I can’t believe our fearless leader, our Patrón has left us. I know losing Peach literally broke your heart. I first met you at your first New York show at Webster Hall in 2010. My first time seeing you live although your voice had been screaming obscenities in my ears since I was a teenager. I jumped on stage and grabbed the mic and you didn’t kick me off. That was one of the happiest days of my life. I think it was fate that years later I would have some of the best moments in my life sharing a stage with you. You named me and encouraged me to be the voice of angry and strong brown women around the world, covered head to toe and screaming my face off for justice and for that I’ll always be grateful. Thank you for letting me be a small part of such a huge and important thing. So many years together. So many adventures. So many ridiculous stories that no one could, would, or should ever believe and never a moment of static between us. I will miss you very dearly big brother. And now my heart is fully broken too. Also, you broke rule number one- No dying on tour!!! But you were never much for rules. Say hi to Peach for me and rest well. ¡Gracias Juan Brujo! Hasta la próxima. Vaya sin miedo. -La Bruja Encabronada 💔

Tack Norrland vänner och familj. Vi hade en så trevlig och god jul att se er alla. Vi ses nästa gång 🇸🇪🎄🔥🍾
Ha partido hacia el Panteón, el mero mero, el más chingón, ¡Juan Brujo! Y ahora, ¿quién nos va a cuidar? It is with deep sadness we have to announce that our leader Juan Brujo has passed away today. Juan suffered a heart attack on early Monday morning, after a day off from the current Mexorcista tour in Saint Clairsville, Ohio. He was rushed to the nearest hospital in Wheeling, West Viriginia by emergency services, but, despite the medical team’s greatest efforts, he died this morning. His family, friends and bandmates are devastated and wish to mourn in private, while they appreciate the fans’ love and support. Es con profundo dolor que debemos anunciar la partida de nuestro líder Juan Brujo en el día de hoy. Juan sufrió un ataque al corazón en la madrugada de este lunes, después de un día libre de la actual gira Mexorcista en Saint Clairsville, Ohio. Rápidamente fue llevado al hospital más cercano en Wheeling, West Virginia por los servicios de emergencia, pero, a pesar de los grandes esfuerzos del equipo médico, falleció esta mañana. Su familia, amigos y compañeros de banda están devastados y desean llevar su luto en privado, agradeciendo el cariño y apoyo de los fans. El Brujo ha muerto, ¡que viva el Brujo!

Year 20. This year has been hard. Really really hard. There was so much loss. So many loved ones gone one after the other. I am so sad to be away from home but thankful for the technology that’s can transport me thousands of miles away so that I may pay homage to my miracle of a teacher. Right now, many of his students and admirers are gathering at Rashi Gempil Ling Temple offering 1,000 lights to honor my teacher, my root guru H.E. Sera Mey Khensur Lobsang Tharchin Rinpoche which marks the 20th year of his passing. There is not a day that goes by when I think of you and tears do not roll down my cheeks. Not because of sadness but because of the overwhelming gratitude I have knowing just how lucky I was that a real life angel came and took me under his wing and showed me what unconditional (and very tough) love can do. A master in every way, who could break your heart wide open and live in there forever. 💎

The @metalinjection holiday party was a blast as always….. Much love to @frankinjection and crew for dragging me out of the house. So thankful for every single person I got to talk to and hug. Much needed medicine for a rough year. Thanks Jimmy @duffsbrooklyn for your hospitality. This is definitely a night that goes in the stories. Literally check the stories.
I can’t get over how gloriously magical @thecrusher007 is🔥 Jessica wears our starlight quartz centerpiece and emerald and ruby kundalini rings (symbolic of @cynthiaerivo 💚💚 and @arianagrande 💗💗) at the @wickedmovie private event in NYC. This particular quartz is extra special not only because of the water-clear, high grade quality- it is also SELF HEALED. “Sometimes Quartz that has broken from its place of formation, through tectonic movement or extreme temperature changes, can ‘heal’ itself in the right conditions. Self healing or Re-healing is when the Quartz continues forming over the fractured section of the crystal to form new faces and terminations.” #jessicapimentel #cynthiaerivo #arianagrande #wicked #wickedmovie

No matter what time I go to bed, I wake up at the same time every year on this day. I don’t want to talk about it but it always pours out anyway. I woke up crying. Like I do every year. The body never forgets. This is not just “a day” for us New Yorkers. It was the rest of our lives. It was the begining of life with a literal and metaphorical hole in our city and a hole in hearts. Praying, wishing, searching, hoping and digging for hours, days, weeks, months, (some for years) for our loved ones, many of whom would never come home. Family, friends, co-workers, acquaintances, even people we didn’t even like that much became the only focus And we had to put all our differences aside to find them. That beautiful beautiful sunrise that I somehow managed to catch that morning. That first phone call filled with panic and fear after the first plane. The smell. The smoke. The sweaty, stunned looks on the sooted faces of those who were able to walk away. The fighter planes sweeping back and forth rattling the windows for days. The twinkling of all the glass shards hanging in the sky reflecting that bright clear blue sky as the buildings collapsed. The screams of the lady in front of me when the buildings collapsed realizing she’d never see her son again. The sound the phones would blare out then we tried to make a call to friends and family to see if they were okay. To tell them we were still alive. And the neverending grief that would trail behind us for the rest of our lives. I am happy there are some clouds out today. Clear blue skies still hurt. They say “Never Forget”. As if we ever could.
Take a deep breath. Everything is going to be alright.
I had the absolute pleasure of catching one of my faves @tombini In previews for his new show Eureka Day. What a treat! The entire cast was brilliant. I went in completely blind and I don’t want to give away too much but let’s just say this takes place in a time where we all became scientists and zoom became a household word. Really smart and very relevant And so so stressful! It gave me agita. With all arguments presented very well and thoughtfully including a boomer who I lovingly wanted to strangle at times, It was so good. Very entertaining very funny and Thomas shines! Everybody please congratulate him for making his Broadway debut as Eureka Day opens tonight!!!! 👍💻💉🎭
I will never rest until the whole world has one reaction to seeing this image. It either means one of two things. It is sibling day or it is the king @sheprock25 birthday. So please everyone help me wish my brother a happy happy birthday. I know this post is late because we are out here having a good time. 🤘🏽
As a kid playing violin in an orchestra I was always jealous of the cello section. I thought they always had the coolest parts. Last week I treated myself to a cello bow from @rockscoolbrooklyn. I haven’t touched a cello in at least 7 years. I am not a cellist and I have never taken a lesson cellery, but today I felt moved to play. I think it’s important in social media that we get away from always showing perfection and celebrate the process which sometimes includes wrong notes and stank face. Thank you Mr Leviton for teaching me that it is always better to play with conviction.
Instagram made this video for me. The roses are white but they slapped on a little blush filter and picked the music. I’m not mad about it. The roses look even more beautiful than two days ago. Life is short and precious. These flowers will die. So will I. #stopandsmelltheroses
Although I haven’t recovered my sense of smell fully or properly (most nice things still smell putrid), I can somehow finally smell roses again. These stunned me and almost knocked me over at CVS. Who knew CVS had roses? 17 beautiful roses for $20. I had to rescue them. Although I’m suffering in some kind of sinus allergy hell, I can still smell these. Arranged them as an offering. May our hearts be open. OM AH HUM.
