RuPaul’s DragCon ’19 – Photos – Day 1, Part 1

Well, I just finished this party today, and I got a lot. There is quite the mass of photos coming. So many from the first day I’m splitting the album in 3 parts. So if you don’t see yourself yet don’t worry, it’s coming.

Maybe the hardest photos to take were all the queens coming down the pink carpet because they just kept coming one after the other so soon after each person. Then the camera crews walking in front of me didn’t help much, but I was able to get some nice shots of them.

More of my story of the day to come as I upload the rest.

Across The Water

Of the many times i’ve been to Venice, I’ve never had a chance to see the canals, and if you ask me it’s much cooler then I expected. Then again I wasn’t sure what to expect. And the homes in the neighborhood are pretty nice. I would live there, if I had the money, which is likely not going to happen. Though, not sure it would be a good place for pets. Oh well.

Terminator: Dark Fate

The first Terminator movie I saw was Terminator 2, as a kid. I remember wanting to see it in theaters because Arnold Schwarzenegger was one of my favorite actors at the time. But kept being told I was still to little and it would scare me. I eventually saw it and highly enjoyed the movie. I later saw the 3rd movie and Salvation in theaters, but still haven’t seen Genisys yet, still. I keep hearing it’s pretty bad.

But seeing Linda Hamilton back is nice because I’ve always liked her. And I guess this means the third movie is no longer canon because it was said her character died before the events of that movie. Lets see how this one goes.

Long Beach Pride ’19 – Photos

Well, that came out to be a really good day. I got there a little later then I had wanted to, off of maybe at least 4 hours of sleep. But I was ready for this.

It was raining on the way down while taking the metro, and I was worried the ground would still be a bit wet because skating on a wet surface is not fun. It was mostly dry by the time I had my blades on and started going up and down the route. getting everything I could. As the day went on it did get warmer, and when the parade ended I kept going up and down the street to get anything else I can find.

At one moment, while walking on the sidewalk I heard this thump, looked over and see a cup that feel out of the window of a top floor apartment. I got their attention and the person came down stairs to put up the cup and invited me up to join the party. So did not expect but I liked. Guy also had a nice view of the ocean. After I was done there I went back down to take more photos and headed back home soon after words.

Oh what a glorious day.

Comic Con Revolution ’19

This was my first time doing this convention, and the first time I was inside the Ontario convention center. though a bit small, it’s a pretty nice looking place. And I have to say, the lights in the exhibit hall were pretty good. I’m finding myself rather happy with how they come out.

I would say I got a nice set of photos for the amount of time I was there, which was most of the day. I also recorded a couple of short videos of friends being silly, because that’s always awesome.

Would do again.

Leaving LB Pride ’19

Well, this ended up being a good weekend. On saturday I was in Ontario for Comic Con Revolution, and sunday I was in Long Beach Pride. I got a lot of photos coming up during this week, so brace yourself for them. Most from pride, which is what I am always looking forward to returning because of how wild it always is.

But for now, Just showcasing myself on my way home from that wonderful madness.

The Need for Reproductive Rights

The fight over reproductive rights has been raging on pretty hard lately because of states like Alabama and Ohio working on passing messed up laws when it comes to abortion. Unfortunately the “prolife” crowd are listening to idiots that either don’t know what the hell they are talking about, or are straight up lying.

Somethings to clear up, post birth abortions are not a thing! Late term is only legal in dire cases! and an ectopic pregnancy has to be aborted, it’s not possible to plant a fertilized egg to a uterus in such a situation! Also the entire “prolife” movement never started as a fight against abortion, but that of birth control because church leaders want churches filled up more. That and they want more bodies to send to war. Also, have you ever notice how so many “prolife” leaders are church leaders? and how many church leaders themselves have been exposed to being #sexual #predators? Gee, you wonder if their is a connection? Now, do the followers understand what they might be unknowingly supporting?

Further more, if you see a person hanging around some place displaying their morbid signs, find a way to get them to admit they are being paid to do this. I got this chick to while in Moorpark while trolling her buddies and eating a sandwich in front of them over 10 years ago. Oh, and try to record them saying it too.

Where Ever I May Romani

In the wild world of the internet, people post crazy memes that sometimes make no sense. Now and then you find something that catches your attention because of a claim about how something doesn’t look familiar to you. For example, no place in LA looks like that.

Now, yes, there is a homeless problem, that I think we are doing a poor job at taking care of. Yet we can look at models like that of what was done in Utah, THAT WORKED, and make it national.

Now, often some people complain about migrants and refugees coming into a new country, and not assimilating with the local customs and such. Which is oddly enough something I’ve seen happen most of my life. Hell, turns out more often than not, even invaders will learn about other cultures and take elements they like and incorporate it to their way of life. Genghis Khan is an example of just that.
