When you talk about Philippino history and then Roman history, as a Venezuelan it's been making me think about our history and like, I've always thought there's a lot of similarity there but now it's like...its so similar. Your house is haunted too! I always think about how we won wars against the colonizers but their ghosts are still there, and they still sit at the dinner table with us every night. Your work is so cool, I feel like I can extend that train of thought further through time. I've never been interested in Rome but now I kinda am!
Venezuela 🤝the Philippines: being haunted houses (colonized by Spain)
also that is so SO real, the ghosts really are with us!! THEY ARE AT!!! OUR DINNER TABLES!!!!! ngl, once you start noticing it, it's impossible to NOT notice how they've crawled into the spaces and just. stayed.
ancient Rome is so weird for it too, because if you asked me about it, I wouldn't immediately put ancient Rome down for haunting the Philippines, except for the fact that like Catholicism, it's fucking everywhere. it's gotten in the cracks and spaces between the walls. On the stage of theater, Nadres' Hanggang dito na lamang at maraming salamat: the main character is named after Julius Caesar
Tumblr media
Closet Queeries, J. Niel C. Garcia
and so many people are named after figures from ancient Rome (I know enough Mark Anthonys I've run out of differentiating nicknames for everyone) that it rivals Catholic saints for naming conventions. neo classical architecture had it's moment in the sun in Manila, our ilustrados brought some of it back when they returned from Spain to call for reform, and then independence, and I am struggling to hold back a plague-infection comparison about that. like, something else crept in with Spain, and like Spain's ghosts, it Did Not Leave.
but on the other hand! there's a long, centuries long, tradition of using the events of the Fall of the Republic to discourse, discuss, to vent or call for action, current events. it provides a interlocutor when something hurts too much to say directly, it provides a stage to explore a tragedy that echoes in our own histories, it gives a script to voice an ideal that a government might otherwise put down. how many centuries have we used Brutus (and Cassius) to rail against Tyranny, and how many centuries with equal enthusiasm have people used Julius Caesar as a martyr to justify the rights of Kings and Empires? these things are equally as important (in a different way) from the ancient events that actually transpired. (this specific topic, of Brutus & the Assassination of Caesar and it's literary revivals in history, are the focus of The Brutus Revival, Manfredi Piccolomini)
and the cores of these things conflict with each other, but in that friction, it's like there's an invitation to sit down and think for a minute. to look back at history and feel it's immediacy in the present.
ANYWAY I got carried away, but I am glad!! that my stuff could make Rome interesting!!! I hope that you find new doors of thoughts to explore!!!!!!!

Bun, what I'm going through is like this.:
Nostradamus realities. Ancient druid mystic. Native American plight. History. Survived through awful situations. Immortality realities. Walking around like this now. Identities of which I know but hold private (you know.). Gender transitions. Spectrum of skin tones and identities. Not past life regressions, maybe modern memory recall catch-up. A modern aftermath successful task pending completion. Being harassed by terrorists. PTSD/trauma. Whoosh mind outflow and real life juxtaposition with modern reality in compartmentalized realities. Something that I'm exploring and working with. Real-Life. Settling and acceptance. Continuing on. A kingdom. A modern reality.
This is why I'm wondering and trying to figure all this shit out.
Are you my wife just sitting there watching the world below you working with it all yourself, organizing what we're doing / what we're going to do?
God realities. My Goddess.
My Goddess. (you.) Twin Flame realities. (Bonky Bonk.) Twin Ray realities. (Robert Robot.) Twin Soul Realities. (Kathi.) Soul Children. (Emily, Jon, Megan, Queerie.) Soul Mother. (Udderpea). Soul Father. Soul Biological Father. Merlin Dad Pea. (Christine.) etc.
A story. A history. Experiences. A reality. A segmented modern reality. A parallel reality. Real-Life.
Something like this.
All said and done, it's you and only you. Always.
I experience that I'm sitting around channelling and telepathizing with you all day along with our people.
I'm reading the message boards and reading it as such trying to figure my life out and what's happening. What I'm going to do. What we're going to do if anything at all.
Where are we?

Episode 41: Send in the Clowns: Anita Bryant, the Briggs Initiative, and the Rise of the Anti-Gay Right
Buckle up, folks – this episode contains your hosts doing a lot of swears and yelling at the general AAAAAAAAAHHHHH of the world right now. For this episode, Leigh is joined once again by guest host Aubree Calvin, for a crossover episode with Southern Queeries talking about the rise of the anti-gay Christian right movement and homophobic legislation that swept the United States in the 1970s with Anita Bryant, Save Our Children, and the Briggs Initiative, whose proponents used “parental rights” language to justify their homophobia, in an eerily similar manner as we are seeing today with anti-LGBTQ and specifically anti-trans legislation and arguments. Listen to this episode to hear the history behind all this, as well as some bits of levity we made sure to put in (listen to Anita Bryant get hit with a pie and learn about the glorious protest tactic of glitterbombing), and hear how the LGBTQ community of yesteryear rose up to fight these counter-movements, and what we can learn from them in today’s fight. 
Then, when you’re finished with this episode, head on over to Southern Queeries for the second part of our conversation, talking in depth about the current rash of anti-LGBTQ legislation in the country, our reactions and feelings, and how it’s the same conversation and language as back in 1977 and 1978. 
Outline 0:00 – Introduction and Announcements Content Warning: References to historical lies tying queer people to child molestation and child pornography are contained in this episode in the following time-codes: 14:23 - 16:59; 59:33 - 59:48; 1:10:54 - 1:11:06; 1:13:44 - 1:15:32 7:39 – Socio-Historic Context 17:16 – Dade County FL, Anita Bryant & Save Our Children 32:06 – LGBTQ Response 51:03 – Word of the Week 57:35 – Spread Across the Country: John Briggs & CA’s Proposition 6 1:17:12 – Main Takeaways and Conclusions 1:24:46 – Pop-Culture Tie-In 1:28:23 – How (Anti) Gay were They? 1:31:28 – Closing and Where to Find us Online

free jewish resources online
Because so many of these lists require a high buy-in cost, I feel like I should add my own personal resources for learning about Judaism. Because on the one hand, yes, unfortunately a lot of resources cost money, and if you’re actually converting, you need to be working with a rabbi. But if you’re just wanting to educate yourself, or if you want “lighter” reading, I have some recs!
Keep in mind that Judaism varies a LOT in both belief and practice. This is not all-inclusive and opinions on EVERYthing may differ. 
Podcasts/audio (I grabbed whatever link seemed best, but use your fav streaming platform):
Bad Jew Weekly is hard to find on some streaming services right now, but it’s SUCH a good casual look at Jewish thought from a more relatable/average point of view.
Jewish History Matters - for historical context, told engagingly!
Jewcurious is a podcast (also uploaded as a series of Youtube videos) specifically for people new to Judaism. 
Hashivenu is put out by Reconstructing Judaism and shares practices that encourage resilience.
ReformJudaism’s podcasts include “Wholly Jewish” (interviews about identities and how they intersect with the individual’s Jewishness), “Stories We Tell” (fun short stories, child-appropriate), and “On the Other Hand: Ten Minutes of Torah” insights on the weekly Torah portion.
Judaism Unbound is another informative podcast. A few episodes are transcribed on their website here. 
Digital Hammurabi is a Youtube channel put together by historians studying the ancient world. They tend to cover Biblical history as well as the history of cultures of the surrounding peoples. 
Books that tend to be available at US libraries
(note - your local library may be willing to buy books at your request. Additionally, some libraries let non-residents sign up for a digital library card for free or for a small fee. These change frequently so you may need to check out the library’s websites individually! You can also specifically search for a book on Overdrive and then “Search for a digital library with this title” to find one near you. I’m only listing stuff here that I didn’t pay a dime for and which are on Overdrive; most have audiobooks available too.)
Jewish Literacy Revised Ed by Joseph Telushkin. A broad view of Judaism basics and history. (Note that IMO, some of the history seems anti-Islam in a way that I don’t usually see in other Jewish histories.) 
The Jewish Book of Why by Alfred J. Kolatch. Another one of those basic training manuals.
Choosing a Jewish Life: A Handbook for People Converting to Judaism and for Their Family and Friends by Anita Diamant.
Uncovered: How I Left Hasidic Life and Finally Came Home by Leah Lax: A moving memoir of a gay woman and her experiences with the Hasidic movement of Judaism. (May be triggering for those with negative religious/homophobic experiences.
Becoming Eve: My Journey from Ultra-Orthodox Rabbi to Transgender Woman by Abby Stein: A memoir of a transgender woman who was raised in the Hasidic movement. (May be triggering for those with negative religious/homophobic/transphobic experiences. I dealt with panic attacks from this for weeks but I still recommend it. It’s that good?)
Torah Queeries edited by Gregg Drinkwater, Joshua Lesser and David Shneer. Commentaries on Torah portions from a queer perspective.
Tevye the Dairyman and Motl the Cantor's Son by Sholem Aleichem. This also is more cultural history than religious information but dammit. It’s the source for Fiddler On The Roof and it is charming and you will cry.
Other:
Visiting a local temple is free and informative - check their website to make sure visiting is cool. Many are currently streaming services and even have their recorded services on Youtube. (Mine did not charge a fee for any conversion-related services. Based on what I see online, that’s not the norm... but it’s possible!) As an example, here’s OurJewishCommunity.org’s Youtube channel, which uploads services regularly. 
Note - many temples and synagogues filter attendants for safety reasons. If you can’t access your local temple’s streaming services, you may need to reach out to an administrator to ask. They also may be able to direct you to other local activities, like Torah study. In my experience, there is no barrier to entry saying that you can’t participate unless you’re Jewish already - it’s only about being open and engaged and respectful. Even if that’s not the case for your local temple/synagogue, it tends to be true for streaming online events--which also tend to be “pay what you can”! For example, some of Marlene Meyerson JCC Manhattan’s programs, classes, and holiday services. 
Sefaria. Sefaria. Sefaria. Did I say Sefaria? It has holy texts (English and Hebrew!) along with study texts, hosted for free, and it is HUGE. Click on anything and it will link you to commentary and other resources. Users can create “sheets” to arrange quotes by topic. Here’s a helpful list of information by topic! 
Stay informed on social media. You will see a lot of perspectives online. Reddit has a subreddit of course if you want a taste of those. Ask-jumblr here on Tumblr also shares great resources and has an FAQ page. Of course, following people who you like who are also Jewish is good and may give you a more well-rounded perspective on Jewish life (but you probably knew that!).
The Jewish Theological Seminary has tons of online resources for the curious. The link is for their Youtube.
MyJewishLearning has how-to articles and other easy-reading info.
RitualWell is great for finding prayers.
I can’t write a list like this without mentioning Chabad. It tends to be the first result for Google inquiries because it is an extensive online resource, but note that it doesn’t necessarily curate perspectives that are LGBTQ+ friendly.
ReformJudaism also has a resources tab which includes an “Answering Jewish Questions” section. They also offer Judaism 101 courses online.
T’ruah is a political rabbinic group fighting for human rights. I’ve linked their news section, but you can also sign up for their newsletter to stay updated!
OKAY. So that should be a few hundred hours’ worth of no-cost resources, audio and visual, and I’m sure there are a jillion more that I don’t know about yet. So go!! Go read and listen!!! And share more info if you’ve got it!

48: The Bored Trans Parent:
You might think being a trans parent is very different from parenting as a cis person but that’s just a bold assumption. Sure, there might be some issues to get out of the way, but after that small extra step being a trans parent is, to use Aubree Calvin’s words: Uneventful. Trips to the playground, the much needed night off, Bree has been through it all with as much love as any other Maddy would.
We totally failed to mention this on the pod, but I got in touch with Aubree through our mutual friend Leigh of History is Gay fame. I got the honour of co-hosting an episode of this wonderfully nerdy podcast, like Aubree has done before me. Check the links below to find out all about this and all her other work.

Famous tomboy Cameron Esposito!
Cameron is a butch lesbian stand-up comedian and actress. She studied theology at a Catholic university---where she realized she was a lesbian---and worked as a nanny, law clerk, and special ed teacher before being called at the last minute to perform stand-up on The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson, launching her career as a famous comedian after cracking up the house and causing Jay Leno to declare “men are on the way out---lesbians are the future!”
Cameron is also a women’s rights activist, LGBT activist, and sexual assault awareness activist. Looking her up on Youtube is a great way to kill hours with happy butch comedy! She also runs the Queery podcast, where she interviews LGBT people about identity, history, politics, love...all sorts of things.
Cameron is currently featured on Brooklyn 99 as Rosa Diaz’s butch girlfriend---and Rosa is a bi woman played by bi woman Stephanie Beatriz!

hey chell! I saw your post talking about rec-ing podcasts to friends & wondered if you could share those recs here?? I was Also wondering if you listen to behind the bastards bc it’s Good and I feel like you’d like it?
thank u for giving me an opportunity to discuss my passions! yes!
american hysteria - wry and charming lesbian discusses the moral panics from american history, paying particular attention to the prejudices and social anxieties that prompted the out-of-control theorizing, and respect to the people who were hurt the most by them. this is such a great show to listen to because it’s short (i don’t like podcasts being longer than 40 minutes and this one is typically under 30), the topics are all interesting, and it is both funny and touching. and again, wry and charming lesbian host. 
earth break - produced by the host of american hysteria, this is an audiodrama starring jenny slate as the last woman on earth after the alien apocalypse. if it wasn’t for jenny slate i don’t know if this would be a remarkable story, but her narration sits with me in a way no audiodrama writing has before. one of the cool things about it is how physically intensive the recording process was; jenny slate was literally jumping fences with a backpack on and punching the air in a field, and the energy really shows. 
ologies with alie ward - god this show is good. the episodes are long, so i haven’t listened to that big of a fraction of the archive yet but i’ve been working my way through. every week she talks in person with an academic of some kind, usually a woman, and she asks the best, most insightful questions. if you’re looking for a place to start, my favorite episode is the one on beauty standards (or kalology) with my former professor dr. renee engeln
decomposed - i have very little knowledge about music and this show makes the stories behind classical music so vivid and interesting. i fucking respect it. jade simmons has the most energy i’ve ever heard from a podcaster and it absolutely sells the entire thing. highly recommend it. 
good one - okay now we’re getting into comedy podcast territory. i love a deep dive into a joke! i love a deep dive into a Comedic Process. the guests on this show are so well-chosen and the questions are so specific and it just satisfies every nerdy impulse that i have. the first episode i ever listened to was about a joke whose origins i had always wondered about prior to listening: john early’s engagement dinner sketch. it’s excruciating. a good podcast!
sooo many white guys - i’ve been listening to this one for a few years but it’s one of the first pop culture podcasts i ever got into and one of the very few i never gave up. phoebe is fantastic and gets great stories out of her guests. the jameela jamil episode has so much surprising personal stuff in it and i already knew a lot about jameela jamil! and, obviously, phoebe only talks to interesting people (except the one white guy she interviews per season and personally i skip those). 
queery - i talk about this one occasionally on here. idk, my affection for cameron esposito has wavered over the years but i think she does a great job with this show. it is a very respectable gateway from pop culture podcasts into more personal chat shows. i admire the approach of telling all of these different types of lgbt stories, and, honestly, i’ve discovered so many cool people from it so i’m grateful just for that.
and it’s the off-season but i still really love the good place podcast because it is much more interesting than the tv show and that is a fact. i love hearing about how they film weird stunts and what jokes were cut and what the animal trainers do and all that stuff. i am going to keep watching the good place even now for the sole reason that i love listening to the podcast and i need the context from the tv show.

"The best way to describe Homoground - Queer Music Podcast is a queer-positive take on MTV. Host Lynn Casper introduces you to the queer creatives that many mainstream pubs ignore. Since its first episode in 2011, more than 1,000 #LGBTQ+ musicians and bands have been featured. Not only will you discover tunes your Spotify algorithm almost certainly wouldn’t, but many of the bands share their stories about coming out, starting a band, and the struggles of getting mainstream radio time. Audiophiles and wannabe audiophiles—this one’s for you." Thanks Well and Good for including us in this list with friends Food 4 Thot, Dyking Out, QUEERY, Making Gay History - The Podcast + more!!

What queer podcasts do you recomend??
I’m gonna preface this by saying these aren’t queer podcasts in the sense that they’re about being queer, but rather in the sense that there are queer characters in them (and for the most part their characters are not built around being queer.) Also I’m bad at summarising things so I’ve just linked to their websites, but most of these have a sci-fi theme with some comedies thrown in there too. We’ve got the entire LGBTQA+ spectrum in here, some more minorly so than others, but here we go:
Wooden OvercoatsThe Bright Sessionsars PARADOXICAThe Far MeridianLove and LuckWelcome to NightvaleAlice Isn’t DeadWithin the WiresI haven’t listened to but have heard good (and queer) things about (most are on my list):The Strange Case of Starship IrisThe Blood Crow StoriesThe Penumbra PodcastSPINESAlba SalixAnd if you would like some non-fiction ones that deal with queer themes:Getting Curious with Jonathan Van NessQUEERY with Cameron EspositoMaking Gay HistoryAlso, for hilarities sake (because it’s ridiculous), if you are over 18 and know who Chuck Tingle is, there is a podcast by Nightvale Presents where they do dramatic readings of his stories, such as “Space Raptor Butt Invasion” at Pounded in the Butt by my own Podcast. I hope this was somewhat helpful!
