March 25, 2022: I have such epic spring fever I wonder if it might prove fatal. Last weekend I caught myself saying, "I doubt I'll ever sleep with a man again." Though a blatant betrayal of my own pansexuality (I care deeply about personality; the body is sexual equipment) it got me thinking about homoeroticism, and how much gets lost in the public imagination. Carmen Maria Machado's a real champienne of this, and one of the rare ones I really truly suspect will write back. (Photo by Art Streiber)
