Hi mittens! Is it fall yet? Please?

This week, the straights were most definitely at it again.

Carrie for President 2032! I’m openly weeping at the pantsuit opportunities alone.

Riese gave us this important remembrance of Edith Windsor.

I’m just a seatbelt, standing in front of another seatbelt, asking her to love me: Crystal brought us some of the weirdest anti-equality ad campaigns from Australia’s fight for equal marriage laws.

This is powerful and perfect. And also NSFW.

In maybe the best news I’ve heard so far in 2017, Beyoncé has chosen Laverne Cox as a brand ambassador!

DEMI LOVATO MIGHT CURRENTLY HAVE A GAL PAL. Does Mey know about this? (Edit: She does.)

And then there were your comments!

The Fabric of Our Lives Award to Rous Rose:

I love the Discovery Channel side of Autostraddle. Discovery flannel.

The Fresh Choice Award to Lisa, Hannah, and Snaelle:

Also do not use a vagina as a champagne flute. I *heard* it might lead to an emergency room visit and condescending looks from medical professionals.

And the $300,000 Pyramid Award to PaperoFlowers:

It took me a number of times to read that passage describing the “jealous bestman

On BREAKING: Demi Lovato Almost Maybe Possibly Has a Girlfriend Now:

On Australia’s Anti-Same Sex Marriage Ads Ranked by Queerness:

The Clacking Game Award to Sam:

fruitlessly clacking against each other in sin

And the Life…Finds a Way Award to Kristana, love ain’t no billy goat, and Gilbert:

Kristana: Gif of Bill Paxton frantically tying his seatbelt together in the helicopter in Jurassic Park / love ain't no billy goat: life finds a way / Gilbert: Finally instructions for scissoring!

On Pop Culture Fix: Samira Wiley Is Out Here Gaying Up Women’s Magazines, Saving The World:

The Jenny’s Wedding Award to Vicky and Al:

Queer Girl: I mean, since more wedding weekend rom-coms will probably always be in Hollywood’s future, this could either be an amazing (or a terrible) queer version of Meet the Parents. / Cindy: As long as Ilene Chaiken doesn't write it. / Al: Someone dies on the wedding day, a bi character becomes biphobic, for some reason the POC character is play the wrong ethnicity(not even from the same continent), and fucking Jenny is directing the wedding.
