RIP Terence Stamp
Yes, he was Zod, but he was also a fucking trans icon
His performance as Bernadette in PRISCILLA was a huge influence on me in my gender journey
I'll miss him dearly 💔

Just concluded my keynote at Pride In London's Human Rights Forum.
I have announced today publicly that I now see it as my sad duty to make an evidence based report to Genocide Watch and The Lemkin Institute requesting investigation into the systematic oppression of the trans community of the UK.

You know how Cher did a performance of West Side Story where she played all the parts? I want a version of Wicked with Björk singing all the parts.

It's been such a messy situation from the start, but it has such potential to be a great part of the city with the right approach to running it.

What next for Galway's Pálás cinema?
It was perhaps apt that the final film screened at Galway's Pálás cinema last Thursday night was Mulholland Drive.

Some photos of the beautiful Pálás (Picture Palace) in Galway from when it first opened and an exterior shot back when it was unfinished, stalled with financing issues that plagued the whole build.

Chappell Roan is completely correct! Musicians are workers, and we deserve fair payment & dignity in our workplace. UMAW introduced the Living Wage for Musicians Act with Rep. Rashida Tlaib to build a fairer music industry and increase wages for musicians. We need your help to make it happen!
"Record labels need to treat their artists as valuable employees with a livable wage and health insurance and protection. Labels, we got you, but do you got us?"

Happy winter solstice, in the north. A question in honor of the returning light: If we are in a dark time now, what are some seeds of light being tended - maybe quietly, maybe in the dark - with the potential to ignite something bright and life sustaining?
