America is fascist now and people are creaming their pants over criminals. (Yes I mean Luigi). And over here public protest has been conflated with terrorism. I’m feeling tired as fuck. I showed The Jellicle Barbie which she had managed to miss due to global pandemics. She spent most of it going “what the fuck?” … Read More
Today I finished the tale of a dead man. It’s banal but feels significant in that way that life does sometimes. I was with LT. We got to talking about Feles Umbra and that she had toasted him at the symbl last Saturday. It was through Leth that she’d met him, I had thought she … Read More
We symbled on Saturday. It’s a modern Heathen drinking ritual, part of a Blot sometimes but something that stands alone and has enough of a grounding that atheists and other religious types can join in. You roughly stand in a circle pass the mead horn around and each person toasts three rounds: the first for … Read More

Ha! I did this last time too – talked about artists who’d fit today yesterday! In anycase, I have a real soft spot for Seasons of Love from RENT.
I mean my favourite is probably Miss Vanjie… but not for any other reason than her instincts to grab for whatever worked and then ride that train home. Which I suspect I could probably think of someone more ‘worthy’ on the other hand – aren’t we all worthy and isn’t a role model just another … Read More
I always fall back on But I’m A Cheerleader because it’s an excellent romcom. I have a weakness for Bound too because I like my lesbian gangster movies to come with lockouck earrings. I don’t do long slog queer movies or grinding lgbt history. I’ll read my history and talk to queer elders but give … Read More
