I am talking to a #gay #FBI agent. Not quite a unicorn fart, but close. You don't see very many #GLBT agents out there. They're out there, they are, just like cops. But he says a lot of people are closeted because of this macho culture they have, that's even worse under #Trump . He's […]
Some dudes are so full of themselves. On Scruff, I have a picture of me and my #cat because he's my best-friend, right? Some dude is like "if you want to hookup with me, then you have to loose the cat" oh. Well then, we won't be hooking up then. "😮 I'm worth it" bro, my cat is a psychiatric […]
There are #gay MAGAtwats? In what twilight zone dimension? How does that work exactly? My mother once said "I didn't raise a liberal" WHAT?! I'M GAY!! No. No you did not. I had to figure that all out myself. But that isnt voting against your own self interest. That's letting it first fuck you! […]
Guy on Scruff "What you doing?" Me: "Waiting for the melatonin gummies to kick in" "oh" "and the 2 Benedryl, and the Trazodone. So I'm waiting for someone to bore me to sleep, and you look like that person! What you doing?" Seriously. People in polite society start conversations with "hello! How […]
Some guy on Scruff - "are you looking for Daddy?" Yes. I need to know where to send the hitman. The only daddy issue I have is "Murder on my Mind" by Kordell plays when someone mentions his name. Very much not looking for a daddy #glbt
I'm not a fan of children being bullied or harassed, but these TPUSA (Ta-Pooosa) groups are tantamount to being Hitler's Youth, especially in areas where #GLBT clubs are being denied, it makes it more fascist. #news #tpusa […]

Abstract portrait of a male face rendered in bold, flat colour blocks with strong black outlines. The composition is divided vertically and horizontally into geometric sections with contrasting background colours including yellow, teal, grey, and green. The face features simplified, asymmetrical elements: two differently styled eyes (one orange, one blue-tinted), a prominent grey-green nose, and red lips. The figure wears what appears to be a red and blue collared shirt or jacket. The style evokes Cubist influences with its fragmented planes and simultaneous multiple perspectives of the subject.

If you message me with "hey sexy", I will immediately block you. I don't like it. It does not make me feel special. It makes me feel trashy. Do I look like trash to you? No. I am not. I've been treated like I am by far too many people to let some rando on a dating app degrade me like that. Have […]
