My 16 year old daughter and I are splitting it…she gets the eggs and meat, I get the beans veggies and toast. Where should we go it’s the last morning in town!

Want to get my long hair cut into layers/shag with curtain fringe. What’s the best place????

Coming in with my 16 year old daughter from Chicago and I want to treat her to a special/cool place. Any Instagram-worthy decor restaurants? Food that a teen would eat? I’m trying to expand her palate but also be reasonable. I mean I don’t like aspic either. Thank you!!!

Single female, 50, want to be near gay people for safety reasons. Where should I stay?

Anyone know??? It was a fun circuit

Looking for financial planners, estate planners, health and retirement experts, insurance experts, etc. it’s for queers 50 and up! It is UNPAID and about 3 hours on a Saturday afternoon in September or October. Thanks and happy Pride!!!!

But planning to leave the states behind. I won’t need a job or benefits as I will be retired. But my main question is where can I go in the world where people are actually..happy? Where they take care of each other? Where the rich aren’t catered to?

Not sure how else to describe my books. I wrote two a few years back when I thought for a hot second I was going to be able to quit my job as a public educator in the US. Alas, I’m not sure they’re even in print anymore, so grab a copy if you can! Or what the hell l email you a PDF. Anywho, I think THE COLLECTOR is more messed up than THE BUTCHER, but I was also messed up. Funny how life becomes art.

Where are you hanging out? What do you do with your days? Is there a way to bring all of us together?
