I’m from the same place that Gadsby is from (not this freak) - state, not town, and I am chronically embarrassed that freakazoid is somehow considered representative of this place…
Wanna know what’s weird, though? Gadsby comes from a town that has produced two of the probably most “prominent” gay people in the country, and yet, it is possibly the least gay place you can imagine…
It’s small. Less than 15k. Working class. Not wealthy. Not particularly “tertiary educated*. Old. Full of OLD people. And in the 90s they had fucking anti gay riots there. So much so that the fucking UN (and no, I am not making this up) called out the state government, over it. Seriously. And I was fucking alive at this point, yet now, now it (the state, at least) claims to be “gay paradise”, and fucking Gadsby and Rodney Croome (the guy who pretty much ran the gay marriage campaign, a few years back, in Aus) are two of Ulverstone’s “most famous exports…
Like, what the fuck??!
If that isn’t subversion, or some very, very unnatural change, in 25 fucking years, I honestly don’t know what is… 😑

Old people died or were replaced by pod pedos? Seriously, if they represent gay people, I am now Super Straight.
