Day 1! So excited!!! First show at 7:30 💋 #chicagotattooartsconvention ☘️ I don't wear green performing. It's bad luck. These jewels are pushing my limits but I'm hoping it limits people who find pinching or unsolicited touching funny.

Precious baby appreciation post. . I love these boys so much. They are from the same litter. Saved from the mean streets of #baltimore they came to #philly just as my beloved cat Leela was struggling with her #asthma They have traveled the whole country and previously lived in #palmsprings before settling into #tinyhouse living in #Sacramento . They bring me so much joy and just love each other so much. Here they are sharing a bed, even tho they are both super big boys. . #blackcatsofinstagram #tuxedocat #tuxedocatsofinstagram #blackcat #furbaby (at Sacramento, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpL7Sjdpzos/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Did a quick and sloppy swallow for #internationalswordswallowersday Just a reminder of why we celebrate: We honor the death of rosemary Puente and the contributions to many sciences that only sword swallowers can offer. There are very few of us out there doing this danger art (even when if feels like there too many! 🤣) Happy International Sword Swallowers Day! #dontdie ⚔️❤️ https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/147922753/rose-maria-puente https://singleuseendoscopy.com/how-ancient-sword-swallowers-shaped-modern-medicine-with-their-art (at Sacramento, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpGXWnsSNBn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

♥️ Two years ago today ♥️ I fall in love with #Sacramento more every day. . I've learned so much about myself in the past 3 years. Twice I have moved to brand new cities in California where I knew just one or even zero people. . In Palm Springs I met a forever friend and really got in touch with myself and experienced the desert where I was born in a solitary way that was lonely but perfect for finding myself. I created no art and only absorbed life and my reality - which was trying and painful, but rewarding. . In Sacramento, I experienced some of life's hardest tragedies including losing half my possessions in a robbery and other losses that could have broken me. All while working in vaccines and testing that people viewed as "political." My mental health was constantly tested. . The reason I know I belong here was because even thru all that- I never wanted to leave. Even when friends suggested I leave, I couldn't think of any place I'd rather go. I knew I couldn't stay in Palm Springs: job market, etc. I knew I had to leave LA and Rivco, but Sacramento? . Ugh, man I just love it here. I discover more beauty and fun places everyday. It's really nice to find a home. This is the longest I've lived somewhere since I left Philly in 2016. . So happy I made this jump and had Faith in myself. These journeys have been amazing. I'm so happy to be here, in every way.

The most #romantic thing you can do this #valentinesday is to drop a hot sexy donation to help the people of #türkiye . 💕Seni seviyorum I love you💕 . Over 35k dead and more missing. It's a race against time with little resources. The stories of bravery, courage and love have been bringing me to tears for days and I feel so helpless. I'd love to be able to raise some money and feel a little useful. So if you wanted to maybe do something nice for Valentine's Day, this is it. Literally, this is one of those situations where it's so bad ANYTHING HELPS. Shout out to @nasa for their satellite help with recovery efforts 🌍🚀 .
