"Hey, did you see that comment?"

Sex Benching is the new Glove Lunching, didn’t you know?

Friends! Pals. Lights of my life! Next week is A-Camp, and I am freaking out! If you’re going to camp, and you’re freaking out, I’m here for you; also if you’re NOT going to camp, and freaking out about THAT, I am absolutely here for you! At this time, I’m going to go ahead and ask you to remind me that I cannot buy another jean jacket, I do not have the MONEY for a jean jacket, please and thank you! I can’t wait to see some of you on the mountain in the valley, and I can’t wait to return to all of the rest of you the following week!

Anyway! This week, Reneice made Pride cookies.

Molly reviewed Kristen Arnett’s Mostly Dead Things, the book I would absolutely be reading at camp if I ever had time to read at camp.

Taylor wrote about hunting as a black, queer woman of color.

Courtney wants you to go on a casual date!

It’s nearly June – want to host a Pride meet-up in your city for Autostraddle dot com?

Anon reviewed the Womanizer, which apparently remains – to this day! – the best sex toy with the worst name.

Valerie Anne (hilariously) reviewed The Perfection, the most bananas horror movie I have ever seen, that also happens to be queer!

THIS SERIES IS A LOT AND I LOVE IT: YES NO MAYBE: Intergalactic Aliens and Magical Dildos.
