tsk tsk, buying into "straight-acting" even in jest, report to my lecture on Monday morning

Tonight is the first of four weddings I am subjected to this year. TONS of straight people dancing to Bizarre Inc. Fulfills my EVERY need.

R1ch Juzw14k just told me I had fantastic taste on twitter and I am like totally starstruck.

Donna Rouge, sorry to keep bugging you about ILM stuff on this thread, but the ABBA poll is due up in a day or two.

Un, they seriously want us to click through 100 pages? For real?

*throws vase and storms out of thread*

donna, i was actually wondering the other day, "when is donna rouge gonna come and visit." but alas, i am out of town for most of may :-(

i mean june. june. *sleepy*

also in other news, i'll be on the east coast in july. let's hang.

bummerz :/

we are going to joshua tree for memorial day wknd, and booked an integratron visit. i am STOKED

that went well -- a couple drinks apiece, mild cuddling at his place. After last Friday's somewhat erratic meeting much better than expected.

Thrift store I volunteer at has repriced the dollar-bin Donna Summer records at like $8-$10 today. Is this despicable/should I say something?

I mean it's an AIDS-charity shop so

i think SIDS-charity gives them carte blanche

sudden infant death syndrome

AIDS, whatever

What are you, a Communist?

yeah i mean if it's a worthy charity then i wouldn't fault them for it, it's not like donna summer LPs are a rare commodity and if they can squeeze a little more out of the spike in demand then fair is fair. people paying $10 for a dollar record are suckers anyway, and if they cared about Donna Summer on vinyl then they'd already own it. Think of it as a poseur tax.

Almost all the comments on gay blogs focus on the comments she made about AIDS. :(

Sorry, the comments she "allegedly" made.

i mean, i understand your reaction but the primary function of a charity thrift store is to generate income from donated goods, right? it probably feels icky to profit on the death of a musician, tho, i get that. *shrug*

xp

How long ago did Donna Summer die?

Like 32 or 33 hours ago maybe?

Oh duh that makes sense.

Things I learned today:

- Donna Summer is dead (though I didn't know that she wasn't dead before)
- Donna Summer was African-American. I realized that I have always conflated her with Suzanne Somers!

Jesse you are starting to serve Tuomasian realness all up in here.

:D

Br3nt and I saw Dina Martina last night and I was fucking crying with laughter throughout, she is amazing

Like I don't really go for drag performance much but she's kind of next level

Jealous!

I read those posts from the bottom up and as soon as I saw "Like I don't even like drag etc etc" I was like "oh I bet he saw Dina Martina"

Also: the Croat and I just finished our second meeting. We cuddled last week and had dinner tonight (I had to pick up a friend at the airport). He's exceeded expectations both times. I know he likes me already but the Old Hesitation kicks in, demanding I keep him at a distance.

just found out one of my favorite gay bars here (and where we ended up last night) is closing in a month >:(

Oil Can Harry's?

actually probably shouldn't say which because i don't think it's officially been announced yet, but no, not OCH

Oil Can Harry's is the name of a real place. That's awesome.

*first sentence was a question.

oh, I met a nice man last night. If he turns into my summer fling I would be pleased.

Wish some of you were here to go to Thundercrack! tonight.
