Still thinking about this hypnotic, camp and entirely uncalled-for disco cupboard, hidden away in a brilliant Swedish toy museum. 🪩
Doctor Who returned to our screens 20 years ago today. A 16-year absence, and then a 16-year-old me, watching ‘Rose’ in my bedroom with my younger sister.

This trailer is why.

Cried multiple times writing this tribute to The Vivienne, a pillar of not just drag but queer art as a whole. They will be so, so missed.

Give this every award going.

Invent some new awards, and give this those.

Retire existing awards.
Wait a while.
What a while longer.
Ceremoniously bring them back.
Then retroactively give this ALL of those awards.

Thank you. WTF?

Went to a Swedish art gallery.

Got 6 mins into S2 E2 of The Bear before giving up. There's a great show in there but I feel like it's trolling me.

The tropes are troping + it's very loud. If I wanted to hear that much arguing, and people shouting over each other, I'd un-repress my childhood memories. No chef.

Finally saw the Heathers musical.
Love a soundtrack that fully leans into cult musical sounds, with a tongue firmly pressed into its cheek every now and then.

Shamed to say I’ve not seen the film, so experiencing the plot… camp. But also
