Hi there, friend! You know when days are good for no particular reason? It’s summery here (sorry, East Coasters), A-Camp is less than a month away, and I’ve made the decision to never, ever taste Cola flavored La Croix! Things are lookin’ up.
Speaking of camp, this Campership comes with airfare, it’s from one of my very favorite organizations, and the deadline is tonight at 11:59 PM PST! You know that little voice inside you that’s telling you to go for it? GO FOR IT!
This week, Reneice baked a double chocolate banana bread so decadent and perfect looking that I have craved it every night since I first laid eyes on it.
Rachel answered a complex question with so much insight and grace, it knocked my socks off: what do you do when you find yourself falling for a man?
Queer crosswords: You know you want ’em. (I’ve got my set already and omg, they are BRILLIANT.)
Valerie Anne wrote about Legends of Tomorrow, and how it’s become one of the best queer shows on TV! I’d better start watching.
THIS IS AN L-WORD STYLE CHART OF SUFFRAGETTES WHO SLEPT TOGETHER. It is also so much more. Well done, Sister Sally.

HOW DID I FORGET IT WAS GOING TO BE 420 WHEN I WROTE THESE
Perhaps because you….celebrated it too much?
THIS IS THE GREATEST AWARD I HAVE EVER RECEIVED IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!!!!!!
My first comment award!! Thanks for making me feel super validated folx
TRICIAAA! ?
That is supposed to be an emoji crown, but it looks so much like a school bus.
The wheels of the crown go round and round, round and round, round and round…
looks like a hamburger to me tbh
I mistook it for cheese ??
Well, Kate McKinnon drives the Magic School Bus, so it’s still a win in my book.
So you’re telling me U2 named an album after Yucca? One of the best rock albums of all time is Yucca
The Dinglehoppered Award Cracked me up but not as much as *cat face*
I’m forgetting now for certain which cat of @heatherannehogan‘s this is but I think it is Dobby? With his chicken face?
QG your awards and titles are perfect as ever! I definitely detect a more emotional selection here than usual, is this 420-induced or just joy at the start of spring?
Also, changing my name to Sister Sally forever.
