Hey BlueSky! Just joined and excited to connect. I’m a singer and interdisciplinary artivist creating at the intersection of love and liberation. My latest song, No Es Mi Presidente Remix, just dropped and is streaming everywhere! Watch the video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1e9...

Free advice! Your FilmFreeway project is important when you're selected. Populate all fields. Have screen shots of the film, NOT just production. Use high contrast images with any characters close to each other, no moody dark scenes. And use titles with regular case (not all caps, all lower, etc.)

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

As the total migration from Meta seems to be increasingly urgent, I've set up a new handle for personal contacts at @juantrujillo.bsky.social and, as you may have noticed, gone through the process to set this festival account to a verified custom domain @tagqsf.org . Follow one, follow both... !

🌈📚 Tag! organizer Juan Trujillo's new memoir is available with a huge launch discount until 11/30 from editorial.elinverso.com/objetos/. Objetos de [des]amor is a bilingual look at grief and the search for connection from a queer Latino author whose Mormon upbringing claimed to have all the answers.
