I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm basically a minister. I love to ride my bicycle and wear my helmet, cuz safety is sexy. I want to see an anarcho-queer community grow and strengthen to a sustainable existence. Prison abolition is one of the most important things to me ever. I like to dance all the time. i like to swim and run, but with this crazy weather changes i've done it far less, but the amount of sportyness that i am becoming is pretty great. I like making out with cute folks, but have a thing for straight boys who should be a little more homo. Being vegan is pretty awesome, but Amy said I'm "post-vegan" because sometimes I cheat... I produce enough body heat for three people. I think anti-racism organizing is essential for any real change in the world."Hipsters are to gentrification what fluffers are to the porn biz: we get the area ready for the big pricks to come in and blow their load..."read: http://brooklynrail.org/2006-10/express/farewell-to-cbgbs.. ..

My Interests

Making anarchy. Talking about whiteness and accountable organizing. Kissing. Lying in bed listening to music. Looking for myself on Craigslist missed connections. Non-monogomy. All my relationships,my friends, and the rest. Prison aboliton. Writing in my journal, though I sure don't do it as much as I would like. Helping my church grow and be cooler. listening to christmas music (don't laugh)

I'd like to meet:

Folks who will organize with me. People who will go to my church and help the average age drop some. Anyone who likes hot 'n' sweaty dancing. Queers, especially queers who like making out. Someone who knows about the St. Patricks Batallion. Someone to make me learn Spanish. People who want to read books together. Someone who will snuggle up and watch excessive movies with me. Anyone who wants to do a triathalon.

Music:

good music... like Modest Mouse, At the Drive In, The Cure, Gillian Welch, The Smiths, Postal Service, Lauryn Hill, Moldy Peaches, Damien Rice, The Pouges, Against Me, Anti-flag, Johnny Cash, The Moment, Joanna Newsom, June Carter

Movies:

super hero movies, the raspberry reich, wonderboys, thelma and louise, beaches (sometimes i live stereotypes...), v for vendetta

Television:

i wish i hated it, but i don't. i will watch much of anything when the days has been long and hard and i can't handle thinking about the revolution anymore.

Books:

BBoy Blues, Stone Butch Blues, The Rich Get Richer the Poor get Prison, I Rigoberta Menchu, Long Walk to Freedom, Naked, Gandhi's Passion, Lockdown America, Eureka Street

Heroes:

They are endless. So many in my every day life. So many radical leaders in history. I'm influenced by the actions of all those justice seekers before me, the ones struggling today, and those I know will come in the future!
