David Fincher's 1999 film (and Chuck Palahniuk's source novel) has had a huge impact on audiences worldwide leading to spoofs, homage, merchandising and numerous Internet fan sites.

Early in its DVD afterlife, however, a wider audience began to appreciate the film's significance and radical message.

'Bboy' means 'boy' in a very particular form of internet cat-speak. You can pronounce it 'boy', 'buh-boy' or 'bee-boy', whatever makes your heart happiest. It's not always easy to live your life with kindness, but Ellen Murray and her cat Bilbo are doing their best to spread messages of positivity to their followers. As an LGBT+ and disability activist, Ellen's goal has always been to make love, care and safety a reality for all - but fighting for your own rights or standing as an ally to others can be daunting, intimidating and confusing work. How to Be a Good Bboy is an accessible guide to understanding what human rights work is all about: how to get involved, navigate the inevitable pitfalls, overcome imposter syndrome and own your vulnerability and power. It is about Bilbo, and about Ellen. About her work, and about how Bilbo's online presence is not just an accessory to that work but a way to channel the greater goals of her activism to a wider audience. It is about dignity, respect and justice, and ultimately how to be a very good bboy.
