    Not really a response related to the post prompt, but more your comment…

    I grew up on a farm in rural NC. Graduated college with a film degree & headed west to LA. I wound up rooming with a friend a from high school, his girlfriend, & her friend from fashion school…

    …who turned out to be a 6’7”, 225lbs, gay volleyball player & ex-cheerleader from Korea.

    My friend only knew me as the little redneck kid who used to throw rocks at rabbits & swore too much growing up. He lectured me on behaving around a gay man & really made a big deal about not being ass to our roommate.

    4 years later I transitioned & got my first makeup lessons from that roommate. He became my drag mom 🤣

    Time is a mindfuck sometimes…
