The universe has its plans for us. We're still here for a reason. Let's live well so Death will tremble to take us. Don't take each day or people for granted. Don't waste your time on idiot people. Live your life to be happy in whatever makes you happy. Wear sunscreen.
Have good days all 🖤

Really proud to be the LGBT+ Trailblazer of the year.
And so proud of the real trailblazers - like my boyfriend - who works in palliative care.
Our NHS workers, our teachers, our cleaners.
The people who keep our country running.
And LGBT+ History month matters. Representation matters.

If anyone is feeling generous we're about £20 off our target!
TJ'S football team had a sponsor for their rain jackets but because it is a pub (though definitely more restaurant than pub) the FA said they can't sponsor them. My colleagues suggested pooling the money, so if you can help at all, I'd be very very grateful

Football Club rain jackets
My son's U10s football (soccer 😉) is in need of some training jackets and they cost around £500 for 25 of them printed with the team's badge and a sponsor on it.
I'm looking for YOU to sponsor us!

Your dad looking for a new girlfriend ... 😌
Males engage in a two-week-long sex marathon with as many females as they can find. Each frenzied encounter can last up to 14 hours. As soon as he’s done with one female, he moves on to another leaving himself no time to eat, sleep or recharge his batteries

A lovely reflection on the life and career of gay filmmaker John Schlesinger, whose queer films, starting at a time when on-screen homosexuality was vanishingly rare, include Midnight Cowboy (first X-rated movie to win Best Picture), Sunday Bloody Sunday and the Madonna-starring The Next Best Thing.
‘We thought Midnight Cowboy might end everybody’s career’: the diverse, disruptive, Oscar-winning cinema of John Schlesinger
In the 60s and 70s, he pioneered kitchen-sink drama and made bisexuality mainstream. So why did the director end up making Tory ads? Those who knew him best reveal all

So young white women must breed, old white women must shut up and cook (and clean behind the fridges), and black and brown women will be deported.
