I think I had this same conversation about Adam Ant years ago.
I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I swear, I remember Michael Stipe announcing he was gay years ago.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Same here. And I remember having the same "well, duh" reaction then.

Ahah:
In a 2001 Time interview, Stipe described himself as a "queer artist" and revealed that he had been in a relationship with "an amazing man" for three years at that point.

Must be all those time zones.
Does this mean the LotR movies came out down there 7 years before we got to see them?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
In early REM shows, Stipe would routinely perform on stage in drag. Yes, I know that tranvestite ≠ gay, but I don't think Stipe was ever trying to hide anything.

I heard all that about him back in college in the 80s because someone I hung out with was from Athens, GA, and she said it was basically an open non-secret. The guys in Husker Du were a much bigger surprise to me for some reason, although Greg Norton's mustache should have been a giveaway.
