Happy birthday Freddie Mercury!

Born on 5 September 1946, Freddie would have been 77 today. We often focus on public images of him as the frontman of Queen, but on his birthday today I thought I'd post some of my favourite pictures of him just hanging out with his partner, barber Jim Hutton. Freddie and Jim were together for seven years, and although gay marriage was illegal in Britain at the time, they exchanged rings to symbolise their commitment to each other.

Listen I know that the famous artists and social revolutionaries of the 60s and 70s mostly didn't unlearn the majority of their biases and by today's standards are far less progressive than they believe themselves to be but make a more musically engaging and revolutionary album than sheer heart attack and maybe I'll start listening to your boring electro pop

Freddie Mercury (5 September, 1946 – ∞)

I don't think of myself as a legend. Me and legends don't get on. I'm just a little sweetheart ... I'm a sweetie. To me a legend is somebody like Montserrat Caballé. She's the legend and I'm just an old tart. I don't want to draw parallels to anybody else, because I don't think I have a parallel.

Do you have any new Queen fic plan? Love your writing....

I don’t unfortunately. I did all that I wanted to do, and wrapped everything up with my series and cleared my WIP’s. Thank you so much for loving my writing, I have a soft spot for a lot of those fics!

Fanfiction reading apps like Fanfic Pocket Library Archive also take original works off ao3, so if you use this app, PLEASE DON'T. Uninstall it, leave a bad review, spread the word that what the developer is doing is very disrespectful (and dubiously legal) to the authors.

We don't repost art in 2020. Let's extend that courtesy to writers 👏👏👏
