The Other Shepherds, a deleted scene from Life of Brian, and one that I think is a pity they couldn’t fit it in. Some classic lines here.
The Alan Rickman petrol station tango [Texas - In Demand]
Alan Rickman reads Shakespeare’s Sonnet 130
My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more red than her lips’ red; If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. I have seen roses damask’d, red and white, But no such roses see I in her cheeks; And in some perfumes is there more delight Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks. I love to hear her speak, yet well I know That music hath a far more pleasing sound; I grant I never saw a goddess go; My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground: And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare As any she belied with false compare.

Mr. Darcy? I could more easily forgive his vanity had he not wounded mine. But no matter. I doubt we shall ever speak again.

Oh my. This is so beautiful. It just makes me so happy. From Facebook.
Yuuup. Like, virtually all the time.
GOOD BYE 2020, WE WILL NOT MISS YOU
I have to end the year by thanking all of you who like and reboot and respond to my obsessions. You truly saved my sanity this year. And thank you all for helping me to further understand the amazing diversity that exists in our world. My students, friends and colleagues will all benefit from what I’ve learned about neurodoversity and sexuality. This is such a brave and welcoming community, and I wish you all a very happy, and healthy New Year.
For purely selfish reasons, here’s some pics of the boys that made my year sparkle:
I rediscovered Jack! I listened to him constantly in college and spent this summer re-obsessing.
ELP. I’ve loved them for more years than I’d care to admit to. This is the year they really became part of my DNA.
They all look so happy here. Their silly goofyness makes my heart happy.
Carl. He is utterly beautiful here. My lord.
This is a favorite picture for so many reasons. They both look beautiful. Greg is just so heartbreakingly sweet, and he’s got a huge pupper in his lap.
Keith. In white. Smoldering. No other explanation needed.
Finally, my heart. The loss is still a fresh open wound.

I’m sorry if I missed anyone! Happy New Year! 🎉
Angels must be jealous.
I’m sorry. Whaaattt???
If this doesn’t make you happy...
I feel like I don’t have the right to be emotional about this anniversary. Even though I’ve always been a fan, I didn’t have such a visceral attachment before this summer. And anyway, this isn’t about me. It’s about Greg’s family. 💜
When someone asks me what I do for a living
Greg: Thank you very much indeed, ta! Thank you. Thank you very much indeed, ta. We’d like to, uh, we’d like to play you the first side of our album, which is out now, which I hope you’ve all bought, ‘cos it makes us all a little bit richer, and uh, it’s the story about an armadillo…and a tank…alright…you listening or not?!
crowd: <cheers> Yeah!
Greg: That’s good. <giggles> Ok! It’s the story about an armadillo and a tank and he’s a mean bastard! Is Keith alright? We’ve got a little trouble here tuning the Moog, so you’ll just have to… It’s cool? Ok. We’re going to play for you, and only for you, our latest rendition, it’s called Tarkus. Thank you.
From now on I’ll refer to him as big Greggie in casual situations and The Great Gregorio in formal occasions okay
