You said you missed the Friday Open Threads, so we’re bringing them back!
Shelter In Our Place 2 launches on Monday and we can’t wait to see you there.
“Wearing pants? In this economy?”
“We want to create the interconnectedness necessary to build futures together.”
People are coming together around this thing we’re doing – and so many other mutual aid projects – and it’s more powerful and vibrant than almost anything I’d experienced in a decade of activism.
“Can’t wait to see who else’s subconscious is ALSO going through a Rolodex of their exes!”
Our way is a commitment to long lasting change, to self-sufficiency, to inter-dependence and to creating the world we want to see.
Welcome to COMMUNITY CHECK, a series about mutual aid and taking care of each other in the time of coronavirus.
We’re entering month 567 of a global pandemic, and you may be having some weird sex dreams! Here at autostraddle dot com, we’d love to hear about them in a respectful manner, for journalism.
“Community is a very complicated and roomy word. Rural queer people also have other layers of identity that inform their realities.”
“Magic Wand as mic is always SO GOOD.”
“P.S. I’d hoped the picture I submitted would be with my neighborhood turkey that I’ve enjoyed searching for on my daily walk…”
“Could you not have shipped out some PPE before we read this article? I just spit out my tea laughing, and probably infected the tomato plants.”
I hope you sit for a moment and know that you gifted us — and so many other people — with a serious dose of hope. You are making sustainable, community-supported independent queer media possible.

There’s who you’re physically/romantically attracted to, and then there’s who you want to date, and then there’s who you want to sleep with — and all of these can be different things, all of which can also change! Yet we’re expected to align under a single label.
What is in your lesbian canon? What books, movies and music do you consider essential lesbian material and/or lesbian art that is essential to your own understanding of your identity?
Because we all need some queer joy in our lives, we’re going to throw you a (pay-what-you-want) variety show if we meet this goal! Think comedy, think music! Think of all of us pretending we’re bumping into each other in front of a stage and spilling drinks and showing off haircuts maybe done by a professional (or a friend who was able to come over) and laughing (well, you can still laugh from where you are) all together. That’s what it will be like in spirit. I want this so much for us! If everyone who clicked away the pop-up today gave $9.35, we’d ZOOM past our stretch goal!
“Proof that mullets are the gayest thing: I had one in sixth grade!”
