Hello! The Comment Awards come to you this week from a friend’s kitchen table, because I am ON VACATION! That’s right, I was lovingly awoken at five a.m. by a gentle bite on the nose from a very attentive cat (who, I have been informed, was hungry), and I couldn’t be happier. Fuck the primaries! Let’s go outside and feel the sun on our faces! Let’s live our very best lives today!

This week for The Dyke Kitchen, Kamala dove into that absolutely most alluring of breakfast items, the breakfast sandwich.

Mandy wrote this essay you should read RIGHT NOW: Ain’t I A Bottom.

For Autostraddle’s Week On Being Alone, Malic wrote about being young, gay, and divorced, and Christina’s got some romance novels to read if you’re perpetually single; Jehan wrote about the trouble with roommates, and Riese brought us the definitive guide to life after love! Bless us, everyone!

Yao’s beloved Baopu series, much of which has been published right here on this very website, is now available in a collection called Everything Is Beautiful, And I’m Not Afraid! You and I can buy it, right now! I am! So! Excited!

And! Kate wrote about Love is Blind, the new straight dating show from Netflix that is absolutely chock-full of lesbian processing. (I have FEELINGS about this show, and all of them are about the illusion of intimacy that talking for hours and hours and hours can create, and how that’s why all of my queer relationships move too quickly! It’s fine! I’m not fine!)

Lol, then there were your comments!

The Not Ready to Make (Kindergarten) Award to Caitlin:

one of my earliest school memories is getting asked to share a song with our music class. lots of Disney and nursery rhymes, I bust out with a very off key, mumbled version of Godspeed. sooooo suffice to say I’m excited for the album

On Yao Xiao’s “Everything Is Beautiful, And I’m Not Afraid” Is as Queer and Hopeful as The Comic You Already Love:

The Infectious Enthusiasm Award to innaffaire:

YES! Ordered. Can’t wait to hold this in my hands. Baopu has a special place in my heart & every time I see a comic on Autostraddle, I know I’m in for a thoughtful, honest, warm experience. These comics have literally made me a more empathetic person. Yay & congrats on the book if you’re reading this, Yao Xiao!!
