I'm going back to Poland. Just discovered why I cannot contact a former domme I served in Poland who died shortly after serving a short prison sentence for.. practising BDSM in Warsaw. Can hatred be expressed through anger? I still feel it, I feel it for the Pope, for the Catholic Church in Poland, not just because of what happened to me three years ago but also because of what I have seen happen among my former social circle in Poland, where two of my transgendered female friends have committed suicide simply because it was much easier than trying to live and transition in Poland, and I have a friend who's mid-fifties, she transitioned over 16 years and despite being post-op cannot come out to her employer or family. Together with Ala I'm organizing four or five performances of my plays in cities in Poland, especially where I was well known, one of them despite the fact that my former best friend who has gone the way of the Catholic Church and right wing politics promised that he would kill me if ever we met again. That freedom and democracy won by Lech Walesa is a load of bollocks, for there are many who are still living under tyranny and oppression right up until today, even though Walesa betrayed the Poles. I have nothing against Catholics themselves, but when it comes to the Pope, the Church, Radio Maryja, and the fanatics and hooligans who turn up to the Equality Parades in Poland to hurl bricks and stones and abuse at people for being different my blood boils. I'm going there as Stella with my actors, as a theatre from England, make it all lovey dovey, international friendship but though I cannot reveal here what I intend please be sure that the truth will come out, the whole truth, and quite a few people in Poland are going to be shitting a brick. Also on a not entirely unrelated topic tomorrow I'm meeting with an actor who I know very well, I studied performing arts with him in London some years ago, when I was in my former male gender, and he wants to join my theatre. He's going to put two and two together and make four, and though it shouldn't be bothering me it's kind of stressing me out. I'm not saying anything, but you know...
