My husband is pretty good. Yes we have the same nickname for one another. It originated from a meme and we are not in the least ashamed. We can also share clothes. So even if we’re going to Hell, Israel Folau, at least we’ll be well dressed. #gay #marriedlife #husband #lgbt #loveislove

I know a lot of very brave LGBT activists. But to stand up for what you believe in Putin's Russia, to have death stare you in the face and meet its gaze requires bravery I can barely comprehend. Somewhere there's a rainbow that stands as a memorial to souls like Yelena Grigoryeva. The freedoms we enjoy in the West exist because of people like her. Rest in peace. #gayrights #russia #lgbt #gay #activism #courage #humanrights #hate

Had a cracking show a couple of weekends ago at the Spotted Mallard. I can’t reveal what it was for mysterious reasons but this bow tie had my tickled pink #fashion #bowtie

I have found my spirit animal. #swimming #dog #crimes #russianliterature #myday #stoptakingpicturesandtakemebacktodrylandyoustupidhuman I do not know who made this but I bow before them.

Loving filling in on 3RRR’s Uncommon Sense. Song requests below*

I have a broad discomfort with Folau being removed from Go Fund Me. I don’t like censorship and I prefer debate. But let’s be honest about this. Folau intentionally brought this on. This didn’t come out of nowhere. He got warned a year ago and he made a decision to pick a fight on a pretty thin question of principle. It’s easy to focus on Rugby Australia or Qantas or Go Fund Me or the other organizations and accuse them of censorship. But at its core the reason they acted in this way was that a lot of people contacted them, including a lot of young people and the parents of young LGBTIQ+ people who are really tired of watching gay people get beaten around like a bigot’s piñata by “religious” folk who only seem to talk about the LGBTIQ+ community. 50% of trans kids attempt suicide. One quarter of pre-teen suicides are LGBT kids. Folau gets the attention of a wannabe martyr. Personally, I’m saving my thoughts for the families of those dead kids.

Oh SHUT UP. This is totally ignorant of the challenges disabled people face. Stella Young (bless her heart) constantly had to navigate built environments designed for able bodied people. She couldn’t go into older houses, because of stairs for e.g. When she bought an apartment in South Yarra and I asked her what stood out she said “Well I can fucking get into it for one”. At Political Asylum - a gig we used to run in Melbourne, we had to build a custom ramp to get her wheelchair onto the stage. Most ramps onto pavement wouldn’t fit her chair so she’d have to drive along the road weaving between cars to find a spot she could get her chair up. I don’t know exactly how Ali Frances moves through the world but it wouldn’t surprise me is plenty of houses in Brisbane weren’t easy to get into. And if it’s your home it can’t just be POSSIBLE to get into it needs to be convenient to get into. #AusVotes19 #auspol #auspolitics #ausvotes #election

This is mostly what Banjo does. And that’s really very fine. #greyhound #dog #pet #cute

At Pam Rana’s #MICF show on Smith Street and ohhhh golly it is good. Strongly recommend 10/10.
