Diary excerpt: Friday, August 28, 1942 Last nite depression about the New York trip got me in its grip and it continued this morning. Went over to George's. George went to get a prescription filled and after we came out asked me if I'd noticed a fellow in the booth, saying it was Freddy Pond, I remember with horror how I used to have to go over to his house after school and tutor him in his steps for dancing school. His mother, who later made the costumes for the exhibition, played the piano and Freddy bore it all with genuine patience. Mrs. Pond always said he idolized me but how I hated the whole boring business, just a bit of parental diplomacy. George says that Freddy is now "trade" even tho married and a father. I must admit that I don't know the meaning of that word, so often used among homos, but think it must mean someone who's willing only for money. George is so much more up on such things than I am.

Kathryn Hixson: Is your work gay literature? Dennis Cooper: Gay literature isa useless term. It’s only useful marketing wise — the gay community supports its writers. There’s these bookstores that stock the book, publications that review the book — which is great. Heterosexuals don’t tend to get that. But my work is not about homosexuality at all, it's completely relative. It’s useless in that sense. I mean Genet and Burroughs...are they gay writers? Is Bataille a heterosexual writer? Its not about that at all. It’s not about homosexuality except that it’s something that puts you outside of culture, which is where everyone should want to be anyway. KH: It puts you on the outside of culture? DC: It gives you a vantage point, so you don’t have to participate in the same way, in the way society is set up. I mean the rules are set up for people who want to be happy and make a lot of money and have two kids and blah blah blah. If you don’t want that-if you’re gay or not gay, really, you don’t have to play that game- you can observe it. Homosexuals, all minorities, are excluded from being involved in the process, so you work the margins where everything great always happens anyway. KH: You’re saying that you’re marginal and taking the outsider stance, but the writing is saying that you’re not. DC: Well, our writing is not about gay society, gay ritual or thinking about what it means to be homosexual. Who cares? Gary Indiana: It’s not about coming out of the closet. DC: It’s about things that everybody’s... fear of the Other, or obsession- things that everybody can relate to. People who are interested in our work are not just gay people. Most gay people are not interested in our work at all. There are some weirdo gay people who are interested. I’ve been publishing for a long time and I’ve gotten attacked all the time by the gay press, because they say my work is not politically correct: I shouldn’t represent homosexual people as murderers, homosexuals should be repr…

I'm normal again

I'm sadly not completely out of harm's way but I'm in a much better position now than even a month back and I know I'll find a way through this soon. I love all of you and I hope you get to read this

I was planning on posting an update later this weekend and DM'ing some people who helped out when I desperately needed the help but I really don't know how to reach out now to everyone who have been so wonderful to me, this past month and just in general over the years

I just want to let people know that my Twitter account got suspended today for spam (?) just in case anyone got worried for me since I already was completely absent from Twitter & bsky for like two weeks. I'm still dealing with some personal situations atm but I felt obligated to show a sign of life

It's just amazing to me how much our conception of the 90s was utterly defined by Britney and her later contemporaries that it's honestly easy to forget that that specific Cheiron Studios sound wasn't really around for much of the decade like that

It's so interesting to think about how different the pop market was before the late nineties was fully flooded with teen pop. When Britney got signed by Jive there was really only one other act that fit the niche they envisioned for her career: Robyn
