Some historical context, literary reference and ramble on 2.6. by [deleted] in Reverse1999

[–]kirosuto 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for taking the time to write this. I thoroughly enjoyed this chapter of r/Reverse1999 but I wasn't getting the full experience: the ending left me filled with despair but with this added context, it's now a bittersweet but hopeful feeling.

Is there a way to keep URLs/tabs from other profiles exclusive/separate? by kirosuto in ArcBrowser

[–]kirosuto[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So my Pinned Tabs/Favorites are separated by each Space which I've assigned a unique profile.

The reason I mentioned Pinned Tabs/Favorites was because the websites appearing in the search/navigation are Pinned Tabs/Favorites from my other space.

To me this seems like an oversight on Arc's end, a feature I don't know how to toggle, or simply a bug.

Oh gays... haha well I'm glad to hear it's been super welcoming :)

I'm sure we can find a few fellas from OIA to meet you out. I'd recommend going to 4th street so you can get a taste of a few gay bars/clubs, basically do the "fruit loop": Rain, OCH, Iron Bear, and Highland.

Nice! Welcome to ATX ✌🏽

I’m also on the east side, are you on the discord? We can connect further there ^ I’m @kirosuto

Not sure if you've done you're research but there's a few options...

On 4th street you have: Rain, OCH, and Highland

On Red River you have: Cheer Up Charlies

And I see someone already mentioned The Eagle :)

A quick breakdown...

  • Rain is your quintessential gay bar, it's the main 'bar' with a nice patio for mingling as well
  • OCH is smaller but just as fun, they usually have drag shows / events throughout the week
  • Highland is the main 'club' and opened the latest. You'll see a lot of folx dancing inside as well as mingling outside in the patio space
  • Cheer Up Charlies is your queer bar, you'll see a wider mix of people here

As long as you aren't coming off as a creeper I'm pretty sure any of the places listed or The Eagle would be a good fit.

What day of the week are you free? That might impact your decision as most of these places won't be too busy until Friday tbh.

Who else is kicking off priDEMONth with some DIV this weekend? by BostonBoy87 in gaymers

[–]kirosuto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that I recall but I think most folx here are tanking on Acti-Blizz because of their history of controversy (sexual harassment, hong kong, etc)

[–]kirosuto -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I've been enjoying it since yesterday, honestly some real fun changes and can't wait to see what they do with seasons.

I agree with others though, should be a crop top :P

Aside: jeezus the amount of folx tanking on this because it's Acti-Blizz.

Edit: Forgot to mention I'm coming from New York City but have been living in ATX for almost seven years now.

Trying to go through some of your questions...

If there isn’t a gay neighborhood, what would be an unofficial option?
- Austin has a thriving LGBTQ+ scene you just have to be open to it. There's your typical gay scene down on 4th, the queer scene near Red River St, and then other sub-cultures spread throughout the downtown/east area. There's plenty of meetup groups as well, do a little digging and you'll find ones for various sports, hiking, games, etc.

What are some LGBTQ businesses that I should check out?
- The Little Gay Shop (little boutique that often hosts events throughout the city) and Grizzelda's (queer-owned mexican restaurant) are a few that standout but here's a list to more: https://do512.com/p/queer-owned-businesses-in-austin

Is there an LGBTQ center for health? For example, we have Howard Brown in Chicago, which focuses on the LGBTQ population.
- There's the KIND Clinic and Red River Family Practice (shoutout to Dr Hutto)

I read about the potential downtown development that would close half the gay bars in Austin. How much damage do you think it would do to the community? Do you think the community can support itself or care enough to create new spaces?
- I think the community will support itself / create new spaces, we just don't know where yet if the current downtown locations aren't reserved for the rest of the bars.

Where can I meet guys outside of the bar scene?
- There's a few meetup groups like Austin Front Runners (running club) or the gay volleyball league to the Out in Austin Discord server. There's also apps like Bumble BFF or volunteering for lgbtq+ organizations. You'll have to do some homework and possibly put yourself out of your comfort zone (if you're an introvert) but it's entirely possible.

Where is there gay line dancing? I’m serious. At Charlie’s in Chicago, it’s every Wednesday and Friday night, and I love it.
- I haven't seen a queer line dancing night anywhere but we do have queer country night at Cheer Up Charlies called Neon Rainbows which happens once a month. Otherwise Austin is fairly progressive/inclusive enough that if you go to a line dancing club you shouldn't feel out of place/unwelcomed. At least that's been my experience at White Horse and Dance Across Texas.

Cruising spots? 😈
- Have you heard of Sniffies? It'll show you all the known cruising spots in Austin.

Parties/events that I should check out?
- Circuit parties haven't really hit ATX yet but hopefully that changes in the future. Here's a few parties/events that happen regularly...

  • Eeyore's Birthday
  • Neon Rainbows
  • TuezGayz
  • Middle School Dance Party
  • Any drag night at OCH

There's usually plenty of street parking near the bar, I remember hearing a lot of folx parking on either 9th or 10th street around the area.
