Eid mubarak to Palestinians and to all those who love and support us.

I'm looking for some older LGBT+ people (50+) to feature in a video series for Just Like Us - primarily trans, lesbian, gay & bi.

I'd really like to show there's no 1 way to be LGBT, so keen for ppl of colour, faith &/or disabled to be part of it

It’s true our food smells - but that’s because it’s the best food in the world hands down!

unlearning shame has been a long process, but my love for food was a big one.
and it was really hard…cos Indian food is everywhere!
i wasn’t as valuable as an order of curry, i guess. the stains of turmeric looked different on them, than on me.
