Fabulous gig last night by the one and only. Two hours and a half of sheer joy and magic. And that energy that emerges from sharing the same love across so many generations and backgrounds. A powerful reminder that we can do so much better. Whatever words I say... Thank you, @thecure.com

Gorgeous day at the seaside 🏖️ Once a week, every week, I take 24 hours off. No deadlines, no meetings, no obligations. It's called self-care. It's also a form of resistance against neoliberal pressures. Coz love will save the day (including dog love, self-love and the love of your life 😍)

Thousands gathered for Lisbon #PRIDE at a time in which Portugal has dropped to position 12th on @ilgaeurope.bsky.social Rainbow Map and is facing backlash targeting progressive laws and trans youth.

Happy and fierce #PRIDE Lisbon! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈✊🏽
