What was the longest you ever went without using your voice, without having a medical reason (cold, sore throat, surgery, injury, etc.)? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] 1 point 1 month ago (1 child)

Do you ever notice that, when you do finally speak, your voice has changed/is different? To me it feels my vocal chords have forgotten what they're supposed to do and my throat oozes this garbled, rasp around my bloated tongue.

I'll have to try speaking to myself out loud more often, just to keep in shape

    Gay Pen-pal program in Los Angeles, late 1980s-early 1990s? (lemmy.world)
     

    Do you recall? Did you participate?

    There was a pen-pal program - you got an actual pen-pal that you wrote letters to (on paper) Pretty sure it was primarily for young coming-out gaybies back in the late 1980s/early 1990s. I heard about it (age 17 I think) clandestinely on the transformational radio program 'This Way Out' in the wee hours when I should have been asleep.

    I got a pen-pal and we corresponded for a bit until we met (!) at a Jack-in-the-Box near the Los Angeles Gay Center. I had to use a friend's address to get the letters.

    There was also a 'coming out group' (?) at the LA Gay Center; I forget what it actually was called but I'm pretty sure the two were connected in some way.

    I've contacted 'This Way Out', they didn't know what I was talking about. The LA Gay Center is impossible to contact, so no luck there.

    The whole thing was just a life saver and I want to thank whoever created that pen-pal program.

    Do you know who created it/how to contact them? Did you participate in either the pen-pal program or the 'coming out' groups at the LA Gay Center in/around 1989-1991?
