No, my new year's resolution wasn't to post less.
I'm not cooking very interesting stuff lately and my digital camera doesn't work properly. So if the things I cook happen to be more or less interesting and I'm taking a picture it's most of the time a disappointment to look at the photos on the screen. I hope both things will change in the next time. I even neglected analogue photography recently and I'm planning to change this, too. Not as a new year's resolution. But for me, as I realized that I miss taking and developing pictures and that I even don't know exactly, why I didnt' take so much photos the last year.
Beyond those things I'm preparing a small fest together with Eve Massacre:
the WORSE THAN QUEER fest.
It's a fest with films, three bands, vegan food, diy thingies like a booth where you can print slogans on shirts and tote bags, a sewing station where you can sew patches onto your shirts or change them like you want. There will be a bake sale, too. Cakes and muffins, yay!
We have a photo exhibition and after the bands there will be DJing for a little while with Micha, Eve and me. So dancedancedance!

It will take place in about two weeks on Saturday, 21 January at Zentralcafé / K4.
No, this is not a Lady Fest.
Yes, this is a queer-feminist event and there are an awful lot of women involved. Just like that. Like it always should be, silly.
Unfortunately some people took the title wrong and thought we're super critical about the term queer and its usage.
Actually the term "worse than queer" is taken from the Bikini Kill song Suck My Left One
...Sister, sister where did we go wrong?
Tell me what the fuck we're doing here
Why are all the boys acting strange?
We've got to show them we're worse than queer....
Tell me what the fuck we're doing here

We've got to show them we're worse than queer....
and for me it always was an empowering phrase. A defiant answer to a certain kind of bashing ("you're so strange, you're queer, you're not behaving like a proper girl, look at your clothes, don't dye your hair green it could be so beautiful" etc...).
It's a little fuck you. You call me queer? I'll show you I'm even worse!
And it's an empowering phrase for all who don't dare to answer back yet.
Dare ya to do what you want. Dare ya to be who you will.
I'm totally excited and hope you will come, too. It won't be the same without you.
Now go and organize your own fest!
