i actually don’t think i have a singular favorite queer movie but i’m recing pride since it is lesser-known (despite having a great cast!). it’s based on a true story and highlights a beautiful intersection of the labor and gay lib movements! when i went to london i visited the bookstore from the film (gay’s the word). bound is also a favorite of mine! :) i recently watched saving face and loved that one too. the incredibly true adventures of two girls in love (which i have rec’d before) is also a favorite. bodies bodies bodies, bottoms, jennifer’s body, and but i’m a cheerleader as well!

cute and is based off of a true story of when london gay activists supported welsh miners on strike! the main characters are mostly gay (and a few lesbians!!) :) it’s one of my fav movies (i linked the trailer but it doesn’t do it justice)

anyone who hasn't seen this, i don't care about the list you have in ur notes app, watch this one next. about a gay rights group (comprised of flaming gays) in 80s london who support this tiny welsh town over the course of the the miners strikes. its a true story and they portrayed it in such an earnest way. its funny, and it hammers at your heartstrings big time. cannot recommend enough

here are some lgbtq+ films i have seen recently, some i liked more, some i liked less but most of them left a lasting impression on me which i think is great. here they are: - kokomo city (usa, 2023) (if you were to watch only one of these please watch this one) - peafowl (south korea, 2022) - elephant (poland, 2022) - fireworks (italy, 2023) - without air (hungary, 2023)

being traditionally cool is really quite boring and iterative, and it’s actually very cool and sexy to geek out about something you like or share bits of knowledge on a topic you’re passionate about

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WORKER’S DAY!!!! i love having a union, i love being a union steward and getting to support my unit. when my union won its contract, i got a pay bump, better benefits, and increased protection as a worker. 🥳 unions help address racial and gender pay gaps, issues workplaces impose on families and those having kids, addressing unsafe conditions, plus things like better health insurance, wages and overtime, weingarten rights to representation, and more!!! if you don’t have a union but are thinking about forming one, check out AFL-CIO’s page (linked) or Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee. there’s always more power in a union!! ✊🥖🌹
