So Pride was yesterday in San Diego. I did Pride stuff in Ohio, but, idk, in San Diego I just feel so lost about where to go to experience culture, beyond what I grew up with.
Anyway, my coworker told me that another coworker was doing Pride stuff that day while we worked, so when she came in to work with me today, I said, "How was Pride?!" and it turned out she had skipped the festivities because her boyfriend's parents had come in to town and she had done stuff with them instead. So I teased her that she had skipped Pride for "straight reasons."
Then she asked if I had done anything, which I hadn't because I wouldn't know where to go or who to go with, but when I said "no," she said, "For straight reasons?" and I had to envision my night.
Last night I queried my LGBTQ+ YA fantasy to a queer agent while watching an episode of a show where two guys professed their feelings for each other under the influence of alien technology.
Not for straight reasons, then
