I bought this package of Pepperidge Farm Goldfish Colors awhile back: judging from its expiration date of March 8, 2015, I probably bought it in 2014. Given the rainbow, I thought of it as Pride Goldfish – so after eating them, I save the box. In the intervening years, the package has faded slightly […] I acquired this wristband thingy whilst riding the Lady Gaga truck at Berlin CSD (Pride) 2011. If it weren’t for the fact that I keep it on a shelf that I see out of the corner of my eye, I probably would have tossed this years ago. Its main purpose is to remind me […] I’m not really a cologne person – or as one of my friends calls perfumes and colognes, “smells.” This bottle of tommy is one of three smells that I own – and I rarely wear it. But when I smell it, it takes me back to the first time. He wore it. Consequently, for […] I picked up this hat last August while visiting Boston – and going to two Red Sox games. I actually bought this the second night – and the decision to buy it was the Pride coloring.

Maybe I do: […] The above image was a present from dear friends who found it for sale at the Lesbian and Gay Street Festival in Berlin during the summer of 2018. They bought it directly from the artist, who had a booth at the festival. I saw the booth a grabbed a postcard from the artist, which […] A few years ago, I was in Canada in the run-up to Pride, which is when I bought this bracelet. While I can tell you that I bought this at Roots, the venerable Canadian clothing store, I have no idea how much I paid for it. I also do not know when I bought […] Back in December, I went to New York City for Christmas, meeting a friend there, seeing some shows, a concert, the city, and whatever else one does whilst one is in The City. Along the way I stopped by the Bluestockings Bookstore, Cafe & Activist Center (there’s a mouthful) – which is a liberal, […] This past weekend was CSD Berlin – and I went to the parade, lasting for about 2.5 hours of it – some 40 floats out of the 70+ in the parade.
