The Invisible Queer

 Heyo! Happy Monday! This week's That Time... is a doozy. If you're a classic rock fan or a fan of Rod Stewart, you probably know exactly what this post is about. This one is a short one, but an interesting one. So bear with me. Of course need to put a warning about drug use. There are plenty of other posts that you are more than welcome to check out if this isn't your thing. If you are unfamiliar with Rod Stewart, let me introduce you to the ICON! He's a rockstar who also has a few pop bangers. I grew up with his music and can't remember a time in my life without his music. The first song I think of when he pops into my head is "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" . I know it's the most basic song of his, but I have fond memories listening to the song on the radio when I was a kid. He's also dabbled in a few bands, but I am more familiar with his solo work than his bands. Though check out his band, Faces. In 2012, Rod released his autobiography, Rod: The A

 Heyo! Happy Valentine's Day! This is a fun one and a long one. The title is not misleading. I wrote a lot about the Jonas Brothers' music. And I regret nothing. I have written about the Jonas Brothers previously. Also wrote about Kevin . Still working on posts about Joe and Nick. Last week I got an anonymous ask on Tumblr . The ask said: "If you had to make 1 album out of separate Jonas Brothers songs, what would it look like? What would the theme be? What order would you put them in, what kind of story would you tell?" Their first mistake was not giving me a limit to how many songs I could use, but I decided to keep it under 50. I ended up with a list of 41 songs. Being that I cannot be casual about anything, ESPECIALLY Jonas Brothers, I wrote around 100 words about why I love and included each song. Hence why it is almost 4k words. If by some MIRACLE any of the Jonas Brothers come across this post: Hi. How are you? Hope you and the family are doing well. Thank you

Heyo! Happy Monday! First That Time... post of 2024! It's been a while since I wrote one of these. Originally, this was supposed to be a quick random trivia post, but then I started reading about the White House and fell down a rabbit hole and now it's become something completely different. Yes, you read the title correctly. According to Zillow, the White House is worth $397.9 million. It has 132 rooms and 35 bathrooms across 6 levels. It is 55,000 square feet. No wonder it's worth so much. So let's get into the history of this historical presidential mansion. The White House as it stands today George Washington became the first president of the United States in April 1789. Being that he was the first and that the nation was just born, there was no official home of the president just yet. So President Washington occupied the Franklin House - owned by Treasury Commissioner, Samuel Osgood - until February 1790 and then the Alexander Macomb House until August 1790. Both re

Happy New Year! Happy 2024! First of all, I'd like to apologize for disappearing after the Kevin Jonas post. That was NOT my intention. I had blog posts planned for the rest of 2023, but sometimes the mental illness hits and you just have to accept it. I say this at the start of every year, but I DO want to post more. However, this year will be different because I will be patient with myself. I won't beat myself off if I miss a day, or a week, or even a month. The schedule will remain the same: Monday - That Time... Wednesday - Whatever I want Friday - Fangirl Friday I'll be honest, 2024 hasn't started very well for me mentally. I feel like a stretched-out rubber band ready to pop at any moment. But writing has always been therapeutic for me so I am going to use this blog as such. I love researching a new topic for "That Time..." posts. I always learn something new. I love rambling about shows, celebrities, or fictional characters I love. I am not promising th

Heyo! I know that you're probably wondering: how can I have more to say after I wrote 7.6k words about the Jonas Brothers two weeks ago? Besties, that was barely scratching the surface. Now you get to read me ramble about them individually. I just fought a gnarley cold. That is my excuse for not posting in almost 2 weeks. I'm sorry. The subject of this week's Fangirl Friday is the eldest Jonas Brother, Kevin Jonas! His birthday is coming up, so happy birthday Kevin! In case you missed my Fangirl Friday about the Jonas Brothers , I stated that I am a Joe girl, but I had a stint as a Kevin girl from 2011-2015. NOW if you've been living under a rock for the past twenty years and have no idea who Kevin Jonas is, let me introduce you to the ICON. He is the oldest brother and the lead guitarist of the band, Jonas Brothers. He is also a husband, father, former reality star, contractor, app developer, etc. The man has his bases covered and I am a fan. Technically my first impr

Happy Friday! Off the bat, I'm going to come out and say it: this is the longest post I've written. It's about three people who will all get their own separate Fangirl Friday posts inevitably. I have so much to say because these guys have impacted my life so much and for so long. So bear with me. Warning:  I mention my own struggles with depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. (L to R) Kevin, Joe, and Nick Jonas Today's subjects are the Jonas Brothers! This is a long time coming. This is a love I've held for 17 years. I allow myself to ramble on these Fangirl Friday posts, hence why this ended up so long. I apologize for absolutely nothing. I am writing this in the middle of my second Jonas Brothers fixation. I am currently obsessed and I don't mean that lightly. I have been so annoying because I cannot stop talking about them to everyone I know. It's like 2008 all over again. The Jonas Brothers is a band made up of three brothers: Kevin Jonas - Lead gui
