You knew River Phoenix??? And were in a movie with him??? I think I need more coffee to process this (in a good way). That is an INCREDIBLE icebreaker fact.
To say I knew him was a huge exaggeration, but the rest is true! I was 16 and he was about 13 and still a baby face, not cool yet. The little girl from poltergeist was also in the film. And in one scene you can see my baby sister in the background picking her nose 😂

It’s funny, most people can be around someone and then gradually begin to love them and never know exactly when it happened; but Ruth knew the very second it happened to her. When Idgie had grinned at her and tried to hand her that jar of honey, all these feelings that she had been trying to hold back came flooding through her, and it was at that second in time that she knew she loved Idgie with all her heart. That's why she had been crying, that day. She had never felt that way before and she knew she probably would never that way again.

Lesbian Avengers eating fire, 1990s
The Lesbian Avengers adopted fire-eating in response to the 1992 fire-bombing of the apartment of Hattie Mae Cohens and Brian Mocks. This tragic murder prompted Avengers at a West Village encampment to march, carrying torches and burning pictures of prominent anti-LGBTQ figures in protest against LGBTQ violence. Choreographer Jennifer Monson introduced the action of eating the fire, marking it as a symbol of reclamation for the Lesbian Avengers. The act itself is meant to both draw attention but also serve as symbolism for lesbian visibility—"the fire will not consume us. We take it and make it our own."

Please note, you feminists, that Miss Wieck hasn’t gone “mannish,” notwithstanding Marlene’s example.
