After 3.5 months. I was among the final round of rejections, because people started reporting acceptances immediately afterward. Which is kind of bittersweet. They said I should send it to their regular magazine, which is a token market. I'll do that, if I can't sell it for more money elsewhere.
So it's back out, currently at the Queers Destroy SF issue of Lightspeed (because it's a different editorial team, and they said they'd read stories LS already rejected). After that, there's one more pro market left.
So if anyone knows about a market that wants a political story about disability and class starring a bisexual dock worker in space, let me know.
