Exactly. Before the recent influx, Bluesky might not have lasted as long as it did without the lgbtq+ and sw communities which took root here.
Remember Bluesky:
Is it just me, or does "13 Going on 30" feel like a horror movie that was rewritten to be a rom-com?

"Ararat" is one of my all-time faves. On one level, it's specifically tackling the Armenian genocide, but on another, it's tackling the subject of history itself: how we remember it, how we forget it, how we preserve it, how we bury it, & how we're traumatized by it.

In case anyone missed it last week. I made a teaser trailer for a mockumentary feature I wrote.
Opulence: A group of popular travel vloggers fight for the most views when they all embark on the inaugural sailing of the largest cruise ship in the world.
Made with $0, just my husband and parents. It's mortifying. I can't act. Our accents are very fake. The full script has a large ensemble cast. But I wanted to do SOMETHING, so I made this teaser, for a mockumentary feature I wrote last year.

Curse My Name - Blind Guardian

A truly exceptional masterpiece of a song, even for them. The layered instrumental and choral build-up throughout the middle of this track is some of my all-time favourite music.

Even more awful, right wing groups tried to pin it on a trans woman who doesn't even live in the area and doxxed her. The shooter is apparently already dead from a self inflicted wound.

Finally watched the start of Fringe, one of my partner’s faves. It just hit me that the setup reminds me of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” if it was for a slightly older audience and was sci fi instead of supernatural. Broyles and Dr Bishop are two sides of Gyles, Peter is part Willow part Angel, etc.

Age verification?

My first job was a clerk in a video rental store chain which wasn’t Blockbusters.
Age verification?

I would regularly rent movies from Blockbuster.

I played the first Call of Duty at launch

“Bones of Crows” by Marie Clements deserved most of the Oscar nominations that “Killers of the Flower Moon” later got. At the very least.

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

One of the wickedest things Wes Streeting has ever done is push politically convenient falsehoods about suicide rates amongst young trans people. We have new data from the National Child Mortality Database that exposes the truth he tried to cover up.

lots of people (on Both Sides™) had fun with Trump's “transgender operations on illegal aliens that are in prison” debate line without stopping to think, even for one second, about the humanity of the actual people involved
NEW: It’s difficult to account for the abuses trans immigrants face in ICE custody after Trump destroyed safeguards, oversight agencies, and data about detainees.

But 3 trans migrants told me what it’s really like: Medical neglect. Solitary confinement. Harassment. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

The number of trans youth suicides in the UK quadrupled in 2021 following significant restrictions in access to care. The NHS tried to cover this up with a fake report that tried to hide the truth.
