Becky and the Can (1992)

[transbookoftheday]

The Other Boy by M.G. Hennessey

A beautifully heartfelt story about one boy’s journey toward acceptance. A book that Jill Soloway, the award-winning creator of Transparent, called “a terrific read for all ages” and Ami Polonsky, author of Gracefully Grayson, called “an emotionally complex and achingly real read.”

Twelve-year-old Shane Woods is just a regular boy. He loves pitching for his baseball team, working on his graphic novel, and hanging out with his best friend, Josh.

But Shane is keeping something private, something that might make a difference to his friends and teammates, even Josh. And when a classmate threatens to reveal his secret, Shane’s whole world comes crashing down.

It will take a lot of courage for Shane to ignore the hate and show the world that he’s still the same boy he was before. And in the end, those who stand beside him may surprise everyone, including Shane.

Femininity in and of itself - and the feminine - can be not only privileged, but honored or worshipped.

Another accidental finding out someone has changed something about themselves.

Jill Soloway now goes by Joey Soloway as part of their transition to being non binary. I have also changed their photo along with name details on their post.

Ser ut som om det börjar röra på sig igen i Red Sonja-projektet, ser fram emot att se vad vad den här nya “ambitiösa versionen” av Red Sonja innebär.

»Soloway is said to be coming in with a "bold new take," and it speaks volumes that the production company behind the movie, Millennium Films, has gone 180 degrees away from its previous choice and hired an acclaimed nonbinary creator to shepherd the powerful woman warrior to the screen. Studios are reportedly already interested in partnering with Millennium on the picture.« – [Källa]

Föga förvånande handlade det om pengar dessutom att Singer slutligen fick sparken (och inte hans synbarligen taffliga arbetsmoral/-etik):

»After halting production a short time later, reports circulated in March that Singer had been removed from the film, suggesting it was because the studio was unable to secure a domestic distributor so long as Singer was involved.« – [Källa]

Nåväl. Filmen Red Sonja är en 80-tals klassiker som jag återkommer till med jämna mellanrum. Så jag fortsätter följa det här projektet med intresse.

Being pretty... I'm just confused about it. I mean, I love getting my nails done, but I also like dressing like a boy. I think I feel most myself when I'm mixing femininity and masculinity. Like, fifty-fifty.

Watching Jill Soloway scout locations for her Red Sonja remake on fucking LESBOS (on her insta stories) fills me with so much goddamn joy!
