I'm not here for politics but for movies, art & humor. If those are the focus of your acct I'll probably follow. I'll likely also post about the mindf*ck of getting older.
Saw it in '87 when first released when also read the book in a gay literature class at San Francisco State University. Don't remember any of it.

Sad, though, that they're now gone. I had to Google Taiyaki. Oh my, I would definitely have visited there regularly too!

Thank you for the details in the alt text. I would have definitely gone to the arcade. As a boy I loved pinball games (I don't know if they had them in this arcade) and when video games came in I was uninterested. But I love all those era toys. And the cake shop too. I would have visited regularly.

This was must-see TV in San Francisco in the '80s. Most fun was watching it at a bar with all the screaming queens. 🤣🤣❤️❤️

I looooooved this movie when first released into the cine. Lily Taylor and Vincent D'Onofrio are fabulous. And now that you mentioned her name, I recall that Judith Malina was absolutely brilliant. (Stole every scene?)

This was so fun. All we neighborhood kids would take it up to the end of the street and ride it down the sidewalk to about my house ten houses down. Not a steep hill, barely sufficient grade for gravity to build any momentum. A "Flexy."

*Envy* I desperately want to abandon overheated-summer California. One idea is Maine, because I'd also love to visit & explore Atlantic Canada & QC.
