Arday wasn't fired for plagiarism. Liverpool John Moores University last week confirmed it had investigated and dismissed claims of plagiarism against Arday last year. Arday resigned because the unrelenting hostility destroyed his mental health causing him to end his life.

I just got to experience watching WILLY WONKA AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY on a theater big screen. It's a movie I adore (w/very fond memories of watching it with my dad often). Gene Wilder was my 1st instructor on perfect line deliveries of sarcasm. It was about 100 minutes of joy for a bargain $14.

I am still fundraising for Faith's legal and medical bills. It would mean a lot to me if you can donate if you can or share if you can't.
My kiddo Faith was a straight A student until her granddad (the only father she knew) died after a long battle with dementia. Now, the legal system is punishing her for having a mental break in the worst time of her life. Please donate or share: tinyurl.com/246c9bbm

Hi all. Carlos Ernesto Guerra Cruz, who is currently following the asylum process in the Denver area, was detained by ICE.

His family is in desperate need of help, both to get legal assistance and to survive with the loss of his income.

It is too hot to wear a bra. If anyone has a problem with my unbound breasts completely concealed beneath my black t-shirt, it is their "moral" problem, not mine. They can always stop staring.

I enjoy Bon Jovi's music very much.
With the exception of "Livin' On A Prayer". I swear my loathing for that song should be studied. 😡

A wonderful singer who's voice comforted me often and a lovely gentleman. Rest in peace, Mr. Bryson.

To my peeps, and my Brown and LGBTQ friends. Never forget that your light was so damn bright they handed the world to the first asshole who promised to dim it.

It is searing cruelty when the brain replays every embarrassing moment, every devastating humiliation & denies ever filing a happy moment.

I spent this Sunday sitting by the water, watching folks sail, kayaking, and jet ski under a beautiful blue, sunny sky & celebrating the memory of my daddy. A flawed but doting single mom. What a hoot that man was!

I am confident right now stating that my personal favorite year for music is 1984.

I had to surrender my beloved dog to a safe haven today. I am unable to care for him right now, & I'm devastated. I've not only failed myself, I have failed the truest, most loyal & loving friend I've ever had. May he forgive me. Any good thoughts you have for me & Henry are greatly appreciated.

"I wish I could just make you turn around (turn around and see me cry). There's so much I need to say to you (so many reasons why). You're the only one who really knew me at all."
Damn it, Phil. 40+ years on, and this song MOVES me.

Dinner Farris' "I Know" was just what I needed to hike up this hill. Great tune!

When you pull up to a new to you camp site & the 1st thought in your head is Bill Hader's Stefon saying, "If you're just some dumb folks looking to be mu*de*ed," it's time to upgrade to another spot surrounded by others.

My Henry was a big hit at the bookstore in Boonsboro, MD. He earned his pup cup next door.

I'm traveling this week, and today I visited my dad's grave. I only stayed for about 5 minutes but it was enough. Very soothing. Just to tell him I love and miss him. Though I do hope he's in a place where he's gotten to dance Raquel Welch. I miss his sense of humor the most.

Dancing as I vacuum and singing along with The Pointer Sisters', "Automatic" is the burst of joy I needed just now.
