Perhaps now is the time for that kd of work, some kd of balance between the prosaic and the visceral, when the landspe for a lot of bigger gay thgs mostly flatters our looks.

And the play’s skepticism of his tstworths as some kd of moral pass is void of the plexy required to have your gay virtue signaler and nmn him too.
