I adopted Genevieve (Titi) at my wits end at the start of the pandemic, I knew I wanted an older cat and she was essentially the first cat I saw when I walked in. She immediately stomped out to greet me, a stiff little grease ball with the baddest brows and whiskers I’d ever seen - obviously I scooped her up. Best $25 I’ve ever spent. Gen has been a constant for 5 of the 6 years I’ve lived in LA. She was the perfect co-host, always dressed in her very finest and kind to every person and animal that walked through the door. I still think Lucille was the best thing that ever happened to her. When I brought Lucille home my dream was that one day they would cuddle, 6 months later it happened and Gen never stopped following her around from that day forward. I’m so grateful to have had this time with sweet Gen, no amount would have been enough. Thank you to those of you who loved her right along with me. I love you, Titi, I hope you have bottomless canned food and lots of sun wherever you might be <3

A lot of people think adopting a senior pet isn’t worth the heartbreak/ limited time but I can assure you it is - and then some💚 thank you @bestfriendsanimalsociety for helping us find each other

I won't be publishing tomorrow, this week's video will be up Saturday (it was filmed before her passing so it might feel strange that it isn't brought up, just wanted to let you know why <3 )

Hi beautiful peeps. Popping in to let ya know that I’m taking this week to do some shooting for our upcoming videos this month :) everything from my move to the wildfires has made me feel extremely behind so I wanna do myself a little favor and get ahead on this stuff! Thank you for your patience, do something nice for yourself today! (I just tried to go for a walk and got completely caught in the rain) but it was still kind of lovely

Hello wonderful people out there,

Due to the current state of our political system, I am not posting a video today, it felt insensitive to the gravity of what is going on. I wasn't sure if maybe it would have been a welcome distraction or if it just felt plain old tone-deaf. So I'm opting to share tomorrow instead (not sure how much of dif that makes but its just what my gut is saying).

I want to extend so much love to all of us who are feeling incredibly fearful, anxious, hopeless in the face of what a second Trump presidency could mean to our lives, our friends and family, and our planet. I see you and I feel it too.

I will always be a safe space for you in any way I can, both online and in the real world. I would encourage you to do the same, continue to call out injustice and speak for those who are not normally heard. I am going to really think of how I can use my platform to create change and educate more people to the issues that we face moving forward to the best of my ability.

It is you all that give me hope in humanity and the future. Please let yourself feel all of the feelings you have today, let yourself grieve and don't put the pressure on yourself to have a solution for how to save the world in 24 hours. We will get through this together, we must maintain hope.
Love you guys. See you tomorrow <3

Hello beautiful peeps, thank you SO MUCH for the incredible list of climate content activists you recommended on my last post. I'm really looking forward to utilizing my platform to hopefully contribute more information, conversation, hope(!!) and action towards mitigating climate change. I tossed this poll up on my IG but I'll put it here too! Let me know what content would be of most interest to you/ you would actually like to watch and see.

Can y'all please drop your favorite environmentally conscious creators? People that cover the climate crisis and policy in a way that is digestible and, dare I say, entertaining? It continues to be a tough subject to get people engaged with but I really want to have more impact in that space. Thank you!!

OKAY you guys hit me with some TRUTHHH on your lazy meals in my last community post... now I'm thinking I should do a video where I try your lazy vegan meals I could rank em based on simplicity, nutritional value, taste! I think there is absolutely a case for lazy meals that have less nutritional value but just hit the spot, and then ones that are healthier but might be less flavorful. Anyyyyyway What do y'all think!?!? LMK what would be fun/ helpful for you. Also feel free to comment any other lazy vegan meals you'd like me to rate! And LMK if you wouldn't want me to use your username when I'm ranking it!
