I will be live blogging about Vives Q! so this post will be continually updated throughout the night. I will post time stamps of each one. You'll get at least one on the hour every hour. Though it might not be on the blog until a few minutes pass the hour. #yeshomo

Messing up already, forgot to post at 6. It's starting, we're having pizza not a lot of pepole are here yet. A very chill per-performance space. 6:20pm
7:00pm
Getting started, there is a speaker. I don't know what the topic is yet. This is the last one of the season so it feels very last hoary. There's a couple announcement as to keep the community informed. Excited to see what is like once it gets going. 7:05pm
The speaker is a white Puerto Rican author. It's interesting to me to think of white pepole born in countries claiming the nationality. 7:45pm
The interview portion (the speaker) of the night is almost over. We are doing the audience question. You can text in questions and I really like that. Also the speaker is Dr. Carlos T Mock. An author, doctor, activist, white Puerto Rican, cis man. 7:52pm
8:00pm
His HRC side is coming out I have a lot to say about HRC, but this is not the place. I wonder if he sees the privilege he had and the power he had. I wonder if he regrets picking marriage over employment, education, bathrooms, murder, health care, housing, funding, ect. I think from his final statemens he does regret picking marriage first 8:00pm

There are performances now. The first one was a story. It was about consumption and labor. Then there was a song, creep by radio head. Followed by a poem called rotten apples.
8:24pm
So the performance part is like ameture hour at your local coffee shop. It's cute sometimes but most of the time you clap becuase the people are your friends. The last preformer was really good. Skittles likey.
8:33pm
Over - 8:40pm
Got tacos-9:00pm
I think Vives Q is necessary and vital to the community. There is plenty of time to talk and network atthe beginning. There is free hiv testing. The interview talk highlights and discuss a variety of topics, that are important conversations with the community needs to be having. The performance part let's people who long for the stage get a shot that they often are not offered. Vives Queer
