But somehow the vital connection is made

[sovay]

To my absolute shock, international mail brought the Blu-Ray I had ordered of Girl Stroke Boy (1971) and with far more dispatch than the regular workings of the U.S. postal system, judging by the simultaneous arrival of the return receipt for last month's rent check. The booklet with its numerous production stills has already been illuminating as well as enjoyable. Successfully ordering a physical copy of an interracial queer and trans film from another country feels like a much bigger deal than it would have eleven months ago.

May I ask what the postage was? I recently decided against buying a small enamel pin from a museum shop in Seoul because the postage would be $29. Mail from the UK isn't usually cheap either.

Of course: £10/$13, which it made it worth the risk since the disc was on such a discount. What really blew my mind was that it took about five days. I'm sorry the postage from Seoul was prohibitive!
