I’m off to hear an orchestra play Holst’s The Planets tonight, which features in the best 8 minutes of television ever produced.

Go watch the BLUEY episode β€œSleepytime”!

The text of a poem written by the account holder:

Blood moon

The first wonder of the night
was the moon itself,
dark and purple-red like a bruise,
strange and still and silent.

The second wonder was us
unshod on the cool grass,
aware of the infinite cosmos,
looking up in mouthless awe.

The third wonder
was our little pics of blurry dots 
(unimpressive, unremarkable)
sprinkled on the internet.
Each a disappointment,
but each a small request
to be noticed β€” 
a tiny bruise.

Are we allowed to write poems?

πŸ€·πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ #HowGayIs THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE? It has 2 gays and some man butts

Both this film and HAMNET have ye olde women experiencing the prolonged horrors of childbirth and grief. One cures it by going to a play. The other by founding a religion based on celibacy and arm grunting

Loved them both

Another good strategy (which helped me win in days of yore) is β€œHow many boys on this team would I smooch?” Largest number is the winning team

But it is nice to finish all your crafts and then sit back to do your annual rewatch of The Muppets’ Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras. Beaker’s Joel Creasey is a highlight

Christmas is often a terrible time surrounded by people you can’t stand who you’re supposed to love while cheesy music plays incessantly and everywhere is crowded and it’s actually just a good-vibes-covered shell for rampant commercialism and capitalism

I used to be a high school English teacher, and I hate the book. So Emerald Fennell can do what she wants to the text

But there’s an upper-class-straight-woman archness in her movies that is THIS CLOSE 🀏 to shocking and high camp, but isn’t

I’ll keep watching her movies, but I’ll keep wanting more

πŸ€·πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ #HowGayIs β€œWUTHERING HEIGHTS”? It’s not. This expensive, decorative sex-melodrama aspires to transgressive camp, but falls short. It’s fine. It’s a love story about an insular group of untreated mentally ill people unavoidably ruining each other’s lives β€” which might be the gayest part about it

You’re only allowed to sing if you can do the choreography too
