PrttySweet Distractions

07/02/26 Yes, but what do I get?

Tue, 07 Jul 2026 10:33:40 -0400

It seems that doing something because it's the right thing to do, just because, or out of kindness has fallen out of favor in this instant entitlement society where everything feels transactional and everything has a price. Whatever happened to kindness?

06/30/26 No, is a complete sentence

Tue, 07 Jul 2026 10:32:15 -0400

Though it may not always be the kindest option, no means no. It doesn't mean ask later or ask again in a different way. If you ask me if I want something from the store and I say no, let it stand. If you ask me if you look fat, and I say no, let it stand. While there may be an exception to every rule, no is a complete sentence.

6/25/2026 DREAMS: The Aftermath of Slumber

Tue, 30 Jun 2026 17:37:02 -0400

You're awake, still feeling the fingerprints of last night's dream on your skin. You can't shake it. All morning your head wanders, wondering which reality you're living in. When dreams feel so real, they linger.

6/23/2026 I'm Sorry...But

Tue, 30 Jun 2026 17:34:12 -0400

Sorry, not sorry. I'm sorry you feel that way. I'm sorry, but in my defense...

Apologies Do Not come with disclaimers or explanations. Some apologies aren't looking for accountability, they're looking for absolutions. Why is sincerity so hard to come by when saying, "I'm sorry"?

06/18/2026 People Watching

Mon, 22 Jun 2026 14:54:29 -0400

Grab some popcorn and let's watch. We can't always avoid the crowds or overhearing intimate conversations. There is no expectation of privacy in public after all. Sometimes, creating backstories turn these moments with strangers into living poetry, tickling our funny bones, breaking our hearts, or just pissing us off. Some of us keep our eyes low and can't be bothered. Others, however elevate people watching into an art form.

06/11/2026 Who You Callin' Old?

Mon, 22 Jun 2026 14:52:03 -0400

We take aim at every lazy stereotype about aging and knock them flat. Age is more than a number, it's a mindset. Some people refuse to fade out, slow down, or play the role society assigns them. "Old" isn't synonymous with irrelevant.

06/09/2026 Shut Your Pie Hole

Mon, 22 Jun 2026 14:50:19 -0400

Everybody talks like they know what's best. it's easy to judge others after the fact. Sometimes, we have to know when to keep it to yourself. Just shut your pie hole.

Fri, 05 Jun 2026 13:32:32 -0400

05/2582026 Calgon! Take Me Away!

Mon, 01 Jun 2026 17:26:42 -0400

Sinking into a bubble-filled bathtub where the foam forms tiny crowns and her thoughts float up like little sparkles. Come escape away from the chaos, let it all float away. A little self-care goes a long way.

05/26/2026 The Art of Prostitution: SELLOUT

Wed, 27 May 2026 12:30:43 -0400

It's not always easy to sell yourself. Whether you're an artist or in a job interview, there is an art to making yourself look like the best choice. Is selling yourself limited to job searches, or do we sell/ market ourselves on dating apps, on dates, to one up our siblings. It just may be that success is based on how well versed we are in the Art of Prostitution and what we'd do for money or to get ahead.

05/21/2026 I Am More Than You Believe Me To Be

Wed, 27 May 2026 12:28:06 -0400

05/13/2026 Holy Hell Week: CHASTITY

Tue, 26 May 2026 16:41:45 -0400

In this world of sexual revolution, chastity has lost its favor. But it's more than abstaining from sex. It's about respect and not prioritizing pleasure over responsibility.

Holy Hell Week: KINDNESS

Wed, 13 May 2026 14:28:35 -0400

05/08/2026 Temperance

Mon, 11 May 2026 18:47:06 -0400

Everything in moderation is easier said than done. Trying to tame our gluttonous ways can seem impossible. Apparently, virtues are not as easy as sin.

Mon, 11 May 2026 18:45:20 -0400

Welcome to a PrttySweet Side Peace. This is the accompaniment to the livestream from Holy Hell Week: Temperance.

05/07/2026 In the LIne of Fire

Mon, 11 May 2026 18:38:17 -0400

Sometimes our choices make us feel like we are standing in the line of fire. Your decisions are questioned and picked apart. You start to doubt yourself under the constant scrutiny. Do you stand strong or fall apart?

05/05/2026 Cinco de Mayo: It's Party Time!

Wed, 06 May 2026 07:31:06 -0400

We are celebrating underdogs everywhere! When the Mexican army came out victorious over France, it was so monumental that it's still celebrated today! But tonight isn't about history. It's about celebrating those surprising victories that changed us somehow. We acknowledge and celebrate all those moments we tend to overlook in our own lives, but acknowledge and celebrate in others. So, it's an underdog party.

04/30/26 The Sun is Out, Stop Being S.A.D.

Fri, 01 May 2026 09:33:51 -0400

Seasonal Affective Dusorder can make the Happy Holidays blue. The winter doldrums are real and can weigh heavy on emotions. After a seemingly endless winter, it’s finally spring. The sun is out, the air is fresh and it’s time to let the skies be blue so we can bask in the sun.

04/28/26 I Believe I Can Fly: Knowing Limits

Thu, 30 Apr 2026 15:31:50 -0400

We often get told that dreams do come true and nothing is out of reach. However, everyone has their limits. How impossible does the dream we believe in have to be before it makes us believe that maybe we don't deserve it? Is it better to know your limits and push within reason or to shoot for the stars without a rocket?

04/23/26 Spring Cleaning

Tue, 28 Apr 2026 20:48:16 -0400

It's that time of year when Easter Bunnies give way to dust bunnies and we clear the cobwebs to start fresh in Spring. Whether it's deep cleaning your house or sorting through emotional baggage. Sometimes we need that discard pile, even if it's painful. Letting go of what no longer serves us is good for the soul.

04/21/26 Analysis Paralysis

Wed, 22 Apr 2026 16:17:16 -0400

Sometimes we jump right into the deep end. Other times, we make the lists and think of contingencies. It is way too easy to drown in the what ifs and infinite possibilities. There are times where we think so hard we can't even move lost in the unfortunate truth of analysis paralysis.

O4/17/26 PrttySweet Storytime: School Dances

Sat, 18 Apr 2026 09:35:02 -0400

04/16/26 fire &ICE: Cold and Heartless

Sat, 18 Apr 2026 09:33:16 -0400

We went through passion’s fire. Now, we are chilled to the bone. When love turns cold and kindness turns heartless, that chill ruins deep. Is there ice in your veins, or did you feel the chill in theirs? Tell us all about the cold and heartless.

04/14/2026 FIRE & ice

Wed, 15 Apr 2026 19:46:31 -0400

Turn up the heat in passions’ rising. Bring us from winter to warmth in tactile possibilities. Sensual sensations lead the way as we bring fire to the night.

04/09/26 OCEANS

Fri, 10 Apr 2026 15:36:29 -0400

Floating in an overwhelming sea does it swallow us whole or set us free? For some, water is cleansing. For others, we feel like we're drowning. What ocean do you get lost in?

04/07/2026 Spare Parts

Wed, 08 Apr 2026 21:29:12 -0400

They say the whole is worth more than the sum of it's parts. But sometimes we are broken into pieces, usable or otherwise. They use our joy ripped out at the roots to patch their own. Gutted like a car for parts, how do we rebuild or is it easier to remain in pieces?

04/02/26 Planting Seeds

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 06:55:00 -0400

Between spring gardens and seeds of doubt there's a lot of ground to cover. Fed by rain or tears once the seeds are planted, they tend to grow.

Wed, 01 Apr 2026 01:33:27 -0400

03/26/26 Brd is the Word

Fri, 27 Mar 2026 00:34:33 -0400

We are showcasing spoken word poetry. Gotta love writers with rhythm and flow and enough meaning to make you think or feel or just get lost in the moment

03/24/26 Wish You Were Here...Even Now

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 04:39:23 -0400

Through good times, celebrations, trials, and tribulations, sometimes we yearn to tell the person (or people) we just can't. Distance, time, death, abs broken hearts can leave us with emptiness behind even the most joyful moments. They say it gets better with times but still... I wish you were here... even now.

03/19/26 Between 2 Evils

Tue, 24 Mar 2026 16:08:23 -0400

How you choose between the lesser of two evils means deciding which one carries the least harm. Is it consequences be damned or do you heed the possibility of danger?

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 01:21:22 -0400

Spin a tale of mischief, magic, and mystical mayhem. Highlight the fun and subtle differences between the Imps and Fairies as we celebrate the legends, and lore of all things stirring up chaos around St. Patrick's Day.

03/11/26 Love for Sale

Thu, 12 Mar 2026 00:08:59 -0400

The song says, "can't buy me love". Yet, even affection can seem transactional. Whether it's flowers and candy, jewelry, or a well-timed Slurpee, is it the gift, the intent, or the perception that skews emotion? While it should be the thought that counts and affection should be free, it often seems that the price of the gift can determine the amount of love in gratitude. Is love actually free or is everything, even love, for sale?

03/05/26 Out of Context

Fri, 06 Mar 2026 00:39:40 -0500

It's not what I said, it's what you heard. It’s so easy to get lost in the mix of how well we think we know people, mood, perception, and what is actually being said. Inflection matters as much as words do. In this day of digital communication, it's easy to overlook the intent of a conversation. But even face to face things get lost in translation and words are taken out of context.

03/03/26 Games People Play

Wed, 04 Mar 2026 15:12:29 -0500

We live in an age where being straight forward is a rarity, where people see what they can get and then play innocent when they are called out. Micromanaging interpersonal relationships and weaponizing kindness is becoming the norm. It's an unfortunate truth. Gaslighting is commonplace in the games people play.

02/26/26 1 Step Forward 2 Steps Back

Sun, 01 Mar 2026 20:48:55 -0500

A gripping look at the messy rhythm of growth, where every victory seems to spark a new setback. This show leans into the drama of stumbling, rising, backsliding, and still trying through the chaos. No one ever said the journey would be easy, but growth is always worth it

02/24/26 Sorry NOT Sorry: OWN YOUR TRUTH

Wed, 25 Feb 2026 00:22:54 -0500

We often find ourselves automatically apologizing for the parts of us that may make others uncomfortable. We get torn between expected politeness, undeserved respect, and whatever our truth may be. Though it can be a hard line to walk, we need to accept ourselves and stand tall in our truth with no apologies.

02/19/26 2 out of 3 Ain't Bad

Tue, 24 Feb 2026 00:36:55 -0500

The bittersweet truth that sometimes relationships give us almost everything we want — but the missing piece still hurts. Is it enough? Can it ever be? When you give it all to a person that can't seem to reciprocate in kind, is comfort, companionship, and desire enough or does it just mimic the love that is needed?

02/17/26 Tunnel Vision

Tue, 24 Feb 2026 00:35:00 -0500

Ah, we've all been lost in the tunnel of love. But love isn't the only time the world slips away and we fail to notice the passage of time or the consequences of our hyperfixation. What pulls focus so intensely that we lose sight of anything and everything else. It's hard to come back to the now, when we are lost in tunnel vision.

02/12/26 NICE

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 20:23:10 -0500

We had naughty, now it's time for sweet romance. Champagne and roses, chocolate and strawberries, cuddles and kisses can charge an evening where two people slip into each other’s orbit. Soft teasing, slow smiles, and a chemistry that hums just beneath the surface, it’s romantic. A little daring full of that delicious tension that makes every touch feel like a promise.

02/10/26 NAUGHTY

Wed, 11 Feb 2026 14:49:12 -0500

Love is in the air, so let's make it good. Tonight we bathe in the pleasures of the flesh. The sights, sounds, smells, and all the sensations being naughty offers. No guilt with all the pleasures.

02/05/26 On the Fringe of Insanity

Sat, 07 Feb 2026 10:46:38 -0500

I’m losing my mind, or at least it feels that way. Are you with me on the platform for the crazy train waiting to be taken to the looney bin. When did the world and the people in it stop making sense? Maybe I am teetering on the brink of insanity, I can be the only one.

02/03/26 Go Find Less

Thu, 05 Feb 2026 02:09:32 -0500

Emotions aren't drama; They're feelings. If you've been made to feel like you're too melodramatic, too triggered, too emotional... just too much, tell them GO FIND LESS. Elyse Meyers, who is fabulous btw, often says, 'If you think I'm too much, go find less'. If you feel that in that in your bones, tell us all about it. you are NOT alone.

01/29/26 PHOBIAS

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 18:30:08 -0500

Acrophobia (heights), claustrophobia (enclosed spaces), hydrophobia (water) there is a long list of intense and persistent fears or phobias. Are you arrays of spiders, germs, falling? Peruse the interwebs and find out if your greatest fears have a name, and tell us all about it.

01/27/26 The Beast Within

Wed, 28 Jan 2026 03:29:22 -0500

We are all capable of a beast under the right circumstances. We can spew vitriol in a heartbeat, with the right trigger. What triggers that inner beast to immerge? Can it be tamed? Can we ever heal the damage it does? If you wake the Beast, do you deserve what you get for poking the bear?

01/22/26 What's IN Your Mind: WHIMSICAL THOUGHTS

Fri, 23 Jan 2026 12:14:58 -0500

Part 2 of the series, What's IN Your Mind. We shared time with our shadows, now it's time to embrace the light. We all have those little things that make us smile, even when we think we aren't able. Let's embrace those nuances that make us believe dreams come true. Often times, it's easier to sit with our demons, it's comfortable. Let's get out of the shadows and recognize the thoughts that motivate us, elevate us, and make us want to smile just because.

01/20/26 What's IN Your Mind: DARK THOUGHTS

Wed, 21 Jan 2026 11:34:56 -0500

This week is a two-part series called, What's IN Your Mind. First comes the darkness. When we feel like our own thoughts are our enemies: negative self-talk, fears, the voices in the shadows, at times they haunt us all. Whether it's mistakes we've made, all the useless what-ifs, or paralyzing comparisons in unfortunate shoulds', tell us all about those dark and shadowy places that keep you up at night.

01/15/26 Spirit of the Animal

Mon, 19 Jan 2026 10:59:03 -0500

Whether it’s a favorite pet, an animal you relate to, respect for wildlife in general, or the animal within, it is all about how they enhance or change our lives.

Celebrating the life love and spirit of our pets. The bonds of friendship in the comfort the gave us. The laughter they ignited. The secrets they kept, and the tears they licked away.

01/13/26 To Thine Own Self Be True

Thu, 15 Jan 2026 06:03:53 -0500

Oftentimes, people become who they perceive others need them to be. It's easy, too easy, to lose ourselves in the needs of others, with no regard for our own needs. Let us work towards finding a truth that let us be who we are while also being there for our loved ones. That balance isn't easy. It disrupts the status quo. Do we stay as expected to appease others, or do we embrace our own nature, even if that means losing people? Can we find an honest balance?

Smile Though Your Heart Is Breaking

Fri, 09 Jan 2026 21:37:40 -0500

We have all dealt with pain that we don't always wear on our sleeves. We paint on a smile to not burden others with our reality. It's never an easy feat. Why do we so readily listen to the pain of others and never think it a burden, yet we find it hard to share because we don't want to burden others? How many times do we suffer in silence to not inconvenience those around us or is that just an excuse to hold it in so we don't fall apart?

I'm Over It

Wed, 07 Jan 2026 10:07:09 -0500

Ever want to drop that baggage you’re carrying? I’m over the craziness of the Holiday season, over the hoopla of New Years. It’s another day in the grind. Let’s leave it all behind instead of letting it all bog us down. Let’s just declare: I’m over it!

12/30/25 RESOLUTE, RESOLUTIONS, OR JUST HAPPY NEW ANUS

12/18/25 Holiday Blues

Sat, 20 Dec 2025 04:39:47 -0500

Season’s Greetings can weigh us down with unreasonable expectations of a jovial outlook. Sometimes, we get lost in the ghosts of holidays past and miss traditions that fell out of favor or the people we don’t get to see. Maybe it’s the gray skies and cold, unforgiving air that hurts to breathe that makes us want to burrito blanket binge watch until it’s all over and it’s a whole new year.

22/16/25 The GALVANIZATION of Words

Wed, 17 Dec 2025 00:03:09 -0500

From rust-free nipples, to Frankenstein, to pacemakers galvanization shocks things to life or makes them stronger. Words can do both. They can change perspective or perception. They can incite action or upbraid us into complacency. A powerful tool used to educate and nurture, words are easily weaponized. Whether they have calmed anger, fought for injustice, crushed hope, or made you believe in the impossible words are powerful. Tonight they are galvanized.

12/11/25 Bells, Balls, and some Hard Wood

Mon, 15 Dec 2025 04:29:50 -0500

Smooth shiny baubles abound. The sound of jingle bells is all around. A big strong fir or some logs on the fire, tells us what do these holiday icons inspire?

Naughty or nice, tell us all about those bells, balls, and some hard wood.

12/09/25 The Feeling of a Season

Thu, 11 Dec 2025 15:39:05 -0500

The pie isn’t quite the same. The holidays seem a bit more hollow when there is an empty seat. What is it like in the aftermath of what is left behind?

Wed, 26 Nov 2025 10:16:34 -0500

Are you ever the optimist? Perhaps it’s easier to see the darker side of things? Maybe, you just like to stir things up or get by with the bare minimum.

10/30/25 Hell Week: WRATH

Mon, 03 Nov 2025 16:33:23 -0500

It boils from the depths of our being, welling up and spewing forth in hateful vengeance. The urge to wreak painful havoc can be overwhelming and, at times, well deserved. Did wrath breed wrath. Is retaliation always justified? Shall we strike in preemptive and angered fortitude? What would your wrath look like unfettered? Release the kraken of your mind and call your wrath by name.

(bonus outro song also by Nightowl)

Avarice, when more is never enough. It's good to want things. However, when we want all the things it's bad? Can there really be too much of a good thing? I want an Oompa Loompa, NOW! Can we want all the things and still be humble? The world is not enough!
