Jeffrey Gent, Homo History Blog

I’m reposting this Christmas photo initially shared by Jeffrey Gent on his homo history blog which is largely defunct now. Jeffrey now posts fairly regularly on his account on Tik Tok.

I dedicate this weekly post, featuring vintage gay photographs, to the men and women who lived in a more critical time where being true to yourself and loving who you want wasn’t always an option and came at a great price. Do you have a photo you would like to share? Email me at bosguymail@gmail.com.

The show will run through March 19, 2022 and tickets still remain although they are selling quickly. Tickets start at $40 for adults ($35 if purchasing four or more tickets).

To purchase tickets or to learn more about this exhibition that takes approximately one hour to view in Boston’s beautiful new event venue, the SoWa Power Station, click the link below.

“NFW”

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu calls for proof of vaccination for access to many indoor businesses

Yesterday, Mayor Michelle Wu called for stronger action to fight the COVID-19 pandemic and to protect public health. Starting next month, to enter many Boston businesses, proof of vaccination will be required.

While I believe nobody should be forced to get medical treatment, I also believe public health is more important than individual rights. Access to these public establishments is not a right, it’s a priviledge and one that you lose if you won’t take the necessary precautions to protect your community.

Today, The Boston Globe also reported nearly 97% of residents who have been vaccinated averted hospitalization and death from COVID-19. These findings illustrate the cost savings achieved by hospitalizations averted and (more importantly) the human suffering of individuals and their loved ones that was avoided. Apparently, vaccines not only save lives, they also save a lot of money. I’m unsure how that squares with fiscal conservatives who refuse to get vaccinated.

Bravo and thank you Mayor Wu

Modus Vivendi’s holiday season greeting may be so last season at this point, but I felt it was worth reposting.
