The MFA's fantastic new exhibition about Casanova.

The MFA's fantastic new exhibition about Casanova.

Friday Night, June 29

June 29, 2018

1) Today a colleague of 35 years quietly retired, which is . . . well, she's just always been there! She passed on to me a small collection of very old yearbooks, which was mighty nice of her.

2) Everyone has to cope with the current political situation in the best way they can, and the best way for me is not to read every* descent-into-fascism-is-already-here article friends post to ye Fycebykke, but to keep moving forward.

2a) And really, my message is the same as RuPaul's:

Discover & share this Showtime GIF with everyone you know. GIPHY is how you search, share, discover, and create GIFs.

3) Took in the member preview of the new Casanova exhibition at the MFA, which was fantastic (see above). Wonderful to be there with so few people. Go see it!

*Some, but not every one.
