An extract from Sebastian, performed by me and Sam Jarman at the @queertheatreuk.bsky.social showcase in July.
Sebastian is a short play that I wrote, prompted by the early deaths of three close friends in 2022.

Y’all let folks randomly report us for speaking out against racism and antisemitism. Please fix this. It’s ridiculous.

Hey @moderation.bsky.app
Do you guys also label leftist accounts that harass (primarily Black) Democrats or are you guys all leftists, too?
These labels are bogus and offensive.

Good take..
So, Aftyn Behn lost. And, I want to be crystal clear, that was expected.
Mark Green won the seat by 21 points back in November, and Trump won the district by 22. This is one of, if not the reddest district in Tennessee. We’ve been doing REALLY well this year,

My wife has been HIV+ for 34 years. She’s alive today b/c work of activists who destigmatized the virus, pushed medical science to adapt & find ways to treat it, & advocated for gov health programs that helped fund her care. The current U.S. regime may want to go back in time, but we won’t let them.

This time last year, I was on the South Lawn of the White House helping to lay out the AIDS Memorial Quilt.
This year the White House did nothing and the State Department instructed empoyees and grant recipients to “refrain from publicly promoting World Aids Day through any communication channels”

This morning I had the honor of helping lay out some panels of the #AIDS Memorial Quilt on the South Lawn of the White House. Seeing all these individual lives that were lost and knowing they are just a miniscule part of that great tapestry of loss is haunting.

After paying our rent today, we are officially tapped out on our savings. Nothing left. I still haven’t received my pension refund and it’s been a month. All it says is that the status is open. I don’t know when it will be approved.
