So, shit is happening in Florida’s education systems and I need to process. One of the things I need to write through is, what is probably an unknown move, Florida’s approving the requirement of Asian American history in Florida’s public education system.

Processing the Rainbow-phobia
A purely scattered ranting to just get it out of my system after another week of ridiculous politics and continual anti-LGBTQ+ shit. There’s rainbow-phobia going on in America y’all. There is a tidal wave of legislation being presented in state legislatures that is anti-LGBTQ+. Much of this is guised as “protecting the children” or “freedomContinue reading “Processing the Rainbow-phobia”
Before You Say Amen
Happy Pride Month! One tradition I have for Pride since coming out, is to watch primarily queer films, or works by queer directors and actors during the month.

In January, I was on boarding a new supervisor after IContinue reading “Reminiscing 2020”

Situations prior to COVID19 guided me to the decision to overcome my fear and distrust of counseling and it has actually been a saving grace for me during COVID19. One of the many things I am unpacking inContinue reading “Meandering Update”
Post-Election Ponderings & Reflections
It’s a week after Election Day and one of the closest races we’ve seen with the highest voter turn out on record. Biden has been declared as the projected winner and President-Elect. But in reflecting and thinking about the 2016 and the 2020 Presidential Election I have some ponderings and want to “put them downContinue reading “Post-Election Ponderings & Reflections”

Most, if not all, of America is paying attention to the confirmation hearing of the Honorable Amy Coney Barrett.
