We hung out with our queer friends yesterday! One just had a hysterectomy so we brought him coffee and snacks and an edible, and we sat around and watched our dogs act like idiots while chatting like maniacs. It was great.

My partner and I went to see Eternals on Saturday and then took a stroll through Rowes Wharf just in time to see a drunk bachelorette fall into Boston Harbor trying to recreate the "I'M KING OF THE WORLD" scene from Titanic. We then helped fish her out. It was wild.

That reminds me we have to help our friend Jim retrieve his dead father's Zippo, which is down in a ditch below a tall bridge and difficult to access. He dropped it and it fell through the bridge sidewalk, one of those very intense grated metal things.

obviously the bachelorette thing is not funny but i mean, it's also really funny.

It was all a bit too much for one of our number, who, several drinks in, suggested that we all get our cocks out. Talk about misreading the room. The he spent the rest of the weekend messaging around: “I’m so sorry if I offended anyone”. Ah, bless.

I mean, everyone came out the other end okay so I feel only a little guilty about how I keep cackling every time I think about it

finally rescheduling my second date with Danny, costume designer. first date was him plying me with beers, which I had no problem with. he suggested drinks for round 2, I guess that's fine? I feel like in straight land round 2 is always dinner

a friend of mine (ahem) works at a government agency. he was in the office early on a monday morning, and the director of said agency, also known to come in early, came by the cubicle for a visit. the first words out of this director's mouth were "did you see adele last night? *gasp* *swanning*".
in a video meeting a few weeks ago, the director was talking about the mission of the agency, and referenced the words of a practioner from long ago, which were, i shit you not, "as (professionals), we are riding the horns of uncertainty." my friend responded, "and we ride the horns that we're dealt," and the director burst out laughing. everyone else looked uncomfortable.
the director has shown my friend photos of his grandkids, and is mormon of course. either closeted or on a down-low arrangement, right?
― Linda and Jodie Rocco (map), Thursday, 18 November 2021 00:13 (two years ago) link
he is a closeted married gay guy
― Dan S, Thursday, 18 November 2021 00:24 (two years ago) link
there are many of them
― Dan S, Thursday, 18 November 2021 00:25 (two years ago) link
true
― Linda and Jodie Rocco (map), Thursday, 18 November 2021 00:27 (two years ago) link
my friend was delighted at first that he could "tell" but now he just wants to keep his distance. he is pretty sure there are some closeted lesbians at his workplace too.

Question for the U.S. folk:
Was ABBA a gay thing in America before "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert"?
I figure it was an Australian and probably European thing, but then American straight people saw the movie and assumed it was a thing here too.

I don't know, tho Levan never played them at the Paradise Garage, according to this list: https://x.facebook.com/housemastersmusic/photos/a.160929651951502/413817093329422/?type=3&source=48

I say this as someone who has come around quite a bit on ABBA and would even call "The Winner Takes It All" an A+ pop song ... good for Larry.
― Milm & Foovies (Eric H.), Thursday, 18 November 2021 19:22 (two years ago) link
I love ABBA.

And I agree with you, Eric.
Can't fight the feelin'

Apparently, that list is hogwash and there's been some minor kerfuffle about it, from former PG DJs and party attendees!

you know j0rdy i was thinking of u today - of your reaction once when i commented on something. it was very trivial but I have an emotional memory and it made me happy so I remember it. I'd rather not go into the details so as not to spoil the magic of the moment but just know that you left an impression!

It's fun! Exhausting too. The guy I've been fooling around with gets miffed if like a normal person I determine the texting must end. He's also in his early twenties.

Well, I went to the Guggenheim with one of my oldest friends, we took a nice walk, then I went to Artists Space for a poetry reading, had an amazing dinner with friends in Chinatown, then another poetry reading at LOMEX, then a long long train ride to the Rockaways to stay with another old friend and her elderly dog (who is dying and whom I've known since she was a puppy). We had a lovely if bittersweet time. Then I left the Rockaways after a walk around Ft. Tilden and brunch, took the A straight to Penn Station and came back to Philly. All told, I was in New York for 27 hours and fit quite a lot in. I also managed to not get stinking drunk, a first for me in New York lol.

Stevie, I have a number of friends who went through a mid-30s rave period. I think I just partied so hard from 18-32 that I don't have the stamina any more-- I don't even get to midnight on New Years Eve, tbh.
Also,.hi!
― we need outrage! we need dicks!! (the table is the table), Friday, 11 March 2022 17:12 (two years ago) link
Yeah, my rave period started when I was 32 and was basically over when I was 38. Happy days. Well, happy weekends at least.

and stevie!!!! honey I love that you're going out a bunch and healing. I've been there and you're doing the right thing. I've just now weirdly gotten to a stage in my life where I realize how much I love to dance. I need to go out dancing. I've been dominating a life situation for a number of months now so I'm sober as a judge but I have a nice stash on deck.
