MacSabbath, Gutter Mouth, Flummox. One of the weirdest shows I’ve ever been to. Also one of the raddest.

Grats @protonjon.bsky.social! As a fellow internet creator who came out as a Claire online (see comic rant) I hope that your joy outweighs your challenges. I suspect that it will. <3

Any Philly folk in here? I’m looking to explore the Gayborhood tonight, and I’d love some recommendations!
