I loved seeing everyone come out for No Kings and all the amazing signs. Now that this protest is over and you are waiting for the next one, I want to highlight some ways you can continue to be involved in the movement: (1/6)

King’s Island Fall Festival!! #fallfestival #fall #kingsisland

If you are going to a No Kings protest today, stay safe and hydrated! It’s going to be a hot one here in Ohio. And know your rights! If you don’t have the ACLU phone number, save it now and write it in sharpie on your arm just in case! The Ohio ACLU is (614) 586-1978. #nokings #ohio #protest

Final Girl Season + Cute but Spooky Mugs = My Favorite Season! #fall #spookyseason #horror #horrorlover #coffee #coffeelover

#hayleywilliams & #strangefruit Originally published as a poem in 1937 titled "Bitter Fruit" by Abel Meeropol & later turned into a song sung by Billie Holiday titled “Strange Fruit”, this haunting tale tells the story of lynchings & racial injustice set in the South. #paramore

I am devastated to hear about Miss. Major. Her book meant so much to me and was a catalyst for my activism and advocacy journey. She was truly one of the best of us. Rest in Power Miss. Major. #missmajor #missmajorspeaks

Miss Major has passed away. We've lost an icon for the ages. Rest in power.

It was a beautiful weekend at the PFLAG national convention filled with so much love and education, I can’t wait to implement all the things I learned at our local chapter! #pflag #pflagproud #pflagnationalconvention #lgbtq #lgbtqia

Feeling so incredibly motivated after spending the weekend at the PFLAG National Convention. It was powerful to be in a room filled with almost 500 people who feel so strongly about the mission of providing love, support and education to the LGBTQIA+ community and those who love them. #pflag #lgbtq

I had the honor of seeing Governor Pritzker speak in-person at the PFLAG National Convention and it was so inspiring. #pflag #pflagproud #lgbtq #advocacy #rebellion

My Banned Book Week recommendations!! What are some of your favorite banned or challenged books?? #booksky #bannedbooks #bannedbookweek #reading

I had a blast at the University of Dayton’s Coming Out Day Festival! It’s always so fun making connections and spreading the PFLAG mission! #pflag #pflagdayton #comingoutday #lgbtq

So thrilled to have been a part of “We’ll Always Be Here: A Summit on Trans Lives Past, Present, & Future” - so powerful to connect with everyone and hear all the speakers! #trans #transgender #translivesmatter #lgbtq

“I refuse to stop loving, to stop caring. To avoid these tears, that pain...to err on the side of passion is human and right, and the only way to live.” - John Krakauer(Into the Wild) #love #care #justice #support #kindness

And the gender criticals will still say that care is too easily accessed because they don't think trans people should exist at all.

Robin is the keynote speaker for “We’ll Always Be Here: A Summit on Trans Lives Past, Present, & Future” in Dayton, OH this Saturday! As powerful as they are beautiful, his books touch on what it means to be queer, finding connections & love in this world. Go check them out! #lgbtq #lgbtqbooks

New tattoos! My great grandma’s last name was Schell, so she had sea shells all over her house. And my grandma on the other side was a descendant of PT Barnum and she was so proud of that. We had annual circus themed family reunions! 😂 So the circus tent is in honor of her. #tattoos

New tattoo incoming! 😍 #tattoo #tattootherapy

Okay, so I am traveling to Chicago for a conference in October. I will about 4-6 hours of free time on a Sunday afternoon. Give me all your recs! Places to go, things to see, food to eat - I am all ears!! #chicago #travel #tourism

Me talking about the orange man and his cronies. #resistance #fdt

It’s always interesting when politicians say hate and violence have no place in this country. It was founded on those principles.

Growth is hard. When you start living your truth and being your authentic self, there will always be people who don’t like it. Still live it anyways. You deserve love, growth, healing and the ability to live your truth. If those people can’t get behind that, they are not your people.

I am watching this Laci Peterson documentary on Netflix and it is SO wild. If Scott is innocent, he did not do anything to make himself look good in this case and there were some WILD coincidences… #lacipeterson

Our work is not done… 📌 Sinclair Broadcast Group is still refusing to air Jimmy Kimmel Live! on its ABC affiliates nationwide. Folks, you know what to do. Google Sinclair-owned networks and channels in your city and act accordingly.

A little funny Hobbit vs. Dragon Rider & her Dragon for your Tuesday. #renaissancefestival #hobbit #dragon #booksky

I was a part of an evangelical Christian church where the rapture & hell were very real (they even did a Christmas service all about hell that was TERRIFYING). I swear to god (LOL) that I was scared all the time. When you’re in it, it feels SO real. Anyways, excited to still be here on Thursday.

Starting this book today! #booksky #politicalbooks

Do you want to eat chips and talk shit with us??

I know, I know. I’m sure this is an option for everyone, but it feels like a call out. 😂 #nerd #outcast

(un) FORTUNATELY I Love all of these things!

Also, what are your favorite ways to cook tofu? I have been doing some experimenting and I would love ideas! #vegan #vegetarian #tofu

I am starting my #vegan journey and I would LOVE some of your favorite vegan alternatives and brands!

September is Suicide Prevention Month and I am so glad I chose to stay for moments like these. I hope you always choose to stay too. 💛 #mentalhealth
