Thematically this book spoke to me. This book is eco queer. And exposed me to concepts, biology and the constructions of trans bodies in relation to ecology.

One of the more experienced Poets in the group. Queer and bicultural. Fijian Indian background. Probably the most ravaging take down on the writers life and the struggles of what it is to juggle the everyday,

Paris Rosemont is someone you should see live. Their work is funny, skirts and confronts racism, Saphic desire and the mundanity of love. They go into multiple different Asian forms.

Last Thursday I hosted an event for @incisionpress.bsky.social. Four queer poets, all from culturally diverse backgrounds and the work that I read was so exciting. Some of the work, centred themes rather the forms, some of the work was pure ratbaggery.
The only people I'm talking to MAFS about are my gay friends and some straight male factory workers at my work.
Am I dumb for sometimes reading The Line of Beauty as a normalising treaty against ones who prioritise aesthetics above all else.
Like how hot am I? Am I buy his books because hot? Am I become an online gay life coach hot? What is my level here people.
Okay yes, I like going to them but observing
Fairfax media are still reporting the war on Iran more than they did on the genocide but they still aren't reporting the specific cruelty of Israel and US and how they targetting civilians
Where and how do you pick them my love
One of bucket list items is watching Kath and Kim with American gays that have never seen it before.
I was walking through Ramadan nights to get groceries and there were 10 - 15 gay bears just hanging in the middle street, air kissing. I gotta say, that's the world I wanna live in.
Fanks
He is a Semtex Aristocrat.
He's the nephew of the AG in the NT. He got home detention for killing a man with his car on purpose then bragging about it and seriously injuring another man. They were both Aboriginal and it was a hate crime.
Went and saw Varoufakis and what I took away from it is that he has a Pedigree, is a thinker who is spot on about Techno-Feudalism and still has edges of hope.
Dubai has always been a city made of Salt.
So it was 1 precision strike, then a weekend and then 4 days and now they are saying war til September.
I'm on the bus home. The streets are riddled with potholes. The most high dense low income place in Australia and Chris Minns still hasn't got the trains working after 2 years.
Amazing what the Jewish people of Europe used to be. Karl Marx, changed the world. Freud invented psychoanalysis and helped the world. Einstein theoretical physics. Now their descendants in Israel are ghouls and jokes, mired in the small thinking and violent nationalism.
But the question begs, when the defensive ammunitions are low, who will the US prioritise? Oil Assets? Bases? Or Israel?
I can totally see why Big Hollywood is trying to make Connor Storrie our next big Heart Throb movie star. He has the classic actor pedigree of a child that moved around a lot, he's got old fashioned movie star looks too and is interested in proper, capitol F film.
That Tory ugh.
The thing about working in min wage service in Western Sydney, is seeing inequality directly in my workplace. I see families spend min $400 a week on eating out, which is my rent, they drive upwards of 60 to 100. There a different way to conceptualise class especially in service.
I was following some gay artists, but they were too much in the masc, make goods for a luxury market but art is an extension of their vanity.
Apparently during times of war more people take up knitting.
I think it's time to think about alternatives to Mardi Gras. Maybe it's time to give up the parade.
That better be for me
Ugh I'm at work and I've seen two gays who centre straight people and they are such unhappy boys.
