I once worked at a very fun LGBTQ+ bar. The owner was a clean freak. He used Fabuloso to clean EVERYTHING!!! One day a new drag queen walked into the dressing room. She announced yuck this room smells like jail!  LOL it was the Fabuloso. The next time she was there we sprayed the dressing room with extra Fabuloso so she would feel at home. LMAO

Tampa International Gay & Lesbian Film Festival  (TIGLFF)

Sunday, August 18…2 screenings @ 3pm and 6pm Green Light Cinema

Kayden chose Moonlight with intention to highlight and center achievements by the black queer community. Moonlight was released as the first LGBTQ-themed mass-marketed feature film with an all-black cast and was, at the time of its release, the second-lowest-grossing film domestically (behind The Hurt Locker) to win the Oscar for Best Picture in 2017.

Freaks (1932)

First came Dracula then Frankenstein by Tod Browing. Then Tod made Freaks. Soon it was banned in USA and Europe. The cast came from an actual side show and were too real. It stayed banded until the 1960’s and today it is still banned in parts of America.  You may view it today on Amazon Prime and YouTube. Watch it if you dare……
