into: throwing things at cops, terrifying gender fascists, alienating people who deserve it, reading books by rabblerousers, genderqueers
not into: Lou Dobbs, getting tear-gassed, HRC, Obama, getting my PhD, Mormons, gender fascism, this oil slick we call our culture
makes me happy: chihuahuas, my partner of 8 years, ginger ale, courageous trans folks, autumn, a new book, San Francisco, anarchist punks, not having insomnia, Portland, OR, punk rock genderqueer teens who are well-read, My Bloody Valentine's album Loveless, the music scene in Athens, GA (where I went to college), going to shows to see my favorite bands and only 10 people are there, lesbians with acoustic guitars
makes me sad: child abuse, animal cruelty, long winters, bigotry, racism/sexism/transphobia among white gay males, gentrification, the overwhelmingly successful indoctrination of the American public, nationalism, severe bouts of disabling insomnia
5 things i can't live without: "Loveless" by My Bloody Valentine

body mods: I used to have my entire face pierced from the late 80's until the mid 90's when I was doing the rave thing.
heroes: Emma Goldman, Mumia Abu-Jamal, Valerie Solanas, Cesar Chavez, Rachel Corrie, Noam Chomsky, Bertha Capen Reynolds, Assata Shakur, Ramsey Clark, the brave people who have acted on behalf of Earth First!, anyone who has participated in a Black Bloc & did so
gets me hot: when my S.O does the dishes or goes to the store to buy me a pack of smokes (that's what happens after 8 years of "marriage")
fantasy: torturing Lou Dobbs until he screams "Papi, no mas por favor! Lo siento!"
most humbling moment: when I realized I wasn't all that smart
i lost my virginity: At age 19 (I was a late bloomer cuz I was a fag living in a rural area at the time) to a gorgeous 18 year old biracial (asian/white) guy. It happened in front of a fireplace while that song "Linger" by the Cranberries played in the background and it snowed outside. Sickening, I know.
