thank you Vic Rodriguez for gorgeously and hilariously repping the queer to over 30 to birder pipeline. bowing down before the stunning Nicola Beck for speaking truth and rage to the power of words 🙌🏻 and @aubreyblakeledge.bsky.social for bringing the sound of giant tortoises fucking into my life
i got a big job rejection today, and it felt like shit. but they told me i was in the top 1.25% of applicants, and i’m trying to be proud of getting that far regardless. if only pride paid the bills eh?
im going to rome this weekend, and i’d love to go dancing with other queer n trans folk… i’d love some tips on where to go out, can bluesky help me?! (also down for non dancing reccomendations!)

last night i bumped into the legendary Beverly Glenn Copeland in the street, a few hours before i saw him live - then this morning i swam in the sea and read my book on the beach. Brighton you always steal my heart 💖
I've rarely seen a documentary filmmaker or journalist be this blunt before www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...
![What about this notion that after your movie came out, if one thought logically, the movie should have taken Jackson down. But in fact his popularity rose after your movie, and streaming numbers on Jackson’s music rose and they only continue to grow. Since then, we’ve had the MJ Broadway musical, which is a huge hit and tours. So what does that say?
It says that people don’t care that he was a child molester. Literally, people just don’t care.
None of the allegations in Leaving Neverland have been seriously challenged, right? But there was enough noise online from those simplistic debunking [videos] that people found it easy to give themselves permission to like Michael Jackson’s music again, if they ever stopped liking it.
I think a lot of people just love his music and turn a deaf ear. And short of having actual video evidence of Michael Jackson engaged in sexual intercourse with a 7-year-old child, I don’t know what would be sufficient to change these people’s minds.
I’m not trying to stop anyone from consuming his music. I’ve never advocated canceling Michael Jackson. Book burning is for the Middle Ages and the Taliban. I just think if you’re going to enjoy his music, let’s also consider the fact that he liked to have sex with children and see how that affects your enjoyment, in all honesty.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:474ldquxwzrlcvjhhbbk2wte/bafkreiaufcnfed7nmawt4xwmsbcujdniclq7kyg54rho4gpyzhlmfwfyk4)
This interview is really upsetting, but in a way that's important: www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...
Alright, today's 🏴☠️ drop is depressing but necessary Here are both episodes of LEAVING NEVERLAND (2019), the documentary the Jackson Estate and HBO don't want you to see:

Scottish Labour publishing the transphobic slur "biologically male" is abhorrent!
Péter Magyar victory speech: "We want to make a country where no one is persecuted because they think differently or because someone loves in a different way to others." He may not have campaigned as a liberal. But this is a huge change of direction and rhetoric from Orbán’s anti-LGBTQ+ crusade.
I’ve decided to try and give bluesky another go, mainly as i’m trying to wean myself off instagram but also because i’m currently having a lot of feel bigs and sometimes it helps to just write them down and throw them out into the abys.

The Glass Menagerie at @theyardtheatre.bsky.social is fucking beautiful - think i’m gonna need to write more over on substack because it was my first revisit of my favourite play since transitioning and my god it hits so much harder when you stop identifying with Tom and become Laura…

I’ve had a year full of rejections so far, and i’ve really been questioning my place in this industry but today i got a voice note from a playwright i don’t know, whose brilliant play i had just seen - explaining how the show and their career was a direct result of a group i set up.
Very powerful, and very much a play of two halves, 'Otherland' at the Almeida Theatre ✍️ by Chris Bush, of 'Standing At The Sky's Edge' fame, features an all-female cast led by one of my stage faves, Jade Anouka with Fizz Sinclair. At heart romantic and inclusive, it also leans into myth and futurism
