Rewatching #FROM series with Harold Perrineau, noticing they could have saved 5 mins per episode... If they'd cut even half the times people said "fuck" or "fucking". It ridiculously overused & interrupts cadence and speech flow. I mean, you even expect the cow to moo "fuck" after a while 🙄

Incorporating this memory into a solstice love story between a transgender young woman and a man with an invisible disability.  A short essay on a Romanian self-proclaimed guru visiting Berlin! It was an unforgettable evening. I kid you not. #writersky #comingsoon redhaircrow.com/2010/10/24/m...

Happy #IndigenousPeoplesDay

I am seeing a lot of people reposting Lakota Man today bc it's Indigenous Peoples Day. A reminder that he is not well liked amongst many (most?) Natives on social media. Many of us blocked him a long time ago. Some of the reasons why are in this article. www.dailydot.com/irl/lakotama...

Autumn #Berlin before the greys and rain started. Endeavoring to remain sanguine despite the USofKKK, Japan, the UK, Germany... I can keep ticking off all the hatemongering, genocide supporting, human rights violating, pseudo-Christian, pedophile fetishizing govs making our lives hell.

Indigenous. Indigeneity. Colonized, internalized misogyny, bigotry, transphobia, homophobia, anti-Blackness, white proximity. Christianity.

Causal Loop By Red Haircrow Because you're a thinker. Because sometimes that was all you could do was think, but damned if you didn't want your brain to stop analyzing what you did wrong when it was another you, back then when your mouth couldn't say 'stop' and only afterwards: 'how could you'.

2nd harvest of tomatillos & like the fruit, my gay Regency novel is vine ripe and will soon be ready. Look forward to "Twin Masquerade" coming soon! For now, try my best seller, "The Agony of Joy", a modern gothic romance. It's on sale! www.jms-books.com/red-haircrow... #writersky #writerlife

"Escaping Winnetou" is the new campaign at Survival International. Brochure & vid at link. I was contacted for commentary on the topic, as a new film of racist Native stereotypes was released, and normalized racism is on the rise in Germany also. www.survivalinternational.de/kampagnen/es...

My 14 August interview at Deutschlandfunk Kultur on racism & the willful use of #Native stereotypes + it's connection to other human rights violations, discrimination and genocides. With sound clips from my documentary, "Forget Winnetou!" forgetwinnetou.com/2025/08/15/d...

Timeline brightener. It's that season! 1st #tomatoes & #tomatillos, and salsa verde is my favorite. There's more coming as the bushes are loaded, both green and purple varieties. #balconygarden #Berlin

Times are extreme for so many (an understatement) but, "Take a moment. Breathe. Be." Keep fighting for love, goodness & human rights and take care of yourself. Be kind, protect your heart, but still check haters. #MondayMotivation #Bees #Bienen #Berlin #balconygarden #citylife

Critically important, esp for #Indigenous peoples, who often receive less resources, support, and empath + have outright violence directed at us on a daily basis. From a conversation with Wanbli Gleske Tohake (Lakota), a mentor and encouragement to many. This is what he told me.

Battling still the sophomore slump, but June 30th deadline is Real. Sequels: "Berlin Shift" follows Night Shift". "The Joy of Pain" continues "The Agony of Joy". "Saving Gigi" brings more of Dari & Rob's love story. And NEW novel, "Twin Masquerade", a gay Regency... #writersky #booksky

Last year around this time, "Tell me, where you're from?" How stereotypes can go hand-in-hand with racism and cultural appropriation. A deceptively simple yet highly complex topic, that's societal & individual. My part begins at 10:40. youtu.be/Y1vv7Eus_fI?...

June 2024 to 2025- Still Relevant! – “Rate Woher Ich Komme” on Datteltäter Against the backdrop of current events as Germany as a government and country continues to be on the wrong side of history, backing ethnic cleansing, electing agressively racist, zenophobic and intolerant leaders who wish…

#TimelineCleanser. My son bought me a new pinwheel today. Reminded me of "Pinwheel" on Nickelodeon yrs ago. Babysat my nephew who loved it & I did, too. Shorts like Chappi & Chano from FR, Henry the Hedgehog from UK, and one from Sweden. Learning love & compassion from childhood not hate.

Whenever I see cherries, I always think of that scene in "Splash" (1984). We are a film quoting family. "My brother bought your slimey cherries?!" "How'd you like bananas at cost? Deal!" #80sNostalgia #80sFilms

I strike through or highlight in grey with a note in e-versions. If it's a lot, I cut to a separate doc & save as "Excerpt A". When handwriting, I strike through or arrow out and write alongside. I never throw away revisions, notes, ideas, stories. I have some from age 10. #writersky #writerlife

Just a reminder for #PrideMonth and who started it all by speaking up, refusing to accept the violence, discrimination, abuses anymore. None of us are free until we're all free. This graphic has been circulating a few years, is terrific & Speaks. Powerfully.

A journal for #gay #poetry. A review of my work: "...completely wrenched my heart! How you manage to say so much with so few words and yet convey worlds of meaning is incredible." Part inspirational for "The Agony of Joy". #booksky #writersky siblingrivalrypress.bigcartel.com/product/assa...

Found this today. My older (and only sibling) and I love #TheLostBoys. She used to skip high school. Check me out of middle school and go watch it, because our parents wouldn't let us see R rated films. So we did it in the afternoon when they were working. Saw it in theater 29x.

German signs, ya'll. Meme-ing without meaning to. #memes

This scene from "Blades of Glory" still makes me laugh because I'd eat it. Looks just fine to me. 🙂 It was supposed to be a joke, but some people do think like that obviously. If you want it, why not? #homophobia in #films

In my novel, "The Agony of Joy", a pivotal point for Adrian & Lexx was their 1st holiday together at the country house near #Berlin. Like many scenes, it's based on actual places I lived or visited. See posts here & my Tik-Tok. Here it is! I slept in the clock room. #writersky #booksky #photos

They watched this movie win an Oscar and said "that's right, we did all that...and as soon as he's back we'll kill him" The West created this monster. This is 100% on Germany, France, UK and the US who have not only enabled but encouraged these beasts. Shame on you. Shame on you.
