Lots of these at Shambhala (thanks Amy!)
Hey there. I'm Ariel Meadow Stallings, a native Seattleite who's written my way up and down the Left Coast. Electrolicious is where I post daily randomata, but I also write for a living. My first book, Offbeat Bride, was published last year.

Haha, Halcyon (of cockybastard.com) is totally one of these!

Is he for real? Seriously. A “lifestyle artist”? Hugnation.com? Could he be any more pretentious? I just look at him and think “rich, entitled TOOL” (but with really good drugs).

Oh, Halcyon! I’ve known him for years. I’m not sure if he qualifies as a trustacock, however, as he supports himself — last I heard he was doing marketing in the adult industry.

yeah, i actually don’t think too many of the …trustacocks… are being totally supported by their families or trust funds. most of them that i know earn money in various non-traditional ways, but just prefer to spend that money on custom leather and circus classes (and substances) instead of on “normal” things like food and rent. which explains why they’re a) so hot and b) so cliquey: they all live together in communal spaces and don’t eat and sit around working on costumes together. it’s a lifestyle, not just a look.
