Inside this issue Letter from the Editor Nick gets real about “What No One Told Me About Aging.” Not the polite version. Not the inspirational poster version. The honest one.

That’s exactly the world of Jason Knight, whose work through Knight Life Ceramics transforms everyday pottery into unapologetically queer erotic art. Cups, bowls, platters, and vases become canvases for the
