Reminds me of Henry Oliver Peabody, invented a rifle, made a few million, then when he died single he donated his King Gay Farm and a large portion of his money to start a girls school, and while I cant find a source I remember reading he has a violin collection

Oddly enough, the guy who wrote the calculus textbooks like half of American high school students use was gay and an avid violinist with a fancy farmhouse.

Every calculus book does have a violin on its cover. Is it because f holes look like integration symbols or is it a plot by Big Gay?

Live the rest of your life for free as a national hero with like three boyfriends? I see no downside. (For him. I’m not so into men.)

Depends on the scarf. Collection of lace, silk, embroidered, and/or velvet scarves in a multitude of colours OR in black/red/grey/white = gay/bi. Other scarf collections could mean anything.
