I spent the evening of Dec 1st at a screening of Feast, a rather difficult film about the bizarre case of a Groningen man who purposely infected his sex partner with #HIV.
The screening was organised by the Rotterdam HIV+ community to commemorate #WorldAidsDay22.
Although the film broached difficult subjects, the mood was optimistic and light. The HIV+ group knows how to have fun! See you all next year. ❤️🏳️🌈
End the damn Taboo already!
This year I have spent more time than usual reading the obituaries of gay men lost to the AIDS epidemic in the USA during the 80s and 90s.
When I read an obituary, I take a moment and say the name of the deceased out loud to myself.
In this way I honor their memory and I hold their loved ones, even for a moment, in my heart, thoughts, and physical space.
