Gentle reminder today to anyone who needs it: you can celebrate today, (or any other day, if you prefer) in any way you like, or not at all. You don’t have to live up to anyone’s expectations of you. You deserve kindness.

In 1994 the Pet Shop Boys were invited to perform 'Go West' at the Brit Awards. They agreed and brought with them 3 separate choirs of miners. Some of those miners had marched with the gay and lesbian members of LGSM in the 1980s. It is one of the great, near-lost music moments vimeo.com/293437684
