With everything that has happened in my home country regarding police brutality towards people of color, I thought it was time to put my two cents in on the topic. My brother advised against it because of my lack of negative interaction with law enforcement. However, I have to disagree. I think it’s because of my lack of interaction with the blue blood community is precisely why I can talk about it. So, allow me to express my opinion on the topic at hand.
To carry on with Pride Month, I would like to shine a spotlight on LGBTQ+ owned business.
This time around, I want to focus on this new wrestling company that I found out about through Paul Charles, aka the Gay Comic Geek. The models/wrestlers are all phenomenal in both their craft and outside endeavors. The co-owner of the business is Ethan Axel Andrews and he’s as sexy as he is talented. Seriously, he’s really hot. As of recently, he’s decided to step down so he can continue being an independent freelance wrestler which I 100% respect. You have to go with your passion.
The Underground Championship Wrestling, or UCW, is a new wrestling company that “features plenty of body strikes and punching, classic gut work-overs, and also plenty of good old-fashioned dirty tactics like ball grabs, hair pulls stuff like that (that makes it more fun for us!). It’s “anything goes” in our “ring”, we do whatever it takes to win by submission, pin, or knockout.” (This is literally from the site.)
Well, new for me, anyway. It has actually been around for about eleven years so I’m really late to the party. Better late than never, though, right?
Plus, you have to see what they wear. Usually, it’s speedos and singlets which is hot. But, every now and again, they will don jockstraps and body oil for special matches. The best part is that all their matches can be bought and downloaded at a very cheap price
I got to view some of the content via screenshot and I was instantly impressed with what I saw. Unfortunately, I can’t buy any of it because I’m still working out the kinks of transfer water over international waters. The only thing I could do was subscribe to their newsletter. I also managed to do the next best thing: I started following the sexiest models on Instagram. One of them, Gabe Steel, will be utilizing his good looks for some of the book covers.
But don’t take my word for it, see for yourself.

Now, please, don’t forget to follow me on my social media platforms (Twitter, Instagram, and Goodreads) which are on the right side of my web page. Also, I do love hearing suggestions of what books to read outside of my norm (Science fiction and fantasy) as I am a part of the Goodreads’ reading challenge for 2020. My goal is to read 100 books this year and I’m already at 77. Probably end up reading 120 before the year is out.
So, for Pride Month, I decided to spend every Friday creating a Top 10 List of anything LGBTQ+ that I can think of at that moment. Just something to change the pace and make everyone smile. (For the previous list, click here.) This week, I would like to tell you guys the ten favorite Broadway songs because what type of gay guy would I be if I didn’t like Broadway. Just so you know…I don’t have it in a particular order because that’s too hard. ha ha! I also put the link to each of the videos.
The role of the reacher is of that of a parent but only on a smaller scale. As a teacher, we are tasked to not only teach kids to be intellectually progressive towards their education but, also, to be a respectable member of society. People seem to forget that school isn’t just for learning from books, but also to learn for the real world. Parents, especially, because they don’t seem to think that this is something to be of great importance. I learned that the hard way.
Tens. Tens. TENS ACROSS THE BOARD!!! I’m in the process of reading a fantastic series that has an ensemble cast of LGBTQ+ characters that can’t seem to keep themselves out of trouble. But, that’s what makes this book series so great. So, in the words of this marvelous series: “Welcome To Boystown”.

The fact that I’m back to teaching is something that fills my heart with so much joy. I can’t tell you how much I love teaching. All of my colleagues spend Sunday at an expat bar (bar owned by a foreign) to talk about our first full week back. I couldn’t be happier. Especially since I have been granted the nickname of “Tónghuà lǎoshī” (童话老师) which means Fairy Teacher which I will take because I used a Spider-man baton as my “wand”. But there’s something else we wanted to talk about at the bar: What we were going to do for Pride?
I am so happy right now for so many reasons. My school is opening up this week and my lesson plans are ready to go. This is going to be such a welcome relief because I don’t think I can go another week without teaching my kids. And, that’s not the only thing that made me ever so gitty. Wait for it…I’ve made new friends!!!
I got one thing to say to you all about my current situation. Are you ready? I am in for a wild few months. Maybe six. Yeah, I guess I should add some context to this, shouldn’t I. I thought so. I guess I should start at the beginning.
Well, I just got done with Short Story #24 and, that was AFTER I got done with three classes and a workout session. Needless to say, I feel delicious and want to swirl a chair around in a celebratory fashion. I’m definitely going to buy a computer desk and a swirly chair when I get done with finalizing my budget for my literary projects. But enough work talk, let me tell you something interesting that happened to me this week.
