arrive safely and so do you.⁣
⁣
And if there's something specific you've been searching for that you don't see listed — tell me. I'm always happy to source it for you. 🔍⁣
⁣
Come see what's waiting.⁣

Juneteenth honors something that should’ve never had to be fought for in the first place: freedom. It’s a day to hold the resilience of the Black community, the people who pushed and refused to back down for equality, and the richness of what they have built — even in the face of having everything intentionally stacked against them.⁣
⁣
Freedom that was won deserves to be celebrated, and freedom that’s still being built deserves to be tended to. Juneteenth carries the weight of everyone who came before — the ones who survived what should have never happened, and the ones who kept pushing long after the news of freedom finally arrived. Their legacy isn’t something to just look back on. It’s something still being built on, one step at a time.⁣
⁣
Honoring this history means honoring the truth of it fully — the joy and the unfinished work, both at once. 𝙃𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙮 𝙅𝙪𝙣𝙚𝙩𝙚𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙝.

This is a wonderful offering that is happening soon with some dear friends and entrusted colleagues, Weird and Well Counseling, at Good Day Pottery & Art Studio located in Conway.

I will be there! Will you? (Seriously though, there's zero pressure; just wanted to share about a wonderful activity, with wonderful people.)

Less than two weeks until we get to create and regulate again, this time at Good Day Pottery & Art Studio!

We can’t wait to see you!
