Pride!

September 07 2017

I just thought I would share this, in particular for our non UK friends who may not yet have seen the film 'Pride' 

Here is a synopsis from IMDB 

In 1984 20 year old closet gay Joe hesitantly arrives in London from Bromley for his first Gay Pride march and is taken under the collective wing of a group of gay men and Lesbian Steph, who meet at flamboyant Jonathan and his Welsh partner Gethin's Soho bookshop. Not only are gays being threatened by Thatcher but the miners are on strike in response to her pit closures and Northern Irish activist Mark Ashton believes gays and miners should show solidarity. Almost by accident a mini-bus full of gays find themselves in the Welsh village of Onllwyn in the Dulais valley and through their sincere fund raising and Jonathan's nifty disco moves persuade most of the community that they are on the same side. When a bigot tries to sabotage the partnership with a tabloid smear Mark turns it back on her with a hugely successful benefit concert to which most of the villagers, now thoroughly in tune with their gay friends, turn up. The miners are defeated and return to work but at the Pride march the following year a vast contingent of miners show up to repay their comrades with their show of support. 

Be warned you will need a box of tissues! (Behave!) 

My first pride march was in 1982 I attended in 83 and in 85 and witnessed the miners coming to support us. It was a seminal moment in LGBT history here in the UK. On Pride marches in the 80's. We where abused spat at and if you got separated you may well have been physically assaulted. And that was just from the police. in 1985 when the colliery bands and miners turned up it changed everything. We where no longer alone in our fight! Later that year the Labour party enshrined Gay rights into their constitution largely on a block vote from the NUM (National Union of Mineworkers)

Today is the anniversary of the death of Mark Aston. He was the leading light of Gays Support the Miners and now he is remembered with a blue plaque (significant and notable figures in the UK are marked with a blue plaque at the place they lived or worked)

Watch the film with pride and for you young'uns remember it was the sacrifice and fight of my generation that gave us much of the freedoms we enjoyed today!

Ive always wanted to play Dead by daylight with others, the games cheap at around £14 on steam... and places like cdkeys or G2A sell the digital keys for around £7 (where I got mine)
That would be so much fun to play with others.. im tired of playing with strangers :( 

I had a another very.. cheesy idea, about minecraft.
Ive never played it.. and I dont understand the various Editions.
But these people got together and made a massive building project.. to recreate the Enterprise D. after time others got involved to to help build this ship.. and its still on going.. ill link a video tube at the bottom.

Id love it if we got together to do something similar.. build a project.. even if its a the SGN mansion/head quarters.
I think it will be fun just to pop in there in your spare time.. jump in chat and start building things.

Hello members! 

Since the success of the Overwatch Team up weekend a few months back and Volerons Poker nights, also from observing the chatter in our SGN discord rooms about various games people would like to try.. we thought it a good idea to get an idea of what Games you would like to team up in, alongside fellow Stonewall members.

By teaming in these various games we hope to get some SGN members that maybe shy away from teaming, or people who find it hard to join public teams in their favourite games outside of SGN/STO/GW2/SWTOR.
We could play With friends, in the safe environment of SGN.

To get a good idea of what games you maybe interested in.. and what time you normally relax to play a game we've put together a very short survey and we would be interested to see the results.







After we take a look at the results we could see what type of games people want to play.. or look at what appears to be popular in this forum post and we could maybe set up a day/weekend to play a certain or various games together.

Obviously we have a few barriers.. such as we are all dotted around the globe so finding the right time when everyone could jump in.


Please feel free to suggest any games you would love to play with your fellow SGN members on this post.

Congratulations to all...I wasn't able to participate in the fleet event, but I can honestly say I managed to pull 53 or 54 rounds with a pug(!) last night. That was probably the best pug I've ever run with, tbh. It ended with an Eidolon unkillably stuck in a wall, so we had to commit a mass Hegh'bat to end the session.

And here all I wanted at the time was 5 rounds for the stupid token and then on to the next toon!  :P
