The original meaning (and still the formal meaning) of 'queer' is actually 'strange' or 'weird'. The excerpt is probably from a few decades ago or was written/spoken within a formal context. The new, more common meaning of 'queer' was born from old beliefs of a prejudiced society, where homossexual people were considered to be 'weird', therefore it's a pejorative term, and it's generally not received well by the homessexual community. As the word 'gay', which originally means 'glad', but with time had its meaning changed first colloquially, then gramatically ('glad' does not imply a pejorative connotation, however).
So the meaning of the stanza wouldn't change it the words mentioned were used intead.
Dear Malcolm,
Houston ain’t that bad but it doesn’t have you. They’re known for BBQ which is too messy and burnt for me but the rodeo is is here. I went yesterday they had a huge carnival! With all kinds of games and oh my god the food, you would’ve died of happiness. Then there were bulls and sheep you could visit but I couldn’t bring myself to watch the bull riders. School starts up next week, wish me luck
Xoxo, Lila
