Little Pridefests Everywhere and the waves of Pride organizing in Pittsburgh and Beyond. This is a draft of an essay I submmitted to multiple sites about the nature of a Pride festival. It was not accepted for publication because they publish Pride pieces in June. I think they missed my point. ~ Sue Once upon […]
I was recently contacted by a ‘content creator’ whose work I had shared. I used the attribution mark, I tagged the account, but she was not happy with me because I wasn’t interacting with the content – likes and comments – and she assumed I was just building up my own page without giving back. […]
I’ve been feeling down the past few days – overwhelmed by the media I consume, processing some difficult things in therapy this week, not eating well, not having much energy. Some of that is the weather of course. But June is historically a tough month for me with regard to bipolar depression. I have what’s […]
My third indie movie review with Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) characters (watching the fourth now) was a little disappointing.

“I may not always love you” As I move through the transformation of a divorce, I am humbled that I can look back at the past 20+ years and find those exquisite aching moments of happiness, joy, and beauty. Music is a language my spouse shared with me. She helped me level up from pop […]
I really wanted to participate in a No Kings rally today. But I was afraid. For 22 months, I’ve coped with the traumas of my interactions with police during and following the fraudulent involuntary civil commitment authorized by Allegheny County OBH on Sunday, August 27, 2023. The police failed me that day and on ensuing […]
