  1. Hahaha the mail person advice column made me think of A-Camp too. Who’s got a crush on Maggie??

    • Mailperson Maggie, a true heartthrob! Also lots of the A-Camp notes were at least crush-adjacent, so I feel like in that environment it might not be as weird to ask the delivery person out.

  2. I love all of the animal references this week: Antler Queen, Yertle the Turtle, Bird’s Anatomy.

    And hello sparklers!

  3. Yaaay, thanks XX for letting me tag along to your Shellstrop et. al. joke! And thank you QG for finding and awarding the Good Place references, you are the best of all possible Janets.

  4. I had not even considered the Chaos Gay sock option! Felt it today. Wore it today. Thank you comment awards (queer girl) and Chandra for bringing this energy into my life!
