Boomer Banks met Ariana Grande, Seth Fornea shook his ass at the Pier Dance, Jessie Colter partied with drag queens in SF, and every gay in America’s two gayest cities, New York and San Francisco, generally partied their asses off this weekend.
The mood was, of course, a bit more joyful and intense in the wake of Friday’s SCOTUS decision, with celebratory rallies kicking off the weekend outside the Stonewall Inn in NY, and in SF’s Castro district.
Then came the marathon of parties, which for social gays in their 30s and 40s have come to be as much an annual chore as a dizzying cycle of drunk nights, hangovers, hair-of-the-dog brunches, drunk days, more drunk nights, and parades.
I’m happy to report I made it through alive again, despite being drunk for pretty much 72 hours straight, and I didn’t vomit, lose my phone, or lose any teeth. So: success!!
And over in New York some of the NakedSword crew splintered off to celebrate Boomer Banks’ birthday on Friday night at Easternbloc, along with Sister Roma, Tim Valenti, and Killian James, and they all proceeded to the VIP Rooftop Party at Hudson Terrace on Saturday, and the parade and Pier Dance on Sunday.
Spotted at drag queen Juanita MORE’s annual Pride Sunday party at Jones in San Francisco were Max Cameron, Jackson Fillmore, Adam Ramzi, Jessie Colter, and mr. Pam, among others.
Below, all the Twitter evidence that’s surfaced so far.

Who’s Jack Mackenroth?..Jesus his face us so noticed and plastic IT’S SCARY FEM FACE.
He’s the guy who became famous because he got the HIV. Personally I think he’s a bad role model where kids will think that getting HIV will get them a body like his. Just sayin.
… or a reality show. Or even five minutes with Tim Gunn.
