"Cheese" theme night tonight at QUEERAOKE🌈 was like super cheesy. Cheese-o-phone! Next week's theme on Mon 29 June 6-9pm is "Made in Canada" so elbows up! As usual at the London Brewing Co-oP beer factory 521 Burbrook Place, London.

This excellent Brandon Sun piece nails it: when politicians redraw lines to choose their voters, your ballot loses power. Single-member ridings leave democracy vulnerable. Proportional representation ensures every vote counts exactly as intended. www.brandonsun.com/opinion/2026...

Next QUEERAOKE🌈 theme is "Cheese" so bring out your cheesiest. Naive kitsch and other excruciating bad taste is encouraged. Mon 22 June from 6 to 9pm as usual at the London Brewing Co-oP beer factory 521 Burbrook Pl. Cheese will be served. This & other queer London events at queeraoke.ca/calendar

From local markets to Pride festivals, Canadians are coming together to demand a upgraded democracy. Moving away from first-past-the-post means moving toward a system where 100% of voters have a real voice in government. Let's make every vote count.

NEXT QUEERAOKE🌈 theme is MUSICALS! Mon 15 June 6pm-9pm at the London Brewing Co-oP.

WOODFIELD GARDEN TOUR! Sat 13 June 2026 10am (intake ends at 11am) $5 Starting at 422 Princess Ave. Rain or shine. Get gardening tips, garden ideas & meet your neighbours! Light refreshments, baked goods & a prize basket for one lucky winner at the final garden. historicwoodfield.ca/garden-tour

After the Pride Picnic I swung past the London Brewing Co-oP for the "Pink for Pride" Pride London @pridelondon.ca beer launch. It's good pinkish beer! So I bought 12 to bring to a porch party in Wortley Village. Ali was there and got this photo of himself, me & Derek the outrageous bartender.

People. Everybody. HEY YOU GUYS! Meet the amazing author Cintra Wilson @cintra.bsky.social

Thisaft I'm going to hear the Aeolian Pride Chorus at the Aeolian Hall 795 Dundas St London at 15:00h doors open at 14:30h $20 aeolianhall.ca/events/aeoli...

Last night I enjoyed a production of The Drowsy Chaperone at the Ingersol Theatre of Performing Arts. @queeraoke.ca regulars Roderick Spence, David Cuellar, Magdalen Timperley & James Callaghan were among the terrific 23 strong cast! The ruccus romp of a musical satire had us in stitches.

In preparation for our new heat pump I stuccoed the service alcove. Best not have any flamable siding near a compressor! I also plan to house the compressor in a cage to avoid tresspessers from tampering with it. My stucco job is amateur but practical. I'm spraying it to keep it wet as it cures

The next municipal election will be on Mon 26 October 2026, from 10am-8pm, and with advance voting dates as early as 1 October. Be sure you're on the voters list. london.ca/government/c...

We are particularly proud of our clematis garden project which is finally getting more established. The goal is to fill in the top 4 feet with the flowering vine. Certainly a glow-up for the aluminum siding in that corner! ❤️ gardening tips & pretty plants? Follow Dave Allan @boddave.bsky.social

First-past-the-post traps us in an artificial duopoly, locking in the same politicians and rigid ideas. Proportional representation would break this hold, allowing fresh ideas and new voices to emerge that can challenge the status quo.

14 June is Soap Box Derby day in Soho, London. soholondon.ca/events/welco... Anyone else interested in making a "car" for this and risking our lives for fun? I don't know bolt a couple of bicycles to a wheelbarrow, festoon it with flowers fill & queens and own the boulevard? What could go wrong?

Welcome Pride Radio Canada @prideradiocanada.bsky.social to Bluesky!

We just got home from the $5 Tuesday screening of Devil Wears Prada II. I wore my Willma Flintstone original pearls, gift from KellyO. Kept those eyebrows though, didn't I? That's all.
