Never seen it! So I saved the link and treat myself when I have a moment. And yes, it would make a spectacular play!
You have just made my day!!!
If youβre after an easy, camp as Xmas watch today, try this.
Written by Carrie Fisher, with Debbie Reynolds, Elizabeth Taylor, Shirley MacClaine & Joan Collins playing has-been Hollywood stars on the comeback trail.
Itβs like watching a play in the theatre, these women are amazing!!!

Happy New Year! π₯³
Morning all!
Just want to share with my American friends how the Australians respond to a shooting tragedy. Action, rather than thoughts and prayers.

Interesting data on a natural antibody mutation that may provide a new HIV treatment / prevention pathway.

Me aged about 30, shortly before my HIV diagnosis.
Me a couple of weeks ago.
I was diagnosed with HIV in 1998, two years after effective treatment for HIV had been identified.
The medication was still very new.
I was told I could expect to live another 20 years, which at the time was more than had been granted to many of my friends.
HIV treatment works. Tell everyone.
20 year old me posing in a sleeveless vest and black ripped jeans. My hair flows in waves and is particularly awesome.
Me yesterday, mid-workout. Iβm wearing shorts and a red vest. My thighs look big because Iβm kneeling.
As a young gay man I did not expect to get old.
As a result of HIV and homophobia, many of my generation did not.
Ageing is a privilege.
Pics: Aged 20 in 1988 and 58 now.

Abstract floral painting that turned out pretty cool despite starting out hideous.
Painted tonight instead of sketching and actually pretty pleased. This went from being βthe ugliest thing Iβve ever seen and made in my entire lifeβ to βoh, oh, this turned out pretty good!β π I love art.

Trumpβs funding cuts to international efforts to end the global threats of malaria, TB and HIV, will result in millions of preventable deaths.
Each death is someoneβs son or daughter, husband, wife, parent or friend.
In the current news cycle, the US Supreme Court refusing to revisit marriage equality counts as good news.
Love is still love, after all.
