A small, brown and white dog peeking over their laptop screen, with a caption that says "Hey did you see that comment?!"

Hey there hi there ho there, campers! Did you have an American Girl doll? I had Samantha, and while I’d love to argue that she was gay, I get more of a Straight Ally President of the GSA Who Will Kiss One (1) Girl in College vibe from her. She sure did have great bangs, though!

This week, Shelli watched Dickinson, and she has HAD it with Sue.

Kayla thinks you need more books about chaotic queers in your life, and she is not! Wrong!

Are you an A+ member yet? There’s no time like the present, because on Sunday, 1/16, there’s going to be an A+ Discord Yellowjackets watch-along!

This anonymous review of the Snail Vibe made me LOL.

Can you flirt without feeling — or being seen as — predatory? A thousand times yes!

Ok, who had Aisha Dee from The Bold Type looking pretttttty queer on her Instagram on their big gay Bingo card?

Evan Rachel Wood Bisexual, as I will always know her since first day I read Autostraddle in 2015, is always a welcome addition to No Filter!

This is perfect in every way, no notes: Which Historical Lesbian Bars Would American Girl Dolls Have Visited?

The Self-Care Award to trekkie_19:

The best part of using this toy was when I eventually let myself off the hook and tossed it on the floor and let myself orgasm all over my hot date’s fist instead.

On You Need Help: Can I Flirt With My Crushes Without Being Seen as Predatory?

The Making Magic Award to cleo:

I also think that it helps to remember that flirting is something you do with someone, not at them or to them. You make a lighthearted and friendly move and see what they do – if they flirt back, you two create something together.

The Only One Bed Award to Reilly:

Look, all I see here is gals being pals. Snuggling, smooching, scissoring–but not in a gay way! It’s all about the unique bond of female friendship! I bet they’re roommates in a two-bedroom apartment, but they’re so kind and generous they’ve given one to their fleet of rescue animals, and they share the other one, which only has one bed for Interior Design Reasons.
