Pride Month is over but here's my dedicated mini to my trans folks. It was inspired by
@CerberusXt
's work. It's my first time to use lighter colors - had a hard time but it was a lot of fun. Now to finish the rest of the squad.
@eisenharten
and I have been planning to be furdaddies for quite some time. We finally decided to get a beagle last week. Say hi to Fern. She likes treats and sleeps most of the time when not zoomin or chewin. Thanks
@rieljosef
for helping us make sense of this chaos gremlin :3

Hala sila sa mga religious imagery. Akala nila uniquely Catholic yun. Don't get me started with halos and rosaries. HAHAHA! As an altar boy meself, I think they probably have no idea what a tabernacle is.
Ang weird lang ng expectation na gold-star management from a group of 20+ volunteers sa BBB. Some people clearly haven't experienced volunteer work. This is me as an observer nung last event. Yep, that was a logistics nightmare. But I dont know... be kind to your volunteers(?)
The thing is... you don't have to be friends with every circle and every one all the time. It's a lesson I probably learned from every non-gay related circles I've been with. Happy to pass by and make friends. Keeping in touch with nice people. Lucky enough sa mga constant.
We keep forgetting the dates but it doesn't matter much if we get to spend more time with each other. Wubb you always and wottss :3
PS. I'm the weird boi. Thanks for always being at my side through thick and thin.
Last deck I'm getting for myself. It's closer to Rider Waite Smith than any other. And I recently got into Over the Garden Wall. That show is gold. Also, I am Wirt. Thanks
@KingLlanza
for letting me get this one.
Natawa ako sa mga comments at quote retweets, bakit daw ginagawang political yung pride march. Gurl, the first brick thrown (allegedly) at Stonewall was political. It's just people who liked her - who knows she was an ally - who were happy to remember her.
Just a Techmarine and a Librarian left and then my chapter will be "fully" staffed. Hahaha!
Tuloy ko na successor chapter build ko?
Or should I go Ultramarine?
Or Dark Angels, oh no...
I'm not a club/party person. Sasama lang pag niyaya. And that only started in my late 20s. So if you saw me dancing weirdly sa Taiwan on the side guarding my friends' bags or just standing sa cocktail table with my drink nung BBB, that's the most party I can do. Hahaha!
A reminder to religious ppl that oppression isn't an event (e.g. ama namin remix) but a system (e.g. marriage, sogie bill)
You can be offended, that's your right. But don't pretend that a drag queen's performance had any material impact on your ability to practice your religion.
Natawa ako sa cis-het na couple na naki-share kanina ng table na inupuan ko sa Greenfield (Mayflower side). Guy went on and on saying "I don't have anything against transgenders but...". Can't help raising my eyebrow and giving him a side-eye.
Medyo cliché, nung 27 ako I just said to myself "F*ck it. I'm the master of my own fate.", that's when things got better. Some quote from Sam Harris (haven't read the book nor understood in full) but it caught my eye. "You're not lost in the storm. You are the storm (paraphrased)
Grew out of it. May priorities mga tao - even your closest friends. May mga situations din na limited ang resources nila kaya okay lang yan kahit di sila mag-invite. If it's an issue of growing apart, okay lang din yan. Friends come and go. World's not ending yet.
Do you still get offended kapag di ka na-invite sa wedding/bday/any celeb ng friend mo, kasi akala mo the intensity ng friendship niyo is on the same level? Ako kasi hindi na. I made peace w/ myself na hindi naman nila kasalanan kung hindi kami parehas ng tingin sa fship namin.
Medyo a-hole move for an AF trainer to remove my weights while it's on a rack, 'no? Bwisit, nag-CR lang ako - nag-iba na setup. Tapos ako pa tinaasan ng boses when I told them I'm still not done.
I enjoyed Shang Chi and Eternals. They're slightly different and I like the change of pace/tone or whatever it is the makers did. Not every movie should look like the Endgame for me.
There was a guy who complimented my shirt and told me about Keith Harring. I just remembered now that it was a gift. I thought I bought it because it was on sale and it was cute.
Day 2 of losing my gut and making myself stronger again - so I can enjoy some of my hobbies that require physical strength. Nope, I'm not gonna fill up your timeline with pics of my half-naked body. But I'm not sorry for posting some of them.
Spent enough time with communities (like church) to learn not to idealize them groups. You will always disappoint yourself looking for love, or maybe perfection, from flawed humans.
People just want to set you up for failure - looking for tiniest/biggest flaws in you and ready to pounce as soon as you slip. Well, if it's any comfort to you, I would have ended myself roughly fifteen years ago. And it still lurks behind me.
