very handsome

today i dressed up as 'office worker on casual friday' so i could give even less of a fuck than usual

oh my the queers and their halloween costumes and photos. i'm supportive fron the sidelines. i stayed home all weekend and i'll be in bed by 8:30 tonight. it's spooky season for many but it's depression season for me.

I hear ya. Normally I can't stand Halloween

i do get an idea or two for a costume every year but it just seems like another project i have to do. i swear one of these years i'll just go for it. maybe i need to do mushroom / ketamine therapy and a little bit of magic queer pixie dust will rub off on me.

yesterday i had a strong image of me djing in a dress. like a nice designer dress. putting that one on the 'maybe some day when i have less baggage to carry around all the time' list too.

We were supposed to do an Airbender themed couples costume this year, but my weekend in hospital dashed those dreams— I can’t even eat any candy at the moment, on a “full liquids” diet until Friday

Negronis!

oh no, i hope you're feeling better soon

table, I hope you got my message on the other thread. Hugs.

I did, thanks Alfred and map! staying away from booze for a bit as i believe it might have been a booze-induced chowdown that caused the obstruction in the first place, but i am planning on hitting the vape for the first time since Friday, longest i’ve gone in years without weed ?!?

I'm not sure taking someone younger and more inebriated than yourself into a bathroom for sex, moments after meeting them, is the way you want that hook-up story to sound

We didn't have sex. It's fine -- we talked yesterday, we're meeting for coffee tomorrow night.

i've never really loved halloween - the pressure to think of an original/funny costume, running all over town to get the stuff you need for it, then actually executing the idea (and in my case, more likely than not doing a shitty job of it)...i know some gays treat it like it's their christmas and i'm happy for them but it's not really my thing. i'm also really ready for those spirit halloween costume memes all over IG to be over and done with lol

i agree very much with all of that, except the doing a shitty job of it, i don't think that's possible for you

i look forward to the day i can hire my own temporary costume designer to execute my halloween costume for me (must have seen one too many of those vogue look back videos today)

you aren’t allowed to have drunken bathroom sex until you’re at least 22

xp yes, that was uncalled for imo.

shit, hope you're ok table and wish you a speedy recovery.

i've worn the same costume every year for the last 5 or 6 years, initially it was based of a playful yijing reading ("someone tethers his cow; the traveller's gain is the townie's disaster", no particular question). I had this great 1890's fringe jacket that i bought to flip but never got around to selling. a year later i added a hobby horse.

can we see the jacket?!

omg i love all of that xp

apropos of nothing here's a hobby horse from wikipedia

when i'm dancing with my straight friends

awww look at those straight people

ok i had to laugh at the fb friend whose costume was a "spirit halloween costume" template printed out as a giant card they're wearing

Had sex with my husband this morning, rolled over and said “Now let’s vote.”

Yeah, because all your gay friends wouldn't go https://t.co/oAV3dl1eyV

Wish Morbs were here to see this

So would he, if memory serves

the taylor swift tweet on the other head i wouldn't wish on him

I wouldn’t wish it on anyone, tbh

I miss Morbs’ sense of humor … and that he had one

"At least two people inside the club confronted and fought the gunman and prevented further violence, Vasquez said. “We owe them a great debt of thanks,” he said."

mfer was 22 years old.

i've been to club q, once. it was the second to last day of a week i had to spend in colorado springs attending an antiquarian books seminar. i took an uber out there. i remember black and white checkered decor. friendly people. there was a bathhouse attached to it, pretty bare bones but charming. i had a great time. played hooky the next day. my best memory of the whole week by far. a little oasis stuck in the futuristic lower case sans serif gay 2000s and perfect for it. colorado springs is such a horrible place overall, has to be one of the worst cities in the u.s. that bar was really the only gay bar in the city iirc. what a nightmare.

how conservative is Colorado Springs, map?

i mean, i don't have numbers and i haven't checked recently, but it's the ultimate armed forces town with a whole mess of defense contractors and so forth. there's literally nowhere good to eat in the city. the whole place is basically a run-down suburb. the city itself outlawed recreational weed, you have to buy it 30 miles outside of town.

:| feel better soon

i'm in a meeting

calling in sick in a few, air quality got me feeling crappy

I’m about to go into a meeting

HI

jesus fuck i've missed you all

i'll skip the update on my life and just say - love the invocation of Morbs above, and lovely to catch up on some stories.

how are the meetings? i'm on a hybrid schedule now so there are a lot of meetings with my kitchen blurred in the background happening. i look pretty cute on camera though, i think because it blurs my features slightly so i'm ok with it.

o also it's so funny to see the community finally catching up to my k + caps microdose therapies. who knows if they're working but sometimes it's nice.

I'm going to sell my Jeep (because I can't afford it) and attempt to live a year without a car (except the one my husband owns)

well that should be fine, right? what does your hubby own?

that's sad about your jeep though, i'm sorry :(

meh, I liked it a lot but it's not going to break my heart at all ... not much of a car person tbh. My husband's car is a Beemer

not a fan of cars either.

i griped to my partner about how much i hate salt lake city and utah for the millionth time last night and it sounds like Project Move Out of Utah will be moving forward at the beginning of the year, with a 1.5 year eta instead of 5 years. potential destinations include colorado and oregon.

My husband just signed a contract so we're stuck in Minny for another 3 years at least

i still don't have a driver's license. my permit's still good until late january but i haven't been behind the wheel in months and tbh i'm not really feeling up to practicing rn. i find driving kind of terrifying but i also feel a little silly that literal 17-year-olds can drive with confidence and i can't.
