Account for posting about my work on the intersection of fashion in terms of both queer sex and business. 
Some explicit adult content posting but a lot of photos of suits and undershirts.

Most of my posting for the next year will concern my Master's Thesis: Al Peck’s Gently Used Bread: A Study of Applying Business Analytics in Grocery Retail

What's the point of watching once-popular-now-forgotten British crime shows from the early 2000s if you can't write a bit of smutty fanfic about them from time to time?

Working on part 2/8 of my master's thesis. Currently just under 4k words and just over 20 pages. Trying to finish designing an economy of scale study on how hard it is for a grocery store to make and sell its own bread, and then how to pass the bread along in an ethical way without contributing further to food waste. And it's due in about 30 hours but I'm only going to spend another hour or two on the damn thing lol.

Ringo Starr with His All-Starr Band
Performing at The BayCare Sound Amphitheater in Clearwater, FL

Great show and a great place to see a show.

Rewatched Jaws (1975), outlined new Martin/Matt porno story for Jaws (1975), texted my partner telling him how it’s a shame he hasn’t watched Jaws (1975), …

I love discovering people discovering that Doc Watson was blind. Like he literally said, repeatedly, that if he wasn’t blind, he’d have been a tradesman. But because he was blind, he became a professional musician instead.

For #pridemonth, this classic:

Me: I’m definitely going to a phd program
Also me: *constantly being tagged to answer legal studies questions*
Also also me: how much would I hate law school because I think I would be good at it but I also don’t know if I could mentally be a lawyer

The cost of just applying to PhD programs and the cost of taking the GMAT honestly scares me a bit as the guy who studies money.

Shit I have to fold all this laundry and I don’t feel like doing it but I’ll feel even less like it when I get home in two weeks time.

I’ve written before about how the primary problem here is that lgbtq professionals are massively denied the opportunities to have mentors because the elders gay professionals that do identify themselves to us, still have some sort of red flag.

For me, it’s that the out elders in my field often have some very conservative views. And I think it might seem sad from the outside that most of my mentors have been radical feminists, staunch allies, and usually psychologists in their 70s.

This came up initially in conversation for us because I had started following job listings for Grindr and I started sending them to him with comments about how “it would be a little too on the nose for either of us to work there”.

And I’m starting to exhibit some anxiety about being the business gay archetype in my grad program, probably because I wrote so extensively about LGBTQ culture during my undergrad program.

Particularly the two years I spent on gay bars.

Really wanting to write a blog post on a story one of my mentors/friends told me about how he, as an openly gay man, turned down a marketing job because it was an account for high-end men’s underwear.

The thesis of this piece would be how many of us who are queer professionals would be the best person to sell certain products or make contacts with certain customer subsets but we turn down certain jobs out of a specific type of anxiety that cishet professionals don’t experience.
