So far so good!

Loving this book so far. I’m gunna fly through it.

The End of Gay Culture: this essay was written in 2005 and it was fascinating to read. First it was about gay culture not LGBTQ+ culture which was interesting. Second I have never felt myself to be a part of either, and it is especially interesting to read about a culture that certainly no longer exists due to the fact that 20 years ago he thought it was ending. I Appreciate how far we have come that I live openly

Still Here, So Sorry (2005): A good essay about how we should be terrified of something I am terrified of, HIV. Andrew has the means at the time of the essay’s writing to afford expensive HIV treatments compared to other people allowing him to live past 40, something he never believed would happen. He laments how he is a bad example for HIV prevention because he can live a normal life.
