Weeding Out the Allies from the White Saviors at Standing Rock

“This issue is not about white people and their delicate, settler privileged feelings. This is about the people of the Standing Rock Sioux Nation.

Satellite of Love: Queer Horoscopes for October 2016

A pile of gigantic, fiery-hearted monsters sleeping sweetly together is a good metaphor for this month. Even the gruffest, most cynical, and most wounded amongst us should be able to find some kind of sweet solace this month. But that doesn’t mean all our problems will disappear.
