Cameron is an illustrator hailing from Ohio. When she’s not drawing, she’s probably very, very quietly having loud thoughts about: queer things, her eventual shop, what to watch next on Netflix, food, names for her future pets, and tumblr.
Cameron has written 76 articles for us.
It mind-boggling (and tiresome and exhausting) how quickly and vehemently people who see no problem with racism get offended at the idea of anything disparaging white (and/or straight) people.
Make Halloween scary (for white people/ racists) again.

Words to live by.
also cameron really can take a knife to a pumpkin!!!
I feel the opposite! I usually don’t get into Halloween but this year I am feeling the extreme need to be someone/thing else for a night. Something that doesn’t have to worry about politics or rights being taken away, like a dinosaur or a fictional witch.
Also, I’m thankful for queer-only Halloween parties. Not that our community is without those problems, but the likelihood of seeing a racist Halloween costume is much lower.
This is effin’ brilliant !
I nearly choked on a bite of my “by-my-own-hand”-picked apple. I’m so glad to see my feels for Halloween expressed so perfectly.
