  • Go to the mall, find a sunglasses stand. Try on polarized sunglasses until you find something you like under $12 or so.

    You’ll find the brand/model number written somewhere on the frame. Google it, and find someplace to buy them by the case.

    By a case of 10, put it in your drawer. Bonus points for getting it in another color (I have a set of white frame chunky glasses, but also the exact same model in black for fancy occasions).

    Now you have sunglasses you can afford to lose constantly, a backup supply, and a signature look.









  • I am working to build queer community in my Southern red state. It’s hard, and everyone wants more from me than I can deliver. Trying to help a volunteer write a grant proposal. Trying to keep my shit together. Trying to move a thousand small boulders up a thousand small hills.

    I do feel valued when I see my son, and he comes running up to me, and gives me a huge hug, which will happen tonight.

    But I am also terribly lonely, and it’s the kind where plenty of people are around me, but I am still lonely, because I am not able to be open and authentic to them. They want a leader . Being vulnerable has caused problems with that.

    Every once in a while I can buy a bag of weed and then, for a while, none of it matters and I can just roll the boulders all day.
