HERE WE GO AGAIN x ITS A SIN While honouring his uncle's dying wish to reunite six iconic drag queen activists, a young gay man learns dark secrets about his adoptive mother. When she demands he stops his search, he must choose—his uncle’s legacy or the woman who raised him. #YouDeservepIt #A #Q

A 9 square moodboard. In the four corners are images of drag queens. Top middle is an image of Soho, London at night. Bottom middle is a picture of a piece of colourful modern art. Middle left is a road map with a magnifying glass and set of car keys resting on top. Middle right is an image of a young man with medium length hair walking through a city at night. In the centre is a pile of newspaper cuttings with the wordd 'are the dragnificent seven back?" written over the top in a fake headline style.
If you use a screenreader or rely on alt text, I always aim to make picture posts as inclusive as possible. If I can improve in any way to make my posts more accessible to you, please do reach out and I will take your feedback on board for future posts.

Word of the day is ‘forswunk’ (13th century): exhausted by work. I like to add ‘foreswunk’, exhausted before you even begin.
