This is the playlist I used in my writing workshop at camp this year!

An explainer on McKinney and Eric Casebolt, the police officer who killed Walter Scott was indicted, an airline is giving you flight discounts to Pride event destinations and school administrators told students to remove their “Gay Ok” t-shirts and more news stories!

Barney’s back! But there are some weird snow monsters! And a gorgeous but mysterious hunter woman! What’s going on!?!

I left the real world to hang out on the mountain but I’m not looking to leave the Autostraddle universe anytime soon, so let’s just hold each other or whatever. GET IN HERE!
