Hey there, you crazy kids! Guess what: this is my 69th post for Autostraddle! And I just wanted to say that I receive so much from all of you — I hope that I’m giving enough back.

(I’m so sorry).

This week, Heather interviewed Rachel Weisz about her new film Disobedience! I assume Heather is now dead, and continuing to show up for work as a ghost, like a much more interesting version of Professor Binns.

Okay, this is so comprehensive and amazing: Laura put together a complete list of LGBTQ women running for United States office!

Carmen is recapping Vida, and it looks amazing.

Mey wrote up a helpful guide to sleeping with trans women! I am loving this Sex 101 series.

I don’t know if you heard, but Lena Waithe won the Met Gala.

Mika launched a fashion advice column, and it’s perfect!

THIS IS RELEVANT TO MY INTERESTS: Lesbian and Bisexual Women of History Who Were Obsessed With Their Dogs, Part 1. I read this to my dog and he loved it.

Queer! Alien! Makeup!
