We’re a bit late to the Met Gala roundup. But we, like others, have good reason. The world has been an ultimate garbage bin of trash fire and we were prioritizing self-care while also responding to more pressing social issues (e.g., our owner is still a researcher studying preventions, treatments, and cures in therapeutic areas such as HIV/AIDs, oncology, and COVID-19, while another member of our collective works for an organization that responds to the world’s largest crisis caused by war, conflict, and natural disasters.)
We have some Friday night time to gather our thoughts and enjoy some of the queer joy from the Met Gala, and have put together a list of some the best queer lewks for a small hit of serotonin. Let’s take a look.
