It's today. Carlos' birthday, and, as he would tell it, like Vera Charles, he is somewhere between forty.....and death. But he doesn't get to tell it. I do, because it's my blog and I'll write about him if I want to....

Carlos constantly amazes me. I learn something new about him, from him, every day. His hasn't always been the easiest path; he's had more ups and downs than a power top at an all-night orgy, but he moves on with a smile. He's endured things and overcome things that would break a lesser man, but he does it a laugh and, perhaps, a little sashay that would make RuPaul green with envy.

He has a smirk that makes me swoon.
He has a way with words that makes me feel like a dizzy redhead.
He has a heart and passion for life that is unmatched.

So, here we are, celebrating his birthday for the :::gulp::: twenty-second time together, and I am looking forward to more, and more, and more.

I love you, Carlos, for who you were, and who you are, and who you will be.

Happy Birthday, Baby, and if they ask, I won't tell.

And because it’s your birthday, I’ll post a little song about how you make me feel:

I commented on a Facebook post about Franklin Graham coming down hard on Disney, and I said I had more faith in Disney than in Frank. A woman told me I was going to Hell, and I replied:

“If it’s anything like Disney, and there are no Republicans or faux-Christians there, then it really will be the happiest place on Earth.”

Thank you. I’m here all week.

I mentioned the other day that Matt Gaetz voted against capping insulin co-pays because, well, fat people deserve it if they get diabetes. But when I didn’t mention, was that every single Democrat voted for the cap while 193 House Republicans voted NO.

The votes don’t lie; only the Democratic Party is lowering health care costs.

I was getting gas this morning at pump 3, and I noticed the person before me bought $10 worth. Where the hell were they going? Pump 4?

A field 51 candidates have filed to run in the special election to fill Alaska’s lone Congressional seat, and they include current and former lawmakers, a homebuilder and his brother, the former half-term quitting governor, Sarah Palin and … North Pole City Council member Santa Claus.

Wouldn’t it be a hoot if Palin lost to Santa?

I have no problem with men wearing dresses. I kinda like the idea of a constant breeze on my junk, but, sheesh, I see this and think ‘Dude looks like a sister wife.’

I am not really a fan of Ariana Grande; for years I thought her bratty and petulant and self-entitled, and I still don’t think I was wrong but … she is a very strong ally for the LGBTQ+ community. And with transgender youth under attack by the GOP all across the country, Grande established the Protect & Defend Trans Youth Fund, and started it all off with her own donation of $1.5 million, and is asking her fans and LGBTQ+ allies to support the cause:

“Right now there are hundreds of disgraceful bills pending in state legislature that target trans youth and aim to curb their rights. [The Protect & Defend Trans Youth Fund] will support organizations providing direct services and advocating for the rights of trans youth [and] will provide critical funds to organizations advocating for the rights of trans youth.”

Eighteen groups will benefit from the cash, including Equality Florida, the Black Trans Advocacy Coalition, Southern Arizona Gender Alliance, and the Tennessee Equality Project.

Thanks Ariana for taking a stand.

Let this sink in: Tennessee Republicans don’t want people to say Gay in their state but are willing to remove the age requirements for marriage.

Meaning you cannot talk about Johnny’s two Daddies, but you can talk about thirty-year-old Cousin Jim Bob and his twelve-year-old wife.

Giove Taiola. He’s Italian and, well, that’s all I’ve got. But that’s all you need for this week’s Would You Hit It?
Would You?
