This Trans Day of Visibility, I’m Thinking About Gloria Hemingway and Names

When Eagles Rest and Words Take Flight

My reflections on finding a new home

Apr 12

A bald eagle perches solemnly on a bare tree branch, its white head and dark feathers striking against a pale gray winter sky. The tree’s branches stretch outward like open arms, empty of leaves but full of quiet presence. The eagle gazes to the left, alert yet calm, embodying both solitude and strength.

Through My Eyes: A Homecoming at Vancouver’s Hands Off Rally — 4/5/25

This was our first protest together in 27 years — but somehow, it felt like home.

Apr 11

A cartoon-style protest scene inspired by “The Simpsons,” set in a bright city park with cherry blossom trees and a snow-capped mountain in the distance. Yellow-skinned characters, including an elderly woman with a walker, a young man with a LOVE shirt, and a woman holding a protest sign, stand among a diverse crowd holding signs like “Liberty and Justice for All” and “Paws Off Parks.” The atmosphere is colorful, cheerful, and energetic, echoing themes of civic unity and cartoon satire.

When Silence Becomes a Weapon (Poetry)

How I carried the cost of quiet and found the courage to speak

Apr 1

Illustration of a weary traveler carrying an oversized burden on his back, walking through a desolate landscape with autumn leaves scattered around. The weight of the burden appears immense, symbolizing the emotional heaviness of silence. The image reflects the theme of quiet struggles and unspoken pain.
