My current fantasy books! One is a mythic fantasy series with Greek gods & modern heroes, while the other is the first of a Celtic fantasy trilogy about two teen boys told they must save their world from warring gods. Both are on Amazon. 🏳️‍🌈 Check them out!

A former student told me today that having an openly gay teacher (me) basically saved his life because he knew that his future could be so much better. He said that just my presence alone was a light in the dark. He said he's out & proud now because of me. 😭

Ageism in the gay community is truly sad. That'll be my last FB LGBTQ group. Tired of being trolled by younger men because I'm in my 50s. I value myself. They can swim in their cesspool of bile and bitterness.

Whenever I see a gay man whine about turning 30-something as "old," I'd like to remind him that at 53, I'm in the best shape of my life with the wisdom of those years. So, stop whining. If you feel old at 30-whatever, perhaps it's your lifestyle that's worn you out.

I know that the new 52 Wonder Woman was born with Zeus as her father, and Patty Jenkins uses that in her movies. But, I will never, ever, ever be okay with that. Hippolyta sculpted Diana from clay, and Aphrodite brought her to life. That's the only origin I'll accept.

@mrdvant09 @neilhimself A parent can decide not to let a child read a book without banning the book in the school system. Showing any nudity in the context of the Holocaust isn't intended to be lude. It's intended to show the horrific things people endured. Maybe do some research on the subject.

Gay people need to stop their toxic, negative attitudes toward other gay people. No one should be shamed for being older, heavier, or anything else that doesn't fit the standard "muscle gay" model. I've been called old way too many times. Ahem—It's called wisdom & experience.
