Gus Mattox Went On Food Stamps, Procured Hot Boyfriend Who Reads A Kindle At the Gym

The retired hunk daddy has at least two great talents that I know of: fucking boy ass, like Pierre Fitch’s in Falcon’s Through the Woods, and writing about his life. This entry is a few months old but I just came across it. Here’s an excerpt:

Did I mention I have been unable to find a job, even bartending or waitering? Did I mention I went on food stamps last week? And HEAP heating assistance? Did I mention that I’m now officially a poor person?…

As they say, it always works out in the end, and if it hasn’t worked out, it isn’t the end. And here’s the real thing: I was diagnosed HIV-positive on February 26, 1993 (Google the date: interesting coincidence…) and did not expect to live to see 40. Well, I just turned 49. So those problems and headaches I’m dealing with? I’m alive to have them, so bring ‘em the fuck on.

…Of all the unexpected and remarkable things that happened to me this year, the most unexpected, the most remarkable of all is that I fell in love. I had pretty much written off the chances of that ever happening again. Without regret, I hasten to add. But there he was at the gym, reading his goddam Kindle between sets and looking just as cute as cute can be. That was three months ago. And yes, I’m almost twice his age. (For now, anyway; that proportion changes in my favor every day.)

Below, Gus hangs out with his ri-fucking-diculously hot boyfriend, Johnathan. So fuck you, Johnathan.

  1. Am I an evil person, if I get irritated one learning a performer hiv poz stats after the fact? I mean, who else in this industry has it?
