Throwaway Boy: The True Story of a Quarter Rat and His “Most Important Asset”
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract: A Cajun Louisianan, Pierre “Peter” Rene DeLancey (1969–1998), was born with a set of physical attributes that doomed his prospects and spelled his early death because those attributes were sexually coveted in his lifespan. Suffering molestation as a child, he ran away from home only to contract HIV at age sixteen when he was raped by a male prison guard at a Louisiana juvenile facility. DeLancey found allies as an unhoused street kid in the New Orleans queer community. As an eighteen-year-old illiterate sex worker, he was informally adopted by a chosen family and inspired into AIDS activism by a local queer politico named Stewart Butler. DeLancey took a stand against President Ronald Reagan at the 1988 Republican National Convention before being sidetracked into a brief pornography career. He endured poor health before dying young and creating, in his passing, an activist tradition still honored in the Queer South.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
