Some shady little freak is impersonating me on Facebook. Since April 24th, they've been stealing and re-uploading ALL of my TikToks and pretending they're the original creator. If you are on Facebook, please report them for this crap. Thank you. Username is The.real.zyered4

Kudos to my buddy Elisabeth for telling me and taking this screenshot.

For every disgusting law and taxpayer dollar aimed against queer people's right to exist, there is a person educating the public, shutting down arguments, and protecting the kids. Don't succumb to despair, you're doing the fascists' jobs for them!

Keep your eyes on the light! Or as Mr. Rogers would say, the Helpers!

Here's one of several necklaces I made to raise money for my friend Maelah, who recently lost their housing and is living in a hotel at the time of this post. 100% of the profits from this piece will be donated directly to their CashApp, and I ALWAYS post screenshots of the receipts!

Maelah's favorite colors are green, brown and burgundy, and I have a very convenient amount of green beads to use. I hope the power of beads can help my friend while they continue to search for housing.

As of the time of this post, you can find this necklace and others in my shop! ko-fi.com/zyered/shop/fundraising

Guys, there's a group of people who aim to create an anti-AI, anti-censorship social media platform that ethically pays its content creators!

"Every image uploaded to our platform is automatically "poisoned" against AI, with no effort required from you."

"If you ask us to, we’ll go retrieve all your photos/videos from Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, etc, and automatically upload them to your Haven account [...]"

"...we have another trick up our sleeve to amp up our manual detection of AI content, and pay our creators more at the same time: crowdsource the detection and turn it into tips."

Please support Haven Social on Kickstarter, because if they succeed in this venture I hope to be one of the first people there! I'll backflip through the ceiling and divebomb into their platform wearing iridescent shutter shades with a firework in my mouth! PLEASE SUPPORT THEM!

Made these trans-themed earrings for delivery to one of my favorite consignment spots.

Don't let the world's toxins leach out your color. You deserve to be your favorite version of yourself. I am glad you exist and hope you continue. Don't give the fascists the satisfaction of your surrender; we can get through this, somehow.

Guys do you think it would be funny if I called my internet community members Coworkers?

Like, Kurtis Connor has the Members of KurtisTown. Danny Gonzalez has Greg. Do we need a name for people or nah?

Hello, you amazing people. Don't give up on yourselves, and don't give up on the world. I know it looks like hell and it feels maddening if you're surrounded by people who don't give two craps about the horrors, but I'm here to remind you you are NOT insane for caring and there are millions of others who share your values. 🩵

Hello you shining stars. I'm just dropping in to say that I hope you are doing your best to treat yourselves well and give yourselves the same compassion you give others.

Hello you shining star! Here's an update:

The crisis in my household will have painful reverberations for a long time to come, but thanks to you we are no longer in a crisis. I've been composing updates for the GoFundMe so if you want to know exactly what's been happening and how your money's been used, please go to gofund.me/1a71bc249

In addition, I've been contemplating how this YouTube channel should be improved next year, along with my jewelry business and TikTok. There are numerous ideas rattling around my cranial tin can, but when I make promises to myself or the public I inevitably end up disappointing people, so I'm going to take things one step at a time.

I was also recently hired at a part-time job to rebuild my emergency savings, and I've been trying my best to manage my mental health.

I just wanted to let you know where I'm at right now. I appreciate you all and hope the holiday season is treating you kindly so far.
