Despite being in the middle of a worsening pandemic that has, so far, killed 133,000 Americans and counting, thousands of revelers flocked to Fire Island last weekend to party, party, party.
Without a doubt, many of them will begin feeling the effects of their decision to ignore the advice of public health experts sometime in the next 14 days, which is the incubation period for COVID-19.
But at least one is already paying a steep price for his behavior.
Giancarlo Albanese will forever be remembered as the charming young man who partied on Fire Island over 4th of July weekend 2020 then posted photo to Instagram along with the caption: “F*ck Your mask. F*ck your social distancing. F*ck your vaccine. F*ck your eugenics. Kiss my a**hole if you think I’m an a**.”
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Then, just to make sure as many people as possible saw his post, he also shared it on Twitter:
Fuck Your mask. Fuck your social distancing. Fuck your vaccine. Fuck your eugenics. Kiss my asshole if you think Im an ass??????#fireisland #summer #nyc #newyork #fireislandpines #party #beachlife #beachparty #ocean #moonlight #rave #covid9 #coronavirus #maga pic.twitter.com/21B9EpcBib

Awful, right?
It gets worse.
Because as it turns out, Giancarlo’s mother is reportedly immunocompromised and currently going through chemotherapy, and his father is still recovering from open-heart surgery, putting both of them at high risk for severe illness and possibly death should they contract COVID-19. Not only that, but Giancarlo lives with them.
Or rather, he lived with her until last weekend, when we was kicked out of the house.
A man claiming to be Giancarlo’s brother responded to his post by writing:
Find a new home because you’re not welcome at the one you currently live at. Complete disrespect for Mom & Dad’s lives, both who are very weak. Mom has chemo on Friday and you’re out doing this shit? Go live on your own and not under your parent’s roof where you can do whatever you like.
He also added that their father was still recovering from open-heart surgery, which he underwent last year. Then he threatened, “I’ll be standing at the door. He’s not walking through it.”
Twitter appears to be pleased with news of the eviction…
Sis is homeless now because he thought it would be cute to party in Fire Island in the middle of a pandemic and put his parents at risk 🤡 pic.twitter.com/Yfj4u3jm0M

Giancarlo Albanese (whose mom has cancer and chemo and in whose house he lives) thinks you, the public, are sheep… I guess he doesn’t yet realize that he’s the one getting shorn right now. #FireIsland #fireislandpines #COVIDIDIOTS pic.twitter.com/z9EyhwxM2q

Queerty has reached out to Giancarlo for comment. We will update this post if we hear back from him.

What a selfish ass. Probably figured if he did get his parents sick he would inherit a house. Really glad the brother stepped in, his poor parents!
Chrisk
I always kind of figured most of those juvenile trolls were just shitheads living in their parents basement. Also sure fits the profile.
Apparently he’s a currency analyst who works at everythingfx. Yet he still lives with his parents? I’m wondering if that job is as real as the other shithead Hannon’s was.
yup5hioop
it’s an online currency trading thing with huge subscription costs. IDK why anybody would use it but seems they do employ actual traders – he might be one of them or a subscriber
Chrisk
I looked a little bit. It’s a very generic job description. I could also say I’m a stock broker because I’ve traded on E-trade. Lol
yup5hioop
yeah I looked into everything a lot and I don’t think my comment will be posted for legal reasons and that’s fine. His career choices don’t really effect other people
Jake123
Karma.
wikidBSTN
What a piece of crap. ‘Nuff said.
mdrguy1
Justice served, but a quick glance at the brother’s social media reveals that he is an awful, far right, Trump-loving Republican. What an f’d up family. a QAnon gay fanatic who eschews masks and puts his parents at risk, and his Trump loving, gun-toting a-hole brother.
Chrisk
The brother could just be protecting his inheritance too. Wouldn’t surprise me with these types.
Cam
If the gay son isn’t wearing a mask, sounds like he could be a Trumper also.
DuMaurier
Well, that puts a damper on things, but still respect him for protecting his parents.
cjc1414
Seems like you’re the asshole if you’re thinking of voting for a brain dead ,do nothing (for over 50 years in politics), criminal ( he and son Hunter taking millions in pay offs), racist POS! What’s with the majority of gays, sooooo far left. Educate yourself man and see what it would be like to live in a socialist country!! Trump all the way in 2020!!
Chrisk
cjc1414
We already live in a socialist country dipshit. That is unless you pay for your own fire department or road. Jesus you maga’s are sooo stupid.
just1normalguy
Good for the parent’s, I am gay and I am in high risk group. I certainly would not let a stranger near me let alone my own kids knowing they have been irresponsible. They can do that from far away. When they choose to not care about my health and knowingly try to bring it to me. I would be left with no other but to do the same.. Have their stuff on lawn waiting for them . THey would not be welcome on
property until there is a cure.
Heywood Jablowme
Giancarlo, huh? Is he maybe Giancarlo85?
Chrisk
That goes a ways back. He lived in so-cal as I recall.
Same kind of personality though. Very opinionated and incapable of seeing anyone’s side but his own.
Mister P
The parents raised this POS so it sounds like they reaped what they sowed.
TomG
That is not always the case, many people overcame their disadvantages or had the advantages and threw them away because of their friends.
startenout
Parents can be great and still raise a human that decides to become this king of dumpster fire, just like being born to bad parents doesn’t destine you to being a bad person.
stanhope
Well Ms Thang is out on her well used ass. I wonder if any of her trade will take her in. I doubt it. Dumb bitches like that are usually only good to the last moan or swallow. Bye karen and take your fake vuitton with you….already the air smells better.
jrod713
When ANYONE uses a term as stupid as “new world order”, it’s a safe bet they’re dwelling in their parents’ basement or trailer home.
TomG
You left out about them saying the words “shadow government”
fur_hunter
Some people are nothing but worthless pieces of S HIT. And he’s one of them. And as Jeff Foxworthy would say. “Here’s your SIGN!”
TomG
The *ssh*le got exactly what he deserved. And maybe he will know understand about this thing called Karma.
justgeo
Hope he dies over a subway grate!
justgeo
Take a good look and you tell me WTF?
cuteguy
You have to wonder what kind of ppl these two ppl were as parents. One is an irresponsible selfish loser who doesn’t care who he infects and the other is a selfish trump supporter. You reap what you sow. Shame on the parents. It’s their karma for being lousy parents
Aires the Ram
Goes to show you that all those “time outs”, in place of a good old fashioned ass beating, haven’t worked so well. This kind of thing, multiplied millions of times over, is what happens when children are raised with no discipline no respect, and little to no consequences for their bad behavior.
SPEEDOSWIMMER
Irresponsible, entitled, delusional, self-centered self-obsessed self-absorbed SELFISH a$$hole Maskhole Covidiot is now homeless.
KARMA!!!
justwannaleaveonecomment
It would be really funny if he didn’t actually live at home and the guy who responded was just a troll pretending to be his brother.
radiooutmike
While to me at least, it’s understandable that the parties happened.
Hey, I’m hot, I’m young and I’m horny; hey bud, let’s party! I get it. And the ones under 25 don’t have a fully formed frontal lobe yet. The ones over never grew up. So, yeah. Why not, party if it’s only you during a pandemic? I get it, I don’t understand it and I don’t agree with it.
But the kid who has a momma on chemo and a dad recovering from heart attack SHOULD get it. If I know my Italian-American brethren, I bet his momma still washes and irons his clothes, makes him bracciole and capicola sandwiches whenever he wants. He should know better.
ShiningSex
Idiots don’t know better that’s why they’re idiots!
woodroad34
I think it’s a generaltional thing…my parents were more responsible than me and my sister and I are waaay more responsible than my kind-hearted sister’s daughter, who will not hear how to be responsible (she’s had 3 kids by the age of 20) and thinks it’s alright to carry a gun into a bar (she was living in Missouri, where open-carry is legal,before she moved back in with my sister at the age of 30). She leaves my sister to take care of her kids, while she goes out and bar-hops, because she thinks she’s owed it.
Heywood Jablowme
“And the ones under 25 don’t have a fully formed frontal lobe yet.”
It’s important to remember that this is NOT TRUE. It’s just Reefer Madness anti-marijuana propaganda that somehow took on a life of its own, despite it being untrue and long after the vast majority of Americans have decided they want marijuana to be legalized.
ShiningSex
He’s a moron. Doesn’t care about others’ lives. So F*ck that queen. He’s a disgrace. So are the rest that attend such gatherings.
joelk57
This arrogant little POS should never be allowed back in his parents home. I don’t care about the brother being a Trumptard. They will be crashing and burning when Trumps dumped in the polls. This tired ass Prig of a son these parents have needs to have just this dose of reality find your own place to live PopTart!!!
Me2
It’s really disturbing how some people are so cavalier about putting other people’s lives in danger. This goes beyond selfishness, it’s almost criminal.
ChadDarnell
The asshole made a 13 minute video just now on his Instagram and he’s a whackadoodle. Out there where the trains don’t run.
Storm.Charles
If that’s not some gay trash, I don’t know what it is!
G R
What a little bag-o-douche, and you couldn’t pay me to immerse myself in that petri dish called Fire Island even when we’re in the middle of a pandemic.
gavo92
Living with his parents? How old is he? what a total loser. Still partying? haha I moved out my parents house at 19, opened my own business at 23. I don’t drink or go out either, what a trashy gay
barryaksarben
New World Order? so this jackass who obviously does not care about anyone else even his parents who he is living with is already so stupid as to believe right wing conspiracy theories. WHAT a dope. SO QNON, pizzagate , birtherism, flat earth, science is fake are all his new friends
batesmotel
And 740 people like his post. Good people barely even get 20 likes on a post.
Cam
On his twitter he’s retweeting QAnon B.S. , Trump support and attacks on Democrats.
Anyone surprised that a selfish, spoiled fool who has no concern about harming others is a Republican?
fresnoman4man
I’m 73, “celebrating” my first anniversary of triple bypass (July 8, 2019) and a stroke on Oct. 17th. But I agree with most of the Fire Island guy’s points that you all are outdoing one another to be the bitchiest queen to self righteously revile. First, the masking and social distancing and PCR tests are not validated by scientific protocol. There are a lot of special interests who are massively profiting from assigning ALL deaths as a Covid deaths or ALL symptoms as Covid symptoms. I’m beyond the age of partying but I’d befriend him for having the intelligence to rise above the inane dissidence of this queendom. When I was young like him, I was booted out by my father while recovering from hepatitis I got from sharing a joint. That was my also my coming out. I survived the HIV panic of the 80s and I may die of old age but it won’t be from the mythical Covid.
startenout
Haha let’s hope you do.
mecmass
You are sadly misinformed.
The Covid-19 cases and deaths reported in the CDC’s statistics are only cases that were confirmed by testing
But by all means, feel free to keep spewing your right wing bullshit and trying to politicize a disease that doesn’t give a rat’s ass that you’re an anti-masker. Go ahead, prove Darwin’s laws.
Cam
@fresnoman4man
Oh please, you troll accounts ALWAYS come in here with the “I”m a woman, but I agree that women shouldn’t have rights” or “I”m a gay man but I agree that gays shouldn’t be allowed to marry” or “I”m trans but I think transitioning should be illegal”.
1. You aren’t fooling anybody
2. If you’re going to make claims, try not to make ones that are obvious lies. Masking etc. has actually been reviewed and has full scientific support.
But it’s cute you think people on this site are as ignorant as the Trumpers on the pages you usually go to.
CurtisIsTheOne
@CAM What YOU said, but much more articulately than I could ever say. So, THANK YOU for some “truthiness”. Peace be to you.
Larryinnyc
Everyone must practice good hygiene in public by wearing a mask and do the right thing. You can’t let one evening jeopardize your life or anyone else life by being irresponsible This is similar to the AIDS problem. Use protection and you won’t get it. Look out for the next guy as they will look out for you
nm4047
doesn’t give an indication of his age, but, if he’s old enough to go to fire Is and pay the cost associated, he’s equally old enough to be out of his parent home. Just another selfish entitled little prick. Home the time with a couple of his closest friends was worth it.
Toofie
To be young, “immortal” and stupid.
woodroad34
I think he’s the ‘baby’ of the family, who wasn’t given enough responsibility growing up and the brother had to do everything. His personality fits that dynamic of being a “Just Jack”.
mecmass
I’ll never understand sheer stupidity. Maybe he’s on some serious drugs.
mecmass
It’s assholes like him that perpetuate the stereotypes of self-centered, socially irresponsible gay men that we were finally getting past after the wild promiscuity of the 80’s and 90’s when HIV was rampant. Society is just beginning to accept LBGTQ individuals as “normal” people, and he does something like this. It makes me so angry,
yup5hioop
all you need to say is #Qanon and the rest falls into the place. He’s been undergoing years of propaganda. I don’t really care about most of it or their political tactics but this covid denial is serious. IDK why a gay man is thinking the MAGA Qanon witch hunters won’t come for him next. Trump already showed his hand with trans rights.
yup5hioop
BitConnnect!!!!!!! (great meme if you’ve missed it)

Natural selection at work, I would say. Darwin would be proud.
madridstangelo
This guy is just another idiot. Feckless, reckless, and beyond full of himself. His ‘explanation’ video on Insta is A. juvenile, and nothing more than an insipid display of self entitlement, B. COMPLETELY COUNTER to his ‘warning’ and ‘observation’ that the world has succumbed to ‘sheep-dom’, revealing that he himself is nothing more than a gay sheep. Were he a man of ‘any’ conviction, he’d simply let his actions speak for themselves…which they do in aces. That he takes to Social Media to clear the air….HILARIOUS! god only knows what he thinks about HIV/AIDS…wait, I know…another ‘lab’ virus.

Young people in the midst of their mating season have never been known for their selflessness or good judgement.
Some may remember the outrage prompted by the closing of the Baths at the start of the Aids Crisis.
In our culture it is perceived to be “sexy” when a young man wants what he wants when he wants it….
-and up until now, being a jerk about it hasn’t been against the law,
Chrisk
That’s a great sociological point. Narcissism and selfishness is kind of a feature of the young. That’s why many just don’t bother to vote. Like if it doesn’t directly effect me I don’t give a shit.
When I was in my 20s/30s I took so many unnecessary risks. Drugs, sex,,I just didn’t give a shit. All for the pursuit of pleasure. I didn’t really care what anyone thought either. Thankfully I grew up. Way too long of a process though.
If twitter was around to record my thought’s back then I’d be sooooo embarrassed today. Yikes.
