I smoked a joint with Peaches many moons ago. She was fun. I was at her show very early to make sure we saw Cobra Killer. She just came up sat with my friend and I and asked if we had any weed. I had a couple of joints. It was the kind of venue where I was known and no one cared about weed and smoking wasn't banned then anyway. Also, they were super artist friendly. Was at the zoo in Brisbane. She didn't say much but her mate had a very poindexter outfit on and was really nice and chatty. She mainly just sat there woman spreading in her little hot pants. I love her. She was thankful and courteous in an I'm a "rock star ok" kind of way. She was definitely still very underground then though.
She performed solo and with Mignon, just them, her mc505 beatmachine and some long dildos, shake your dicks, shake your tits. No one including me knew who she was but a bunch of my mates had tickets, she blew us completely away.
Thanks for reminding of such a great memory. The whole show was incredible, I think
Cornelious was headlining but I'm not sure. That may have been another year. The only big day out sideshows allowed were engineered by Regurgitator's manager Paul Curtis. He's a great person. Those shows were usually better than the actual big day out and were always artists he'd hand picked to tour down the east coast with the big day out. They were kind of shows rarely staged in Brisbane at the time and were a must see for a load of us.
I honestly don't fit in all that well in the queer or trans communities either. But at least I know I'll be safe as long as it's not in a bar full of gay men. Being neurodiverse trans and lesbian is a bit niche. Gotta pick the right places. I have found some. Bars are off limits anyway for the time being. Going to look into the local straight edge scene if I can.
Thanks for your kind words. I know there's plenty of somewhat "normal" people who don't give a shit about heritage or cultural differences. I can count on one hand the people who gushed with offers of support when I came out as trans who have kept in touch. Most of my friends just treat me exactly as they always did though which is much better than pretending to want to know every facet of transition.
Edit: I should that add that I accept things aren't perfect and everyone faces the same problems regardless of whether they were born with things they can be marginalised for or not.
Thanks oh starchy one. Yes, legitimately the best conditions I've ever worked under. I'm keeping things decidedly queer at the moment. The cis het world was never a place I felt at home in. blah blah footy blah blah blah. Nothing wrong with being into sports of course.
Loving early starts and finishes and already clocking up nearly 6.5ks of walking just tramming into the cbd for work and back and working. Was hard work today and as a few in the company have said, there's no need to go to a gym as work is a workout. Training and money is pretty sweet and all my co-workers are great, my colleague today I'd never worked with and asked me my pronouns which is always a good sign.
On the way home I scored a proper oodie of the baby unicorn print variety and black stovepipe dungarees from the salvos. The oodie is warm, oversized soft and is baby blue, powder pink and white so you know, basically a gay / trans pride oodie as far as I'm concerned. It's nice to find clothes I know I'm going to basically live in for reasonable prices. Still undecided about whether salvos are cool or not, but their staff are at least.
Absolutely gorgeous day out there too, so I'll smash my ks up to 11 with a nice stroll around this lovely neck of the south of the rivers woods. Also already been able to share some totally un-asked for kindness through my volunteer work as well, so today's about as wholesome as I can hope for.
Thx for reading and love to you all my little dt family.
