Def worth checking out- @mattbaume.bsky.social
Matt reviews movies/TV about queer characters and plots - and has a particular moving episode discussing the movie "Longtime Companion."
He's witty, fun, interesting- and (dare I say...) educational!
Well done Matt!

This is what online outreach looks like:
This conversation started cuz my Scruff app profile included "HMU if questions about sexual health"
#HIVstigmafree #sexualhealth
Instead of "risk reduction" healthcare- try "pleasure based" healthcare.
Not "how many sexual partners have you had" but "what kind of sex life would you like to have?" It's not just good science- but more fun/rewarding for you and your patient #sexpositive #hivstigmafree
