My birth mother was detained and deported by ICE. A big reason why I am here.

I am so thankful they didn't shoot her while capturing her. She is non-violent and has never been armed for one minute of her life.

But that has never stopped ICE thugs from executing immigrants on sight .

Howya, lads! I hope Monday's been good to ya. Gorgeous day on campus! I think I'm actually starting to make proper friends. It's great getting messages from the girls about non-college stuff, even if it's only nosiness about the Yank and her story 😁❤️

It's a month now and I'm still walking around with a big soppy smile on me from my favourite day ever
It took a lot of encouragement from her, but she got me to take the plunge! I was actually more concerned with the cool air temperatures than the water temperature. I have now been in the ocean on both sides of Atlantic, and at 54° N latitude!

Happy Sunday, everyone! The sun is out and it's the mildest it's been in a while, but I'm stuck inside with the study, playing catch-up after that lurgy knocked me flat on my arse for days. Still, it's a grand day altogether. It's lovely having the windows and patio door open.

The United States now only has state controlled media.

Only hand selected outlets with approved narratives can now cover the White House.

I claimed my citizenship and got the fuck out just in time.

Your standard petrol station monster roll > 90% of breakfast sandwiches in the States.

I'll die on that hill.

Morning, loves! Happy Saturday! Still can’t shake this rotten fatigue from this rotten COVID. 😩 Did make the most of the early sun, though—strolled down for my favourite breakfast roll, took in the sea air at the Prom, and now I’m settling in for a bit od writing. 💙

Was chattin’ up my baby brother back in the States tonight. He’s gearing up for a big trip in the mornin’g.

“Are you gonna miss your little girlfriend?”
“Yeah but I’ll forget about her in a couple of days.”
“Well don’t tell her (or any girl) that!”

On my mom @msbonnielynne.bsky.social ‘s recommendation, I threw on Colin From Accounts and I’m lovin’ it. I lashed through season one in one go — it’s pure gas, I swear. I’m mad about it. #tvsky

Haven’t watched nearly enough films lately to do a proper #LastFourWatched #LetterboxdFriday post, but I did watch Pressure (2026) from Anthony Marss.

Oh my God, lads, let me tell you… this film was SO good! Honestly, I was not expecting to love it as much as I did. 😍🎬

She sits at the Salthill Prom,
where Galway Bay stretches wide
beneath a sky broken open
by high, wandering clouds.

The sun is lower now,
slowly surrendering itself
to the horizon.

Thank you for all the love and lovely feedback. ❤️

I just write from the heart. Sometimes it’s a long one, sometimes it’s only a few lines. Sometimes it’s a poem, sometimes just a thought that’s spilled out onto the page.

Following up on my writings yesterday, this song has always meant so much to me. It’s about domestic violence, but for me, it has always carried a deeper meaning.

When I was 13, I was on a very dangerous path. I’m so thankful to my moms for giving me a “Safe Place to Land.”

The Family God Gave Me:

I was thirteen when I was adopted.

I came from the South, from a Southern Baptist world where faith was woven into everything.

Then I moved north, into a family I had never imagined having.

And somehow, I thought God had brought me there.

What scene makes you emotional no matter how many times you see it?

The ending of "Instant Family". Not to get TOO personal here, but this was my story. When I was adopted by my "moms" @drjayunbound.bsky.social and @msbonnielynne.bsky.social . Whole court room scene is very accurate.

I’ve been home and mostly in isolation with COVID since the weekend. Had to cancel my gig last night.

The good news is I’m back to my prime form in Rocket League. And I don’t even have my weed and Cheetos this time around. 😂
