This seems to be the moment I’ve been saving Hacks for.

Gilbert Baker's original 8-color pride flag (1978) / theatrical release poster for Star Trek: the Motion Picture (1979) by Bob Peak

William Gibson called! He wants his dystopian future back! 😲😅

I am sad I did not know the teenage death camp movie was premiering in London tonight! I wish I could have gone! I have a friend going who I’ve told about GA stuff in the past. Who went. Didn’t even let me know it was happening. I guess that’s just another friend I’ve lost cause of the AuDHD.

We are now as far from Labyrinth as Labyrinth was from 1946!!! Pretty sure I can still remember all the lines!

Poor Euripides isn’t feeling well. He’s been hardly around for months sleeping upstairs. But he knows when he’s not well he can still come cuddle to feel better. Got him an appointment booked for Tuesday. He’s been on a tiny steroid dose and I think it’s been making him a little anti social.

Woohoo! Paper submitted and the editor declared it was lovely! I’m getting published for the first time ever!!! That Paris conference last year was quite life changing!

JFC Bill has shingles again. He’s had it 6 or 7 times in recent years. He asked the doctor if he could get a shingles vaccine. He was told he has to wait until he’s 55! Just checked we can buy privately but seriously wtf! I said he should have asked the doctor if he’d ever had shingles!

Happy Pride to queer authors who have a SciFi or Fantasy book coming out this year. You can check the comments on this post for a ton of leads.

OMG HURRAY!!

White supremacist DW fan proclaiming white lives matter cause he’s mad that a company was interviewing qualified Asian and Black candidates because they had so many white employees. Dude hiring qualified candidates is NOT the same as being killed by the state because of your skin colour!!!

Me an AuDHD person going to present at a conference in July, our assistant director could you come back from the conference early and come to our day long senior management vision away day? Me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I would need to hermit all week to have the energy for that! Not just presented at a conference!

My Saru outfit is on the way!!! I hope the cold weather lasts long enough for me to try it on!!!

Today at work someone to me, I know a lot about comics and graphic novels. You can’t call them Comics you have to call them graphic novels or people get very upset. Me:

Last night watching an episode of TOS and the fact that this is Star Trek’s 60th anniversary hit hard. Watching these lovely characters realising I am as close to them now as there were to NINETEEN HUNDRED AND SIX! Fuck time is messed up!

This seems to be saying that serverly disabled people just don't qualify as human enough for human rights... This is UTTERLY reprehensible.

I've never seen this quote before, but now it's one of my favorites too!

Must read later!! You should also read! This series is excellent!

Community and direct action all the way!

fiercely taking notes to add to my to watch list 😂 www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlgj...

It is very, very important to understand that what we’re currently seeing is the consolidation of power over institutions by those with the least interest in keeping those institutions functional, a billionaire class of bullies who’d just as soon break your toys as steal them.

Nice to see support from the BMA

This is utterly terrifying! It’s not just trans people loosing their human rights!

Apart from the footnote styling I have finished my paper! Turning a conference presentation into a written paper was incredibly difficult! Much more so than I expected. Speaking and writing are so different! But I think I’m finally there! Yay! No I need to work on my next presentation 😅

I admit I am surprised to see Lib Dem’s leading with this and not Greens! It really is not time for Greens to abandon us!

Oh Mary again tonight for the 4th time! I was supposed to see Catherine but instead was the very lovely Georgie Langdon! Who I saw in her west end debut as Louise! And she was AMAZING! Her delivery of the cunt line was my favorite of all 3 Mary’s! Definitely need to see Catherine again tho.

My Multi-cultural psychological counselling prof my last year at Evergreen. He spefically said bisexual people weren't included and only discussed gays and lesbians during what should have been the LGBT week. And the lesbian example he used was, Brandon Teena!! This was 1995 but still!!!

No one needs subsidised drinking at work!

GA giving the fans what they want!

I have probably watched this a hundred times in the past few years and god it simply never gets old. the full performance is such essential viewing too. the choice to draft Annie Lennox here because the Freddie Mercury vibes transcend gender is so important to me actually

So happy the heat wave has broken!!! Now I can get back to knitting. Though I’m on my 4th book in a week so I may stick with that for awhile.

This was a ridiculously fun quiz! german.millermanschool.com

Omg our 25 minute trip to the air conditioned coffee shop took 90 minutes! The bus was on two diversions. My brain is dying from the heat! I’m not sure how much it’ll manage writing or studying today.

Every penny donated helps us work toward a world where our organisation no longer needs to exist. It takes two minutes to set up a monthly donation, or make a one-off contribution, to help us continue the fight for trans rights today. tinyurl.com/DonateTransA... #Trans #Transgender #Nonbinary

Fuck cis straight guys who come into my mentions saying the only way to keep our human rights is befriending those out to destroy us.

This is incredibly awful and yet I’m honestly not that surprised. But seriously if a very old gay man like George Takei can get it RTD has no fucking excuse. The fact that he said this after the recent guidance…

Our new survey for neurodivergent library staff is out now! If you have a mo, we would really appreciate the feedback 😀 docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

On Sunday I picked up 3 books by Andrew Joseph White. I’m now on the 3rd. You weren’t meant to be human I read in 22 hours despite sleeping and going to work! This is the trans horror I’ve been wanting my whole life!!! I feel so seen! And it’s also got me wanting to write again! 💜💜💜

Today I had to explain to him what CERL and M25 was…

Today Don Mancini won the internet and my heart has been given another layer of protection against evil! This is the most adorable photo of Brad Dourif I have ever seen!!

Things that happen when you hire in a manager who has no experience of either special collections or archives. Not knowing what the word enquiry means and using it for productions 🤣🤣🤣 after 3 months on the job…

“Show me what comic you loved when you were 13 and that’s all I need to know about you.” Brad Meltzer. I think Brad might be onto something here!
