New Speedo 🤪⛱️
🕑 Added 2025-04-25 18:17:49 +0000 UTCHey guys! With Bearland just a week away, let's check out this new speedo I got a few months ago 🤪⛱️
I got them at a store in Puerto Vallarta during my short stay for Beefdip this year. They have a peculiar tone, between gold and skin, and I've used them before with the rhinestone caftan Joselo made for me for the disco night party.
Yesterday was another day I would rather forget. To make a long story short: YouTube used the excuse that I didn't answer their emails last year (while I was recovering from cancer surgery) to kick us off as a record label. This is a disaster, but I'm not the only one who's had this problem, many other LGBTQ+ creators and businesses have been treated the same way by Google since 2017. They will use any excuse to shut us down.
I've been able to get through this before, but this time I really was in bed for two months, and even sending them evidence didn't matter. It's a terrible and difficult situation, because apart from the loss of income, we won't be able to defend ourselves against piracy or people using our content for (for example) fat-phobic or homophobic content.
I'm considering deleting everything and focusing on other platforms, but that's a bad headspace to be in, not something I need right now, so I've decided to give myself until Monday to decide. Willam (from RPDR) comes to mind, he took everything away from them when he was faced with a similar situation.
I don't know, it's a mess.
I hope your week was better, have a nice Friday 😘 ❤️

Oh you're going to see The Baron...oh nice...very nice. Wish I could be there. Just so much going on right now, getting my alcoholic nephew back on track and Viola has surgery on her ankle scheduled in a few weeks.

I’ll see Jeremy next week and I’ll borrow at least one for pics hehe 😈 about YouTube. The problem is that if I stay, they win as well, because they will be profiting from all my stuff and using it against our community. Anyways, I will not decide until Monday. 😘😘❤️❤️

Speedo looks amazing, but I thought we agreed you would get some metallic speedos from J-Mo. As far as YouTube goes, if you walk away they win. You're a gifted, amazing artists some people might only be able to access your incredible music via YouTube. We love you , you bring so much joy to the world. Stay strong, you will beat this.
