Hi, bbs! I’m back from A-Camp and the rumors are true, I did in fact have an amazing time and also see Heather Hogan at the pool! I ALSO SAW HER IN A WAISTCOAT AND TOP HAT. Not to brag, or anything. Camp is truly a magical place!
Meanwhile, back at another magical place called Autostraddle dot com, Reneice made a pink lemonade tart that I absolutely want to be eating right now!
Roxane Gay and Debbie Millman are in love and it’s fucking amazing?
This was so, SO good: Our Solution to Climate Crisis Is Each Other.
Queer Eye‘s Jonathan Van Ness came out as non-binary, and Drew wrote these beautiful words about it.
Kate Moenig and Leisha Hailey went to Pride in this week’s No Filter.
Christina wrote about healthy relationships and the narratives we tell about ourselves.
And then there were your comments! (There are a lot of EARNEST comments, I feel like I’m in a very earnest place after camp this time!)

See a comment that needs to be here? @ me! I’m [at] queergirl on Autostraddle and [at] queergirlblogs on Twitter.
Welcome back QG!
Don’t stay earnest for too long
Happy to know you had a good time QG
Heather Hogan called me a beer asshole at this same pool and it was worth my very peeling shoulders!!!
I would ask her to smack my beer ass but then again I’m more of a vodka asshole myself…
So glad we finally got to meet at camp!! And I love the earnest comments, they’re important (and also very sweet).
Yay you two met!
Welcome back QG!
When you get a freckle, a gay angel gets her wings. For the Cause !
I love coming back to the site after a week at camp (and sleeping) to see all the beautiful things that happened here too!
Also, I’m completely here for earnestness. It’s one of my favorite things ❤️
Welcome back!
I’m excited that my love for Cherie Jaffe and Mommis was worthy of a comment award!
