@RandyRainbow I saw your parody with the incomparable @PattiLuPone and got to write about it for the Star Observer - the oldest LGBTQI publication in Australia!
“...he is no slouch in the talent department either with a Disney Princess voice many villains would be jealous of!”
I sung a Cappella at the open mic night this week 🫣🫢 which seems frightening enough but I had also challenged myself to do it as the third and final song and I was going to do it without getting a starting note - I plucked that sucker out of thin air! Missed it by that much 🤏
@_DollyDiamond Haha that dig into the archives is still with mum in Cairns, along with my first pair of tap shoes 😝 ☺️ but here’s me about to tap up a storm on 42nd Street in the Cairns Choral Society’s production of, at 15 & in JCS at 16 both in the old Cairns Civic Theatre, long gone now! 🤩
@RealLyndaCarter I remember this because I write a piece about it at the time for the Star Observer, Australia’s oldest LGBTQI publication! https://t.co/6aIZYGbwT1
“You arrive amongst a growing crowd and the atmosphere doesn’t disappoint–the palpable feeling of acceptance in the air, no matter your size, shape, colour, sexual preference, or gender identity–on this night, u are hundreds of thousands of international hearts, beating as 1 🏳️🌈❤️🔥
'The importance of Mardi Gras, the spectacle and the warm embrace of acceptance - all of this was a wonder for a 26-year-old country boy from Cairns in the early 2000s.' https://t.co/3V4ANlj9mh
“I am a person of colour, I am a proud gay man, so I want to make sure that I showcase that in my work, just so that the younger generation coming up can see what we’d wished that we’d seen growing up, if that makes sense.” - Bass G Fam. It definitely does! @BassFamCreative
Bass G Fam, the incredible talent behind Bass Fam Creative and creative director behind the jaw-dropping spectacle that is his new show, Oracle, took some time out to chat with the Star Observer about wagging science, diversity and how proud his mum is! https://t.co/fxhvPTdz1G
“The 1st time u do it, u feel like u’ve hit the jackpot & then the vibe is weird, yr with 2 other single fellas which just makes it harder to tee up the energy because, like, why doesn’t that one look anything like his ancient profile pic & why is that one eating the potpourri”🫣
It’s the stuff sexy daydreams and night-time fantasies are made of; who hasn’t seen a dubiously acted porno with three willing participants getting their freak on? But as anyone who has stumbled through one can attest, it rarely works out like you’ve seen. https://t.co/9PDTuL5B71
I have opinions on rimming…”Once u let go of the perfectly natural concerns about cleanliness & what-ifs & really relax into the experience–it’s like the best massage you’ll ever get,except getting licked in such a confidential spot is enough to make even your eyeballs relax”😵💫
Because the anus has one of the densest bunch of nerve endings in the human body, it makes total sense that any kind of activity based around that cornucopia of pleasure centres is going to send the lucky recipient into paradigms of paradoxical pleasure. https://t.co/146k5tvgOX
@OfficialCapsis“honestly I feel like @AlboMP is definitely interested in music. I’ve met him several times & he’s been very nice to me, he responds, so I’m hopeful. At least you feel that Albanese has an interest.I always say a country without culture is not a country, it’s dead”
“Dr Kort had given a huge % of Grindr users the most amazing gift – to articulate their preference at the beginning of the interaction because it’s right there on the profile, rather than when it’s too late to avoid an awkward conversion after the fun and games had started!” ➡️💟
“Sides prefer to kiss, hug and engage in oral sex, rimming, mutual masturbation and rubbing up and down on each other, to name just a few of the sexual activities they enjoy.” https://t.co/sRNaS9oa64
“Perhaps, because of the fetishisation of lesbian sex for the hetero male gaze in porn, the sight of two ladies holding hands in public seems to be more accepted, whereas the sight of two men holding hands is enough to stop traffic in all but the most urban of Australian centres”
It’s such a simple human gesture, capable of telegraphing so much and yet this elementary gesture of friendship, love, affection, support and so many other basic human needs is off-limits, in public at least, to the majority of queer people in Australia https://t.co/AlSdqOyXjm
“Besides a hankering for world peace, what other characteristics make for an ideal Mr Australasian Bear, according to Walton?”
