Sam Adams, Pete Buttigieg, and the good-boy mirage

I hate it when people write about writing, but it’s different when I do it

But perhaps we’re both just waiting to replace each other

The Little Mermaid was always gay. I just didn’t realize it until now

How I became a gay man in nine short months

Daddy issues, I choose you!

At sixteen, it’s supposed to be twenty pink hearts dotting the i’s of a note scribbled on a scrap of college-ruled paper passed between periods.

There were boys I admired from a distance.

I think that I’ve always enjoyed writing.

When I was very young and my parents would show me photos of when I was a baby, they would point and ask “who is that?” I’m told that I would point, too, and say “baby.”

Look, guys, I fucked up.
