Dramatic lesbian librarian prone to fun facts and flights of whimsy. Working in academic libraries and always down to talk smack about Lord Alfred Douglas.

I worry that the young queers are losing the transformative, liberating joy of identifying with the villain.

Hey @VictoriaPolice, you are trusting people like this with access to lethal weapons. Perhaps you need to rethink that.

Cool, great job at making already vulnerable and isolated kids more at risk with no means of reaching out to community and support outside the home. This could be a death sentence for some queer kids.

We are serious about keeping Australian children safe - that’s why the Albanese Government has today announced we will enforce a minimum age for access to social media and other relevant digital platforms.

The literal face of state violence in Naarm / Melbourne. This is one of the cops firing rubber bullets at the staunch folk picketing the merchants of death at Land Forces.

From Gaza to Gadigal, from Naarm to Nablus - the resistance to colonisation & genocide will continue!
