Howdy y’all! Figured I oughta pin a post to get acquainted.
My name’s Caleb, but you can call me dad. 🤠
Tumblr media
Leatherworker, writer, musician, and notorious homosexual.
If you wanna talk to me, my DMs and ask box are always open! Always love when y’all reach out. Not sure how to break the ice? Ask what projects I’m working on, or what song I’ve got on repeat.
I use tags to organize my posts, and you can take a gander at the archive if you want to see more of something particular. These are a few tags you’ll run into the most:
#we've always been around is all my queer shit. Being queer ain’t new, after all — we’ve always been here.
#all good things are wild and free is for all the wild places that make me feel most at home. I’d rather be out there than anywhere else, and these remind me that the world is much bigger than the daily grind.
#life in color is all about Black history, Black joy, Black struggle, and most importantly, the richness and diversity of Black lives.
#lubbock texas is where you’ll find all my horny-on-main posts; it’s been a small way that I’ve worked through/continue to work through my repressive fundamentalist growing-up years. It comes from an old Butch Hancock quote that says “Life in Lubbock, Texas, taught me two things: One is that God loves you and you're going to burn in Hell. The other is that sex is the most awful, filthy thing on Earth and you should save it for someone you love.” If you wanna know what cranks my engine, just take a look at this tag. (May or may not have an alt that’s a little more down and dirty. My DMs are open, boys.)
#me is all the pictures of my ugly mug. It’s also where you’ll find all my thirst traps.
#answered asks is pretty self-explanatory. You submit an anonymous ask and wanna see if I answered it? You’ll find it here.
#personal as hell is a cutaway cross-section of how my brain works, the things that matter most to me, or the things that felt like they were written specifically for me about my life.
#death is all the things that remind me how very very short and how very very precious our time here is. Everybody we love will die, and none of us get out of this world alive. These are little reminders to live a good life, and hopes to die a good death.
#dog bless america is all about man’s best friends and most trusty partners.
#chairman meow is for the other guys — cats are a harder sell on the utility of man in their lives, sure, but none of ‘em ever showed the cops where your weed’s at.
#misuse of religion is a catch-all for religion in general, but more often about the suffering and joy and home I was made to bear in Christianity. It’s been a way for me to make peace with my past and the fundamentalism I was raised in. It helps me engage with the faith I left, and reinterpret the 23 years I spent with my life centered around a Jesus I don’t believe in anymore.
#cowboys and #all the pretty little horses because y’all know what I’m about.
#pov: i’m telling you what a good boy you are is for when you need a father figure to help work out your daddy issues.

Sarfo Emmanuel Annor: Life in Color
This series celebrates colour and charts the rise of a contemporary Africa through photography. By portraying young children from Koforidua, Life in Color celebrates the demographic importance of African youth and its power to shape the continent’s future. Sarfo expresses his vision of the African story through the lens of his iPhone. He believes we are more emotionally connected to colour than we think. While his portraits and the contrast between backgrounds and black skin transmit positive emotions, they also reveal socio-economic issues in Ghana

Seeing Colors
We gaze out at a vast and ever changing kaleidoscope-life in color-everyday day. From the filmy pastels of a dream disappearing to the loud shocks of traffic lights, billboards, and fashion, color saturates our existence. Not only is color everywhere around us, but it is also in our minds and imaginations as well, an internal rainbow of appearance.
Color moves and motivates. Color clams and quiets. Color sings, color dances, colors takes center stage in the theater of our lives. It is so woven into the fabric of our speech, vision, choice and circumstance that we rarely stop to pay attention. Think about how hazy blue of every morning street fog compares with the clear blue of a summer sky; how a still lake surface, despite all logic, takes on the orange of the setting sun; how green dapples and drenches our world, from the tiny new leaves of wildflowers underfoot to the electric nighttime swaths of the northern lights overhead. Realize how red makes a statement - sometimes it whispers, like the spotted carapace of tiny lady bug; sometimes it flaunts itself, like bright lipstick on a proud woman’s smile.
Photographers do notice. The make a business of noticing. In the litany of principles that make a great photograph, color stands neat the top of the list, at the service of both content and design. A photographer may look for color with care and attention, or color may burst on the scene as a serendipitous surprise. Either way, it stands as a primary character in many a great photograph.

sure, "I'm part of this marginalized group that I'm writing about" isn't a get out of jail free card for all bigotry, but if someone says "I'm portraying an exact experience I've had, this literally happened to me" and your response is "okayyy but think of the optics of showing that that happens? maybe keep that to yourself?" it might be time to reconsider your approach.

As I've been wandering through the world today, I wondered...
Have the trees always been this green? Has the sun always been shining like this?
I've been in the void for so long. Seeing the colours of life shine so brightly, I feel so sad.
Sad about what I must've missed.
