Literally just quoted QTs verse to my friend after we collectively couldn’t recall General Lee’s name and can’t stop cracking up after showing them this clip for the first time and realizing how it’s aged perfectly and also could’ve only been done in 1999
Gonna privilege check myself right now and thank my Gay Black mentors/Uncles: Essex, Assotto, Blackberri, Sterling, Charles, Sylvester, James, Eric for giving my baby gay + trans youth self the wisdom I needed to make it past calendar ages some never saw
One of my fave solo lunch perches in SF for the last 30 years has been this particular bench in the Panhandle. I used to come here between doctors visits/counseling for homophobic bullies and classes at Grattan. I stopped here today to pen a piece about how bizarre it is to be cruising as an immunocompromised survivor of both the lost gay generation and millennial one...never written about being a pediatric azt guinea pig but here we are since everyone my age refuses barriers because big daddy pharma doles out PrEP like a pez dispenser
I was hanging heavy with a trio of Lebanese sisters + an Iranian bear when this dropped and even though they all got the ick from the use of “A-Rab” we played this song tf oooooout

Being right years ahead of others isn’t nearly as satisfying as people think. Nobody apologizes for treating you like a crazy. They just come back years later, repeating what you told them as if it’s some groundbreaking revelation because they finally heard it from someone else.
