To say that the AMC Vampire Lestat show has “improved” upon Anne’s book is quite possibly one of the most insulting and egregiously inflammatory—and erroneous—statements I have ever heard on Bookstagram.

Note: Avoid the meatball subs, as the meatballs themselves contain meat. This was suggested to me on a search for veggie options at Firehouse Subs. Ya, no shit. 🤨

🏳️‍🌈On my BLOG I dive into independent comic series GAY COMIX/COMICS (1980-1998). This groundbreaking anthology carved out space for LGBTQ+ voices in comics at a time when queerness was excluded from the mainstream. These stories were acts of visibility/resistance/community. www.ryanlawrenceauthor.ca

Chris Dennis served the RAF with honour. He was court-martialled for being gay in 1966 — and now, at 80, the UK Government won't give him the recognition it promised LGBT+ veterans. Sign to change that: a.allout.org/s/W78kl/

Give Gay Veteran Chris Dennis His Recognition

Chris Dennis was court-martialled for being gay in 1966, aged 21. Now 80, the UK Government's promised recognition for LGBT+ veterans has been denied to him over a technicality. Sign to change that.
