The American pharmaceutical industry, circa 1998, colorized

Soooooooo, this happened last night!! I was sidling up to the hotel bar to get drinks, when I saw the Delightful and Hilarious Sandra Valls, the MC for Creating Change 2023 and a fantastic standup comic, who immediately asked if she knew me! And, while this question is one I get asked a lot in queer spaces like this, I knew she knew me from an entirely different part of my life!! Sandra was a regular performer when I was the showroom manager at The Hollywood Improv, before I transitioned!!! So of course I said a very empathetic YES to the moment! We ended up hanging out at the bar for quite a while and it was so wonderful to see her!!! #transwoman #coolqueers #lesbians #butch #femme #queerfemme #butchlesbian #comedians #comedy #awesomehumans #sixtiesstyle #coolwomen #creatingchange #cc23 #creatingchangeconference #queer #lgbtq #comics (at Hilton San Francisco Union Square) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co2p1d9PNDC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I had a fabulous time last night at The Taskforce party!! So many cool humans!!! It’s just so nice to be in person with community again! (Especially folks that I can feel reasonably certain are triple-vaxxed and being generally careful and considerate in their outside lives!) #transwoman #queerfemme #activist #adventurer #sanfrancisco #nightlife #queer #community #lgbtq #party #trans #cc23 #creatingchange #creatingchangeconference (at Rye) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co5kS2_PMOy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

On the road again!!! I’m in San Francisco for Creating Change!! Right now I’m sitting in the hotel lobby surrounded by fabulous queers, trying to get some work done between excited moments of “OMGs, hiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!!” As I see old friends and comrades from the community and LGBTQ activism!! #creatingchange #transwoman #queer #queerfemme #pink #activist #activism #smithsswadmissions #lgbtq #cc23 #creatingchangeconference (at Hilton San Francisco Union Square) https://www.instagram.com/p/Covy_slMhMA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
