That sounds great!
Semi relieved to hear I’m not the only one with the whole “word will get back to family” thing going on… that and being in a red state have kept me firmly “in the closet”. Id have to go to the next state over to not risk it, the nearest cities are very popular destinations.
Yeah, any locally owned businesses, there’s a good chance its the business owners second job for retirement, with their primary job being where i work, which would out me to family. Its kinda… stifling.
LGBTQ+ spaces also have family friends working at them, i don’t know that they’d out me, but im paranoid anyway.
