Screencap of a tweet from Harry Tafoya | @gaykatemoss showing a painting by John Koch – Polishing the Chandelier. Text reads: 'I love John Koch because he was “straight” and married to Dora, which makes the blatant horniness of his work so much funnier. Like the idea of titling this piece “Polishing the Chandelier” (1958) is so ijbol, you know exactly what he’s polishing in his head'

All of Us Strangers | Andrew Haigh | 2023

My favourite film from last year. Haunting, beautiful and devastating, with all the pop and cultural references for a teen growing up in the 80s making it feel all the more profound. Time for a rewatch for #PrideMonth

The video! ♡♡

Screencap of a tweet showing a photograph of donkeys wearing hats and silk leggings, paraded with their owners on a red carpet alongside the rubble of Gaza. Text reads: 'A festival in Gaza today honouring donkeys for their service to the people of Gaza in public transportation over the past 21 months, amid the absence of cars due to the lack of fuel. It's not a joke. It's real'

So much love for this ♡

Save the chicken-wire Mr Darcy! The push to preserve the fantastical works of ‘Wigan’s Gaudi’ Kevin Duffy was an eccentric who sculpted everything from a mini pub to a lion’s den to a Tudor village. But after his death, the future of this outsider artist’s work is in doubt
