A message of love for you:
Queer folks are divine
You deserve love, kindness, respect, and gentleness.
Your voice matters.
We have a responsibility to support those among us who are disenfranchised.
Drag is an art, a riot, and a political message. It is the act of being free.

If it's easier for you to take care of yourself because others ask you to, then I ask you to be kind to yourself today. Feed yourself, let yourself enjoy something small, give yourself a break, and REST!

I love you.

What an honor to celebrate Pride OUT and PROUD! 🌈✨

We read so many wonderful books, including a new favorite of mine: Jack Not Jackie. I’ve never seen a picture book capture the experience of growing up transmasculine quite like this one. It resonated deeply with me, and I hope it connected with others, too. 💙🤍🩷

I’m always available for storytime bookings through @dragstoryhourtriangle!

In the meantime: Happy Pride! (Because Pride is all year round. 🏳️‍🌈) Stay strong, stay gentle, take care of one another, and I’ll see y’all on stage again soon. 💖

I love getting paid to flirt with the audience. 😉💵😘

Huge thanks to @underground_presents for this special Pride opportunity, and to @jax.mongo for these incredible photos.

I've been learning more about sewing and had a blast making this tiger-stripe jumpsuit. I'm already working on a matching piece... stay tuned. 🐅✨ by @thesofakingofficial

Maybe there’s a secret that you’d like to say out loud! 🤫✨🤠

It was an honor performing with @greenvillepittcountypride and to be photographed by the lovely @jax.mongo. This song means a lot to me (by the lovely @adammacmusic ), and I enjoyed sharing its infectious, southern queer cowboy energy with all of you! 😉

Keep kicking, keep hootin’ and hollerin’, and I’ll see y’all real soon!

Huge thanks to @splusjane for capturing these incredible moments from my singing-in-drag debut!

Thank you to @greenvillepittcountypride for putting on a beautiful event and for giving me the opportunity to perform alongside such a talented cast of artists. Performing Wyn Starks’ Who I Am was an unforgettable experience, and hearing how deeply the song resonated with so many attendees made it even more special.

I loved every minute of it, and I’m excited for more singing performances to come. by @thesofakingofficial

Performing with @hope_for_teens13 Queer Prom was such a joy. 💚

I met four amazing performers, commiserated about not having spaces like this when we were in school, connected with so many wonderful queer teens, and even got to debut “Sofaba” to the world. ✨

I can only hope to someday repeat a show as meaningful as this one was. It’s an honor to serve the community in this way and to help create spaces where queer teens can fully and safely celebrate themselves.
