When I was new to the board and going under a different username, I would lurk the gay threads (as they were called at the time) sheepishly waiting for a point where I could jump in to what was observably a tight-knit group. When I finally got up the nerve to post, Morbs responded with a delightfully raunchy greeting, complete with an image that I'm sure tested some community guidelines. I'll always remember that.

I’ve basically just been working a lot from home and then not from home and now from home again and living in queerantine and interacting mostly with my cat.can’t tell if I’m being overcautious but diabetes and COVID aren’t something one wants to mix together so even though I miss hanging out with queers and friends and am more constantly conscious of how single I am than I’ve been in years, it’s probably for the best. but whenever this is over the stir crazy self isolation might finally prompt me to start dating again after avoiding it for way too long.

The odd thing that I loved about Morbs, and I told Stevie abt it over text was that it seemed as if he was always, always pulling the hottest men, even when he was starting to get sick he was still getting some

[Edited out anything negative I was feeling and typing] I made really nice vegetarian sausage-pepper tagliatelle for a dude I've been seeing, he is having a really hard sad day so I told him a funny joke. Here's the joke:
Man 1: Hey, guess what I have in my pocketMan 2: Nah I don't wanna play this gameMan 1: Oh come on, I'll give you a hint, it begins with the letter NMan 2: Hm. Let me think. Is it a napple?Man 1: No, it's not a nappleMan 2: Is it a norange?Man 1: No, not a norange, eitherMan 2: OK, hmm... is it a nonion?Man 1: Nope, wrong againMan 2: Well, I'm just never gonna guess it. What is it?Man 1: It's a negg

I did finally take a night off tonight and watched that new gay live-streaming play that people on Twitter have been all atwitter about? CIRCLE JERK? It was funny and good, I think, but I might need to see it again to fully wrap my head around what its final thoughts were about what it was satirizing. A lot of references that went over my head because I’m not online enough but it didn’t impede my ability to enjoy it and it was very gay.

I guess my new goal is sometime in 2021 for both seeing friends and meeting guys. Hopefully we don’t need to keep this up until 2022 because by then I may be expecting my cat to answer me instead of just talking to it.

All of my single friends irl found people on dating websites within a few weeks of lockdown, quarantined appropriately, then moved in with those people. Not advisable, necessarily, but I thought it interesting.

idk if I have mentioned this (probably?) but the incredibly silly and fun shoestring-budget drag queen slasher that my boyfriend's film festival programmed is screening online again and it keeps winning awards at every festival it plays at and even got an AV Club writeup, it's really fun and you should all see it

I've had more/better sex this year than ever, in my life, tbh.
It's hard to describe what I'm about to describe. I think COVID has created in people-who-aren't-having-sex an immense resentment toward people-who-are-having-it. Meanwhile, people-who-are-having-sex are beset with the same universal awful anxieties that COVID is creating-- loneliness, financial precarity, loss of family members, etc-- and so the sex-havers and looking at the no-sex-havers and saying "guys getting some dick on the daily is really only marginally improving my terrible year"

Ooooooooh. Lol. I’m totally into that fantasy. I am in a similar fantasy with the romance that found me in Virginia. A good friend of one of my oldest friends, and the feeling like, he was meant to be there when I was there because I needed his energy. We all got drunk on the phone last night, I got major butterflies and probably sounded like a total ass. I want to see him again soon but I don’t want to act a fool. 😮✨🦋🧜♀️💕🧤🍀☃️❄️☂️🍕🎧🧩✈️
Also I get my passport soon and I want to plan a trip to Aruba. All by my fucking self. Thoughts?

The idea of travelling is so distant for me right now

My husband and I are now just starting to talk about maybe taking a plane to California in March or April. Even that seems too soon.

i flew home and back recently... honestly i found it fine. i would recommend an airline like delta that doesn't sell middle seats and booking a seat in the back of the plane. also getting tested before you leave and a few days after you land. states like new york that aggressively track travelers coming in from certain states haven't (to my knowledge) traced outbreaks back to flying, tho it's still reliant on self-reporting of symptoms, tests, self-quarantining etc. if you/ppl close to you aren't at increased risk and mentally the idea of flying feels doable, i think you can feel ok about it.
