Looking for great movies to watch during lockdown? Well, don't take my advice, take Pedro Almodovar's in his moving Quarantine diaries where he talks sci fi, isolation and grief. As well as...Shirley Bassey. indiewire.com/2020/04/pedro-…
2./ In this entry he riffs on meeting Sean Connery (gulp), celebrates actress Lucia Bosé and explores the power of the force of nature that was Chavela Vargas. Here he is speaking about her in 2017.
3./ And if that's whetted your appetite then try the second diary entry which has an even more wonderful selection of movies, more thoughtful reflections on COVID-19 and the most enjoyable take down of Madonna since well...ever. indiewire.com/2020/04/pedro-…

1. Climate Change Hyperbole.
How should we respond to global warming? In my latest article I examine how last year's flood in Valencia was misrepresented and misused to argue we should decarbonise our economy more urgently than we are already doing.👉 Image
Image
2./ The climate change lobby ignored the fact Valencia had flooded 75 times before and the geology of the region could almost be designed to produce flash floods. Flooding in Valencia got so bad in 1957 the city decided to reroute the river that used to run through the centre. Image
3./ Coverage of the flood ignored all this and the fact rivers flowing into Valencia emerge 5500ft up a mountain range. This steep gradient means when extreme rainfall occurs water rushes to the city in a torrent. Nor can it escape because of almost vertical ravine river banks. Image

1./ 🧵The Lies of Sarah McBride: The Sequel.
This leading trans activist claims the trans lobby now faces hostility cos it failed to take the time to convince the public. Yet it was McBride himself who ruthlessly championed the most extreme positions. 👉
nytimes.com/2025/06/17/opi…
2./ After @HRC failed to stop a law in North Carolina protecting women's spaces McBride led its revenge campaign to ensure its Republican Governor was not re-elected. "It would send a really important message: if you come for us we're going to come for you", warned McBride.
3./ Invading women's restrooms was such a complusion for McBride that in a 2018 Google seminar he admitted HRC killed a non-discrimination bill in Philadelphia protecting gay and trans people from employment discrimination just because it had an exemption for women's restrooms.

1./ Iran's Tran$ Plan. If you want to understand what drives trans ideology look at what's happening in Iran where a new national plan aims to increase revenue from medical tourism six fold; including from the country's booming gender clinics. Why does this matter?
1 of/11.👉Image
2./ In the West, trans activists and gender clinicians often try to disguise their homophobia. In Iran where homosexuality is punishable by death and trans ideology is officially sanctioned there's no such need. Gender clinics effectively offer to save gays. By mutilating them. Image
3./ My article reveals this gruesome money-machine is being boosted as Iran aims to make $6Bn a year from medical tourism. A key role will be played by its competing private gender clinics which are among the busiest in the world. Only Thailand does more 'sex change surgery'. Image

1./ Hezbollah Hypocrisy. It's a scandal a Jewish man was arrested for joking about the death of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. We should ALL applaud the elimination of this disgusting misogynist and anti-semite. And if you're gay you should especially thank @IDF. Here's why👉
2./ Two years ago Nasrallah called for violence against gays "with no limits". He hated gays so much he urged followers to use slurs rather than the word 'homosexual'. He and Hezbollah's inspiration had long been the rancid bigotry of Ayatollah Khomeini.👇
3./ Hezbollah posters in Beirut often cite the incoherent "thoughts" of this thankfully well dead fruitcake. A major feature of Khomeini's theology was his violent hatred of gays. One of the first laws he passed after he returned to Iran in 1979 was the death sentence for gays.Image

1./ 🧵The BBC's Transman Shame. In 2004 Sky's reality show There's Something About Miriam encouraged straight men to seduce a trans identified male. 21 years later the BBC has learned nothing as it encourages gay men to seduce a trans identified female. Will it end the same way?👉Image
2./ Sky was forced to apologise to the men it duped. It also had to pay them £500K for trying to engineer them into having sex with Miriam Rivera a troubled man who believed he was female. The same exploitative arrogance is in evidence today at @bbcthree and @twofourtweets. Image
3./@bbcthree may have told gay competitors about the trans status of 'Lars' a deluded woman who had her breasts sawn off and took testosterone in a desperate attempt to escape her female reality. But its alleged "honesty" is insufficient because this ignores how reality TV works. Image

1./ 🧵What does 'Queer' mean? In its new show the Tate claims Leigh Bowery is a queer icon. In my latest article I argue the designer's life and work suggest his kind of pathological narcissism defines Queer. I first met Bowery when I was filmed in a sex scene in his flat. Really.Image
2./ It was 1984 and I was having a fling with dancer Michael Clark who was being celebrated in a Channel 4 film following his life. He asked me to play a bit of rough trade. Typecast again. We would be filmed in Bowery's flat where he lived with his boyfriend Trojan.Image
3./ We are told now Bowery's provocative behaviour and wild designs represent an explosion of 'queer' creativity. Yet it's interesting, to say the least, the Tate ignores his casual racism. He called one of his favourite clubbing costumes 'Queer Pakis in Space'. How creative.Image
