A famous, gay country singer who went to theatre school and performs as a masked persona...? Of course he's an addict. (Also, I love him.)

Happy Pride to this Caravaggio self-portrait that made one man so gay he had to go to the hospital
Caravaggio's Baccus painting, featuring a lush fruity spread and leaves bedecking a pasty twink who only works out his armsArticle screenshot that says:

The most extreme examples of
Stendhal syndrome share a sensation of
self-fragmentation. Magherini
describes the case of a 53-year-old
German man who was hospitalized
after repeatedly viewing Caravaggio's
Bacchus at Uffizi Gallery. The patient
felt "an attraction closer and closer to
an intimate sexual arousal of
ambiguous nature that invaded him
and made him feel good and bad."
Unmoored and distressed, he sought
medical attention. After treating the
subject's initial episode, Magherini
writes that he came to recognize his
latent homosexuality. Another case...

Funny thing about American mass media is how woke content is broadly popular, routinely pays for itself, and sometimes goes blockbuster, whereas right-wing content is a narrow niche that rarely reaches breakeven, never goes blockbuster, and usually requires immense subsidies for it to exist at all.

Per my post today Persephone Books's edition of "Two Cheers for Democracy! A Selection" by E.M. Forster is getting me through this time without ignoring the world as I comfort read.

(11/11) So, please: go throw a pot today or sing a song or write a poem. It doesn't have to be as frivolous as STARLIGHT EXPRESS, but it can be. Create the world they want to destroy. [Originally posted to IG, where it is known that I saw STARLIGHT EXPRESS twice last week! Lol.]

A. Rey Pamatmat @arey.bsky.social · 20/03/2026
(10/11) Is making art right now insufficient? Of course. We have civic and moral duties and responsibilities to pursue. But we don't have to do that in our art. We can but don't have to.

A. Rey Pamatmat @arey.bsky.social · 20/03/2026
(9/11) Does it defeat them? No. But as we've learned from Internet comment sections, sometimes the best way to fight is to refuse to fight.

A. Rey Pamatmat @arey.bsky.social · 20/03/2026
(8/11) It is the life they are trying so hard to destroy. It is the introspection that confuses them. It is the human intelligence that they cannot emulate artificially.

A. Rey Pamatmat @arey.bsky.social · 20/03/2026
(7/11) Creation simply to create, to communicate, and to express humanity — not to innovate, progress, or profit (financially or in power accumulation) — is the cure to the world these profiteers, murderers, and tech lords are manifesting.

(6/11)Any well-informed artist/critic/historian could have told you that Futurism leads to fascism. That the tech bro valuing technology and innovation over humanity ends in concentration camps.

A. Rey Pamatmat @arey.bsky.social · 20/03/2026
(5/11) I have absolutely felt like making art right now is a mistake. But, still, we should. Even if it's only because art and history are the ultimate records of human mistakes and how to avoid or overcome them.

(4/11)The essays are the collected musings of a queer artist/aesthete who is so clearly struggling with the fact that his very domestic work seems unimportant or ill-timed in a world falling to fascists and their enablers (in the WWII era).

(3/11) But indulge me as I reflect on celebrating at such a terrible moment in human history and the history of the United States. You have to. I AM FIFTY. I have been getting immense comfort reading Persephone Book's "Two Cheers for Democracy! A Selection" by E.M Forster.

(2/11)Social media is limited in expressing a life, especially as I mostly use it as a photo album, especially in times where a large portion of our lives is so harrowing and violent that we wouldn't want to keep visual memories of it.

(1/11)I AM FIFTY!!! 50! (This pic by my husband, Ry, is actually from last week, when I was still 49. But an old homo happy to be chilling with Paddington is me in a nutshell, so...)

There's no should or shouldn't; a feeling is a feeling, and you have it or you don't. Should only matters with things you actually do. You should be in relationships with people who are good. You should be good to yourself whether you're in a relationship or not. Hang in there.

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness. You could be next.

Dear Americans,
How would you feel if Canada did to you want your government did to Venezuela? What if we went in and bombed DC or Mara Largo, took your president and First Lady then ran your country until a new leader was available? Would you like it?

Nenko Gantchev should still be alive—home with his family. After 30 years contributing to Chicagoland as a small business owner and taxpayer, ICE detained him, ignored his medical needs, and he died in custody. This system is cruel, reckless, and must be held accountable.
