Reine #24: Oasis

In a five panel comic in pastel colors, someone is on a job in a small town where they are unfamiliar. They wonder, "where are my people?" when they encounter a coffee shop. The barista is a femme with multiple piercings and the runner sighs. The barista asks what they'd like to drink and they respond, "I'm just here for the vibes."


Autostraddle cannot exist without the generous support of our readers. We need to raise $175k in the next 2 weeks — or we won't make it to Pride. And a world without Autostraddle would be a loss on so many levels. Help us keep this indie queer media boat afloat! Every dollar helps.

  1. Aw I loved this. The town where I’m currently stuck in is mostly white/old conservative republicans (lots of boring men.) But there’s this one bookstore in the downtown area called fireside books that sells great content and the people there are so nice. (and super queer.)
