Fuck. Twenty-two years. Time is so fleeting – how the hell have 22 years passed? I write this from my new home, still in Berlin, but some 7 kilometers from my old home. One of the things about moving is that you must sort through all your belongings, even though you’ve forgotten that you own. […] This book, by Steve Gunderson and Rob Morris (with Bruce Bawer), was one of the few non-academic books that I kept in my dorm room at the University of Wyoming, the last year that I was a graduate student. It was published in September 1996 – so just after I had graduated with my […] On June 12, 2020, the Pulse nightclub in Orlando was the site of horrific mass shooting: 49 dead, 53 wounded. While I’ve already mentioned attending a memorial at Brandenburg Tor (Whatchamacallit 89: #BerlinForOrlando #LoveIsLove), this comic book is another reminder of that tragic day. It was also a fundraiser, will all proceeds going to […] I ran across this book somewhere and decided to order it: Felix Ever After This is an amazing book about an FTM teenager attending high school in Brooklyn, exploring themes around love, friendship, transphobia, being rich, no longer being rich, being rejected, and more.

I actually bought this the second night – and the decision to buy it was the Pride coloring. Baseball is truly the sole sport that I enjoy watching – it’s relaxing and laid back – slow […] Gosh, it was four years ago today that I met friends at Brandenburg Tor to remember the victims of the Orlando Pulse Nightclub shooting. The above heart was given to me by somebody in the crowd during the gathering to wear – I’ve kept it ever since. I don’t know why. Maybe I do: […] I just finished Continental Divide, the above book – I wish I could remember where I first learned about the book.
