The SlayStation Master Ball

"SlayStation turns one and in that time has amassed a cult following, going viral on TikTok multiple times, highlighting the importance of niche safe spaces for nerds - Velvet Caveat, SlayStation founder

My TikTok on the night currently has 963.8K views 😵

I used to run a video game themed burlesque event called Show me your moves! back in 2016 and it fills me with great joy to celebrate Velvet spearheading London's queer video game drag and cabaret scene with SlayStation. January 21st will be Velvet's biggest show to date with headlining acts Kim Chi from season 8 and Dakota Schiffer from the latest UK Drag Race! Co-hosted by the legendary Drag King Loose Willis, performances from Miss Terri Box - who is truly phenomenal. There will be interactive games, a Pokemon themed costume competition and prizes! I remember how bloody tough it was producing and promoting my own night. Not everyone got it, but for those that do... The community created around this night is really powerful and I want to see it continue to grow.

Please share and support SlayStation anyway you can 💚

🕹 The Pokemon Master Ball ✨ January 21 at Clapham Grand, London UK, SW11 1TT Tickets and more info is here: https://lnkd.in/eQCvataY

Alright, I’m procrastinating writing some academic articles, but I’ve decided to go back to revisiting my amazing adventures in London over the summer last year. 

On one of my afternoon excursions I hung out with my friend Meghan for the afternoon. Meghan and I know each other through co-authoring academic stuff but it was very welcome to have an afternoon with a friend after spending so much time alone!

 First we went to the vegan restaurant Genesis. The place was really fun and food was out of this world, alas I totally failed to take pictures of any of the things I tried. (Fortunately, I went back again later and took photos, so stay tuned.)

A then together we visited the White Chapel Gallery to see the Queer Spaces: London, 1980s-Today. A description of the exhibit:  

This display focuses on the rarely seen archives of LGBTQ+ venues and social networks collated by University College London’s Urban Laboratory, who also contribute an interactive map charting the appearance and disappearance of spaces over the last 30 years.

Among the featured case studies are the London Lesbian and Gay Centre and Black Lesbian and Gay Centre, both running in the 1980s and ‘90s; Glass Bar (1995–2008), a space in Euston for anyone identifying as a woman; and venues such as The Joiners Arms, The Black Cap and The Royal Vauxhall Tavern that are the subject of current campaigns against redevelopment. Together, they reveal the radical inventiveness and creativity of London’s LGBTQ+ communities since the 1980s.

Just before lockdown in March a crew came to the outside gallery i manage and hit up the beautiful piece by friend @therealpakal Ok this shit happens some times but the language used is particularly offensive. FAGS is a nasty word to use but the placement of this tagging was even more sinister as it was directly opposite one of Shoreditch’s surviving queer pubs, the brilliant @thegloryldn . I leave it to you to decide wether the placement of this tagging was deliberate or not !!! Luckily I was able to call on the amazing @charlieliketheriver to rescue the situation. He brilliantly painted a new piece (swipe left) whilst still leaving key elements of Pakal’s wall showing through. Street Art Works and wins. #streetart #streearteverywhere #streetartshoreditch #haggerstonriviera #queerlondon #urbanart #muralart #urbancontemporaryart #anitfascist #theglory #shoreditchstreetart #hoxtonstreetart (at Haggerston) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFgv6nil9yo/?igshid=42n3crtvst53
