Birds, can I tell you a secret, since we’re all being inundated via various social media outlets about this evening’s glittery gowns and award winners? (Golden Globes anyone? Pshhhhh, don’t pretend like the excitement of awards season is beneath you. It only makes you seem more pretentious than usual. )
Most so-called “red carpet” events where there’s an actual red carpet are tiny. The Globes and The Academy Awards are two of the [...]
Birds, say what you will about the desert.
Go on, complain about the heat and the scorpions; the dry, dusty wind that burns your throat in the spring and summer.
I love it, I love it, I love it all the more.
Which is why I’m back. No, not in Vegas. (I still haven’t managed to get the ciggy-and-booze scent off my clothing, despite multiple washes. “Filth” just seeps into your pores there, [...]
The other evening, Pretty Birds, while on my way into a Big Box Store to pick up a couple of tubes of my favorite exfoliating cleanser, a woman walking to her car, sandwiched by what appeared to be her two children, stopped in the middle of the parking lot to tell me, “Oh my gosh, you look so beautiful. OH MY GOSH, so beautiful, I love your hair!”
I, taken back by what she [...]
 Birds, let us not pretend Kanye West is a fashion-maestro, especially not after everyone panned his Paris debut (<—click the link to read what Susie “Bubble” has to say).
Let us also not pretend that Kanye West isn’t a million times more important to pop culture than Marc Jacobs, Raf Simmons, and Haider Ackerman combined.
He is, so when he takes the time to study-up (and study-up he did, with internships through Louis Vuitton and more), [...]
Pretty Birds, it reads like a giant LGBT Pride Parade montage, but it’s just so cute I couldn’t resist. Watch it and keep reading . . .
Now as much as I’m hankering for sweater weather, I’ll be sad to see the psychotic neon shades of summer head to the backs of everyone’s closets.
Very soon, the time will come to discuss fall trends, what can stay and what must go.
This fall, [...]
Little Birdies, did you catch this article on trans-athlete Chris Mosier?
The Grey Lady talks to him about his gender-identity struggles and his androgynous sense of style. Having met this guy a time or two- due to his work, and since he declined to state exactly what that is, I won’t either- I can personally, very much on the record, state that A) this picture doesn’t do him justice- he’s insanely good-looking, and [...]
Something’s afoot, Pretty Birds, more important than covetous wide-leg trousers, more beautiful than pink flamingos in thunderstorms.
Haven’t written lately, aside from posting to my inspiration tumblr, because I’ve been working on a great deal many things. Hoping to share some of them with you soon.
Until then, it’s three minutes until Monday. Make that two now . . . May Friday come swiftly. Until then, expect a couple of changes and perhaps some [...]
Good morning pretty birds,
Trying to figure out how to switch over to tumblr with least amount of hassle imaginable. Got a new phone with all kinds of gizmos and gadgets on it, prompting me to make the switch. Sorry if this causes any technical difficulties with viewing. Bear with me.
With this new platform and new tech capabilities, we be travellin’ to new, mega-magical places!

PS. I really need some wilderness in my life.
My vase doesn’t hold flowers. It holds my spare change. LOL.
Must get my mountain on soon. Must convince Nohea to come with me.

My bestfriend, yeah, the one who stole my boyfriend, Crazy Willy, from me, is graduating from college.
She inspires me to do a lot of things, like eat incessantly, up my tramp-y-ness quotient exponentially, decorate with doilies, (insert other rad things here).
She is pretty awesome, and I’m really proud of her.
Tomorrow will be short on posting, [...]

Welcome to RogueRanting.com.
Yes, that is me eating a hotdog. Yes, this is my blog.
Yes, my head is buzzed. No, I don't have cancer, just a shaved head. Need to know more? Bio here. You tweet? I tweet.
Got an inspiration tumblr? Me too! Wanna be friends? Or is all of this slang too confusing? Don't worry, just check out the RogueRanting Lexicon, where all the mysteries of the vernacular are demystified (kinda). Anything else? Ask here. Or email me nice things. Please no penis enhancement adverts though. Thanks!
