Notes for the Frugal Future Manifesto!
As FormerWest was getting enthusiastic over Fridays4Future, maybe believing in the promise of hyper-sensitive but sane youth one that can fail better at where they failed (and even failed to admit that this is a failure) or even dare to do what needed to be done … ...the future slipped out of focus and queer past somehow became the NewN0rm.
One thing I am envious of QueerWest was that queer history. For us ‘queer’ entered only (sub)liminally through pop imports, for those further East it was even less so... ...we basically missed the real stuff: the tension, the traumatic, the catharsic and the catalytic - AIDS crisis. We missed being free, promiscuous and then sad and close, building communal resistance out of tragedy out of loss. Not that it was easy here… We had our issues, ours traumas, our systems that failed us.
We lost US as we connected to all, but in the process became just me, myself and I (minus the beat, minus the sax, minus the sex...+ the ex-).
