obligated to hang out with my dad for a bit today, but it was better than usual-- i actually came away a bit invigorated by some of the conversation ?? he gave some interesting accounts of his exposure to gay culture in the 70s +

Growing up in the 80s and 90s this sort of vague obliviousness plus use of "gay" as a generic insult etc all without really getting that it was a real thing that real people were seems very familiar TBH. I was a pretty clueless kid, but feels like it was shared.
