Good Lord.

Boogie Nights is the most fun one, and Phantom Thread and Licorice Pizzas are my favorite. That said, I love every PTA movie.

Truly, I felt relieved for my love of dirtbag country this week

First they tried to "cure" gayness. Now they're fixated on "healing" trans people.

If there is any hope I can offer to anyone, my parents are incredibly loving and supportive of me and my queerness now. It was a long journey, but people can do better.

Austin King @ahouseingotham.bsky.social · 1d

I feel incredibly strongly about this, both as a queer person and someone subjected to this as a minor. It fucking destroys you. It destroys your sense of self, and it destroys your relationship to your body.

Allow me to state this with my whole fucking chest as a victim of conversion therapy. It is incredibly harmful and a disgrace to us as a nation. Not only should it be banned, but anyone who practices it should be tried for assault.

One thing about American's widespread distrust and disapproval of the Supreme Court is that mainstream news coverage mostly doesn't dwell on stuff like standing, so people don't even begin to grasp how rigged the Court truly is www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10...

When you'd rather have a dead kid than a queer one, allowing conversion therapy practices makes total sense. They don't want to deal with a living queer kid; they want to mourn the imaginary one they don't have.

Keep George Michael's name out of your fuckin' mouth.

The most famous, wealthy white woman in the world self-consumes in a black hole of faux-victimhood and self-mythologization. One of the worst musical compositions of the decade and singularly representative of 2025. The world deserved this Hell and this slop.

Very pulp-y and trashy and gay

And the guys are hot.

I like Lev Ac Rosen's Evander Mills' books. They are queer noir mystery set in 1950s San Francisco. Sad sometimes but always hopeful

ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.
