Had a dream that Pete Buttigieg had divorced Chasten, and he and I were dating as he was soft launching his run for President in Iowa, alongside the comedian Zach Zimmerman, who was writing his jokes. Very gay and straight at the same time!

Gotta say: being a poet, sharing poems, etc: amazing feeling. Being a ‘’musician”, “releasing” music, begging for clicks? embarrassing. cringe. the height of shame. Anyway, I have a new song, streaming everywhere ffm.to/loveliesss

MAGA is, of course, awful. But they didn’t come to power in a vacuum. Remember what they did to Bernie? Remember when we had an actual vision for this country and they gave us Biden instead? It’s an inconvenient truth for a lot of people— that Trumpism could have been avoided but the Dems’ dithering

A twangy, dreamy hookiness takes hold “Love Lies,” a single out today from Caleb Nichols. An affecting vocal presence, reminding at points of Elliott Smith, moves with deep entrancement alongside the atmospheric rock and psych-pop swirling. www.obscuresound.com/2025/02/cale...

The National Park Service eliminated references to transgender people from its Stonewall National Monument web page, removing the “T” in references to LGBTQ+ on the official site for the Greenwich Village monument, which marks a milestone in the fight for gay rights.

This novel is so queer-coded. Is it the fantasy of a straight woman? What’s happening here? I don’t know anything about Sally Rooney. But I know this book reads almost like fan fiction that ships 2 male characters, but then someone did a find and replace and changed the queer male character’s name.
