Day 1: It's #Pride, y'all. That means Mal and I are back at watching a musical each day because we're #queerandhereformusicals
Our first musical: the 2022 Portuguese film, Will-O'-The-Wisp, an erotic musical fantasy featuring a prince who wants to be a firefighter.
Didn't love it.

I'm missing the @fsgays posts from Twitter SO MUCH. Is there anything comparable here, #figureskating friends? What other accounts should I be following?

Tonight's Skating Spectacular was a lovely, entertaining way to spend the evening! Getting to see these athletes perform (and ham it up) to music they clearly love was superb. #figureskating @usfigureskating.bsky.social
