WYSIWYG

I forgot to mention that we went to WYSIWYG’s “Spawn.Of.Worst.Sex.Ever!” on Tuesday night, and it was hysterical. The only two performers I knew were MAK and Dr. Faustus. MAK’s story, despite the bad sex described therein, was very cute. Faustus sang an original song about orgies. Faustus is so fucking talented – this is the second time I’ve seen him perform an original song at WYSIWYG, and I don’t know how he pulls these gems out of his ass. Though I guess when so much has gone in that ass, wonderful things are bound to come out. (God, that was an awful attempt at a witty metaphor.)

There was also Blaise, about whom I’d heard so much but whom I’d never met before; WYSIWYG founder, your friend and mine, Chris, who talked about “titties,” among other things; this guy, who. was. fucking. amazing; Chelsea Peretti; Cheryl B. of The B List; and Bad Man.

It was a great show, as usual. Hats off to Chris, Dan, and Andy!

Was there anyone else in the audience who reads me and I don’t know about?

Savage on Keyes

Dan Savage on Maya Keyes, the lesbian daughter of conservative idiot Alan Keyes:

But I can’t enjoy this news about Maya Keyes as much as most gays and lesbians. As a parent, you see, I feel Alan Keyes’s pain – and Randall Terry’s too. I can empathize with their desire not to see their children grow up to be one of us because I live in mortal fear of my child growing up to be one of them.

As a gay parent, Dan Savage always has an interesting perspective on things.
