Happy Sunday amigx! I’ve been back from A-Camp X for six (6) days and I have cried for at least four (4) of them! Camp was great for me. The workshops were great, the site was great, an I very casually changed my name to Al(aina)! I love the magic of that place and hope you get to go at least once if you’ve never been. Even though I’m a little sad, there’s so much good stuff and happiness in the world that I can’t wait to get into with you!
Queer Women are Obviously Magical Creatures
Isabella Rotman is a damn hero! Not only did she get three of the four flags she designed for A-Camp back, she uploaded the designs as prints! That you can buy! Right now!
Hi! I just threw all 4 of my A-camp X flag designs up on @society6, so you can now get them as prints, mugs, notebooks, beach towels etc. No shirts for now unfortunately, S6 didnāt have the right colors to rep all the teams. https://t.co/bHnxSQA3qM pic.twitter.com/gUB2Mj7ReG

We’re gonna have lesbian witches on British television!!! This is what Sabrina the Teenaged Witch wished it could’ve been and I’m hecking thrilled.
Dave Carney, a GOP consultant in Texas since 1993 and Gov. Greg Abbott’s top strategist, chortled about “the pot smoking lesbian coalition,” as he called this year’s Democratic slate.
(On Friday, after this story was published online, Texas DemocratsĀ began selling “pot smoking lesbian coalition” T-shirts and other wares, mocking the Abbott camp’s concern about their “amazing Democratic slate and big tent party.”)
Women Who Make Everyone’s Life Better
LOOK AT ALL THESE LADIES IN TUXES AT THIS GAY ASS WEDDING!!!
Five Muslim women talk about their goals for Ramadan this year.
Activist Johnetta Elzie talks about what it took to come out to her family.
I’m so glad to be a part of this community of people who love and support women! I’m so happy so many cool things happened this week! I’m so happy I had so many good experiences on a hill with a bunch of queers the week before that! I’m so happy you’re alive! Happy Sunday pals!
FYI the Texas Dems link says “You do not have permission to access”
I got the same message and I wanna buy it so baaaaad
i think it sold out!!! ā¹ļøā¹ļø
Idea for the next AS t-shirt design?
aaahaahaha the thirst games opening(?) ceremonies!
Closing ceremony procession when we sang “Pomp and Circumstance,” aka the graduation song! And now that song is linked in my mind to vibrators ?
Hi Al! It was really great meeting you! And also, can I put “pot smoking lesbian” on my headstone?
I have a lot of feelings about that wedding photo. ???
the buzzfeed article gives so many more pictures and i was OVERWHELMED when i found out it was a gay wedding. like THIS ONE is SOOOO GOOD
Does one have to go to Texas to join this lesbian coalition, or can I start a Bay Area chapter?
Lisa, I think you need to start a chapter.
sign me the eff up!
fully willing to join a greater bay area/sacramento region chapter if someone starts one
Y’all let me finish my qualifying exams in September, and I’ll celebrate with a meet-up.
I’m so excited about ‘A Discovery of Witches’! I’ve been a huge fan of Alex Kingston since she played Moll Flanders (a mini series way back in ’96, a time famed for it’s lack queer content – my confused little bisexual heart jumped for joy to see a such a character!).
Also, in the same article Pink News presents ‘Sirens’ as something positive to look forward to?! Reading the synopsis made me feel physically queasy…. “a show about a bisexual mermaid who appears in a small fishing town and starts laying waste to its inhabitants and their relationships.” Yaaaaaaaay… :/
