It turns out that "not having time to be on tumblr", which has been my default state for the last 2 years, also translates to "not having time to be on any sort of social media." Alas. I hope that one day, my life will be less insanely busy, but that day may be 10 years in the future.

SIGH.

Oh hey! The other day I mentioned at work that I've been "reading about gay people in New York in the 1930s" (aka fanfic) and 2 of the other teachers were like "You're reading Gay New York?!" And I was like "... slowly, and in snippets."

I should probably read it for realz, though. Maybe in all the free time I have if I stop reading fanfic.

I will always enjoy hearing from you whenever you have the time, but/and you have a LOT on your plate right now.

"all the free time I have if I stop reading fanfic" this is too relatable, lol.

LOL I tell myself that fallacy of more free time if I'd just stop reading fanfic. Cause if it's not fanfic, it's comics, or real books, or my kindle ebooks. I think the last of my sanity would flee if I didn't read at least some every day.

I LOVE fanfic set in 30s and 40s gay New York. It's such a weakness of mine. Doesn't hurt at all that it almost always has Steve and Bucky. :)

I read "Gay New York" years ago, for a grad school seminar. Loved it then, but I'm not sure I'd have time to read it now. It's well-written, but it is </> a weighty tome. Plus, you know, fanfic. There's always so much to read... :D
