“This year we all had the opportunity to give up or move forward, and most of us probably did at least a little of both. I have been surviving the pandemic through music, fashion, art, rescue doggos, and just showing up for the communities I care about and belong to. I’m grateful to still be here and feel very clear about who and how I am trying to be in this new world. My reaction to the endless suffering happening around me and across the globe this past year was to lean all the way into gay joy, any way I could. Everything I create now is rooted in this unwavering belief that we will all come back together someday, to dance and hug and kiss and fuck and eat at restaurants and go to shows and see our families and shop in stores and travel and get the mail without worrying about dying and just have fun, like we used to. I spent so many years — decades, actually — unhappy in my own life. I just absolutely refuse the darkness now.” – Logan Lynn
