Sante Dor’s renovations!

Sante Dor Foundation sent along these lovely photos of the renovations done by Catio Guy! Thank you again for raising the funds for these sweet angels to play :)

2025’s charity resolution

Hey all! I thiiiiiiink I am going to continue raising money for animal charities in 2025! We were able to help so many orgs & people this year (meeting the goal of $100,000!!! Insane!!) that it feels crazy not to keep thirsting it up for the cats - even though I’m trying to pare down on responsibilities this year & make more space for writing, this felt so great!! So many cats were helped!!

In addition to BTS, early access, shoots and Q&A’s - is there anything you’d li...

Bestie breaks down trans bathrooms

Here is my hot take on the non-issue that is bathrooms and access. Let's focus on more important things: like rising inflation costs, the erosion of democracy, and the horrid wealth gap

thank you & merry christmas! $2,000 raised for stray cat alliance!!

here's some photos from the vault! thanks so much for helping me raise a ton of money this year for charity. :')

You're hardwired for negativity bias

Our brains are designed to pick out & focus on what's wrong! But with neuroplasticity & practice, you can retrain your brain to focus on the positive and be less miserable lol

exclusive: coming for blood MV - BTS

Hey guys!

Thanks so much for supporting the renovations for Sante Dor Foundation this month. Catio Guy (a famous catio designer/builder) is going to be giving the nonprofit shelter a brand-spankin-new look & functionality next month - and I'm so excited to be sponsoring the new space for the in-transition kitties waiting for their forever homes!

That said- here is some exclusive BTS from the coming for blood music video. I haven't released music in a minute, and no rele...

exclusive: unpublished selects B&W

Here's the final unpublished selects from the shoot with Nicholas Freeman & Cat Calico!

early access: self silencing is making women sick

Q&A!

Thanks for all your questions! Here's a wee update & answers. And a heads up that I'm raising $5,515 for Sante Dor Foundation! They're getting a remodel of their shelter by Catio Guy!

exclusive: unpublished/unedited selects: Mask

Hey guys! Believe it or not these are raw images from Nicholas Freeman! His use of lighting in a shoot is truly remarkable. Cat Calico did the make up (though I guess you can't see that too well with this over my head). Fun fact: this is, yet again, another dress we draped over my head and just tied back with a hair tie.

BTW - I asked Nicholas why it looked like my boob had droplets on it, and he pointed out it was my iridescent white nails. lol.

BTS for upcoming shoot!

Working with Nicholas Freeman & Cat Calico again now that I’m back in the States! The funniest part of these shoots is that the fabric over my head is just a dress. We just put a dress on my head for multiple shots - & they look… insanely artistic, right?

Q&A video will be up soon as well as selects & exclusives from this shoot!

CPR used to go through your butt

Can you believe.... this?

Good news!

It looks like there has finally been a solve for the stalker! Thanks so much for being patient while I grieved congress & also dealt with harassment. Really appreciate the kind messages I got from everyone during all this

I’ll be back to doing photo shoots now & should have some up for you shortly!

Also someone requested I do another Q&A video: if you have any questions, feel free to drop them here & I’ll do a video with an update & answers

Thank you ...

Harassment & taking a break

Hey all, sorry to continue putting this shit here, but just so you know what I'm dealing with on a daily basis, this person keeps creating new accounts like this & spamming my feeds on all social media platforms with this. The Patreon safety team is trying to figure out a solution, and thank you to all the folks on reddit who helped report him when he attacked me there, but it's been relentless - so I will be taking a break for my mental health. I'll pop in to schedule posts from time to ...

$2,500 raised for Orphan Kitten Club!

Thank you for helping me raise funds for Kitten Lady's nonprofit, Orphan Kitten Club. This donation is made in memory of sweet baby angel Congress, who raised just as many foster kittens as I did.

what's been going on

an update x

early access: gen z vs millennial being kidnapped

Look I'll be honest, this is a silly little nothing video. I had to shoot 3 months worth of content before I went to Scotland, so at a certain point I just threw anything/everything at the wall haha.

That caveat aside, I like how this one turned out! I think it's just a cute little chuckle of a video. And sometimes, that's all you can do

make a pizza with me as I grieve my dead cat

I miss Congress so much :*(

exclusive: contact sheets & a "fix it in post" moment

howdy!! I had the pleasure of shooting with the amazing Becca Need-Meaner again in London.

we initially scheduled a shoot to create a tour poster for my Aus, NZ & Asia tour dates. I had this image in my head of me with a noose braid.

for some reason "it gets darker" hasn't been enough of a hint to people that the stand up show is indeed quite dark, so though there's no complaints necessarily, I've received quite a few "WHOA okay that DID get darker than I thought!" comments -...
