Including Autostraddle’s own Lydia and A-Camper Magda!

“Queer Sultry Summer,” the newest full-color mini-book from Autostraddle and Everyone is Gay, featuring new writing, illustrations by Rory Midhani, and an exclusive original Lumberjanes comic and so much more. It’s the best thing we’ve ever made. Seriously.

Alison’s brother’s imaginary friend is A, duh.

Let’s talk about that feeling of having our feet on the ground for once, ya know? Or just share pictures of your puppy so we can all squeal with delight. LET’S JUST HANG OUT, OKAY? Okay!
