Queer Bluesky: how old were you when you came out and how old are you now?

I was 22, almost 23, when I came out to my friends in 1991. I came out to my family in 1993.
I'm 57 years old now, although that doesn't seem possible most of the time.
Queer Bluesky: how old were you when you came out and how old are you now?

I was 14/15 years old, making it 2000. Came out to my family and friends. Met my first boyfriend shortly after, and we dated off/on until I was 19. (I’m 39 years old now)

It was the easiest, one question, open book test in American history. And we are all suffering due to their failure. I will never forget, and never forgive the people who did this to us.
I'd go with Stevie, Cynthia, and Gaga. If music is magic (and I think it is), then this would definitely be my trio.
I’ll go Gaga, Cynthia and SJP for a Hocus Pocus-esque moment
Alas, I'm 4000 km away 😢
Gladly 👅👅👅🔥🔥🔥

What about jock-tober? I think your adoring public would like to see that 🥵🥵🥵

I just love having a day when it feels like I have to force myself to appear happy to keep the peace around me but in reality all I want to do is crawl into bed and forget I exist.
Another reminder that every group, no matter how "left-leaning" or "woke" others perceive it, has its own quislings - usually wealthy, cis, hetero (or hetero-passing) men.

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

I’m sorry but let me unbury this lede: *the genAI industry is literally the financial engine that is powering the fascist regime in the United States*

I hadn’t even made this connection and now I’m even more horrified by this tech than I have ever been.

Boosterism == fascism, literally
Not to mention helping to pinkwash notoriously anti-LGBTQ countries during his travels while having the privilege to escape to somewhere safer when things get dangerous.

24 years ago, britney spears performed ‘i’m a slave 4 u’ with a snake at the vmas. she was only 19.
I've also noticed a tremendous increase in people sharing/reposting various requests for money. I'll try to help out a friend when I can, and perhaps I'm being a bit too cynical, but I wonder how many of these are truly legitimate.

I sympathize with you. I spent one Christmas season years ago working for Kmart (yes, I'm old lol), and immediately went back to the restaurant industry. Some of my best customers during the holidays were retail people.
Having spent a looonngg time in the hospitality industry, I can understand and totally agree. I used to love being asked on a Thursday what I was doing for the "holiday" weekend. I'm like, bud, I'm serving your happy ass alcohol and hoping no one pukes on the bar.
