Finally finished my contribution to #CorsetRevivalProject #upcycling contemporary corsets saved from landfill. I’ve highlighted the Arctic Whaling Trade where the whalebone/baleen came from. Working on a 3d base has been a real challenge!

modesty laws prevented showing even one lousy frame of John Waters' PINK FLAMINGOS (1972) in the trailer, so the only footage in it is of people reacting to a screening they just came out of. every single type of extant queer person is contained in the specific sequences I have selected here

I enjoyed #TheWarBetweentheLandandtheSea, but I did keep getting flashbacks to that Simpsons Treehouse of Horror where dolphins take over Springfield.

yes yes we all know about the Edmund Fitzgerald, rest her soul, but did you know about the ship laden with explosives that sank in the mouth of the Thames in 1944 and could explode at any minute and which attempts to disarm keep failing

Labour once again pander to the far right. Will it bring them a single vote from the Reform/Tory rump? No. Will it lose them more from the centre and left? In huge numbers. Madess. Do these thick fuckwits ever learn?

unbelievable weasel of a man, a failed government barely a year after being elected, and a disgrace to Labour's heritage. the cabinet should commit collective seppuku to erase their dishonor.

I dont think there's been a worse government decision in terms of sheer immediate injustice, time-wasting, overreach for quite a while in the UK. lots that had *longer term* implications but this has been a shameful disaster.
