There will never be another cult classic. If your movie or show underperforms, it will be removed from sight, and that eventual groundswell of support that's turned everything from Blade Runner to Heathers from disastrous flops to huge successes will never find it. The end.

Lily will forever walk the alleyways of our hearts. She was a British institution and cultural icon.
As drag faces backlash, fuelled by click bait and a homophobic fringe, let us take some comfort today from these wise words:
"If I wanted your opinion, I'd slap it outta ya."

What a fucking life led. Truly. Back when the Met stormed into the RVT for it being a gay bar, all wearing rubber gloves to “protect” themselves during the HIV crisis, Paul O’Grady was on stage as Lily and immediately quipped “Looks like we have help with the washing up!” Iconic.

[James barr @jamesbarrcomedy]

Paul O’Grady was in the trenches fighting for our community during the HIV & AIDS epidemic, she took drag mainstream, she made our mums howl with laughter and normalised gay people on TV by being utterly vile. I can’t imagine a world without her. A truly brave and hilarious man x

For queer people, everything we do is 'political': Our sex lives, pronouns... all 'political'.

But when we are killed?
Suddenly it's not political anymore.
Suddenly we're ghoulish for 'making it political'.
Suddenly it's just a sad random thing.
How. Queer.

It’s happening now. A petition to remove LGBT content from the education curriculum.
To all those who deny the homophobia arising from the trans moral panic: WAKE UP.
They want Section 28 all over again. When our trans siblings suffer, the entire LGBTQ+ community suffers.

I know it’s good Kate Bush is having a resurgence and everything, but I’m in the gym with a spin class going on next to me and the spin instructor just said “and remember guys, we’re all just running up that hill, so let’s turn it up to 11” and played the song #StrangerThings

[mikey @shenanigreat]

gays please just remember that we have an Oscar campaign to influence in her favour very shortly

Hard hitting news headline from @Google. Hope they discuss it on @BBCNewsnight

[Rob Barnes @WhoBobMeRob]

Just a reminder - this all started because Channel 4 News ran an item about Boris Johnson’s dad that he didn’t like, and because they replaced him with a block of ice when he didn’t turn up at their election debate.

Not because anyone else wants it. https://t.co/FoLw4B5KKE

Today.

This is how serious he takes his role in the middle of a European war, a worldwide pandemic and the spread of poverty.

[Jessie Earl @jessiegender]

Just this week, JK Rowling has vilified a Wales Police LGBTQ Network doing community outreach after a man was killed in a homophobic hate crime as "virtue signaling" and also spread misinformation from a now deleted Twitter account about transgender detransition. Its Monday.

@jxeker My co-worker told me yesterday that omicron is clearly a hoax because “if you rearrange the letters in ‘Omicron B’, it’s spells ‘No Crimbo’”. Where’s the “B” coming from babe?

[alexandre afonso @alexandreafonso]

This is extraordinary.

[Jack D 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @JackDunc1]

Say a gay kid grows up in a homophobic religious home where every week they're told who they are is a 'sin'. They're brainwashed into self loathing, so they seek 'conversion' from the Church

Under Tory plans, that qualifies as consent.

How can that be ok in a civilised society?

No country who emptied shelves at the first sign of panic last year should look down their noses at people fleeing from actual war and terror👍
