Oh Kew, not you too.......

But how do the plants identify? Has anybody asked them?

They've been at the mushrooms again!

"Hi there, our aim with this festival is to not only celebrate the diversity in the natural world, but also the association between plants and flowers with queer identities - we want to amplify queer voices through art, allowing for new conversations!"

Flowers with queer identities FFS.

How does any plant, queer or otherwise, get to have an identity?

Loved this article in the Critic

It puts its finger on something that's bothered me but I couldn't articulate. That nature is being appropriated to validate an ideology, not that nature would care I suppose. This ideology has form for this type of thing though.
