The Comment Awards Are Lubing Up

Hi there! I’m going to go old-school and say that your hair is looking great today! And I really like that shirt! And I just think you’re swell. It’s Friday! We made it! I love you!

This week, Rachel wrote an ode to rude women.

For the latest installment of Dyke Kitchen, Kamala brought inspiration from Chani Nicholas, Tracy Chapman & Bette Porter to the table.

Carmen’s got an master list of Autostraddle pieces to check out as we start Black History Month.

Life’s too short! Wear band t-shirts to their concerts! (I love seeing Lindsay King-Miller at Autostraddle!)

Keah’s here with a thank-you to the women who inspired her (bi)sexual awakening.

Valentine’s Day Date Ideas I’ve Had Since My Wife Left Me Six Months Ago. Lol.

Heather wrote about the TV shows giving us permission to leave the people who hurt us.

Shelli watched Shrill, and fell in love with Fran.

On The Dyke Kitchen: Dishes inspired by Chani Nicholas, Tracy Chapman & Bette Porter:

On Also.Also.Also: 49ers Lose Super Bowl, but Lesbian Coach Katie Sowers Is Still a Winner, Baby!

On People Who Helped Me Come To My (Bi)sexual Awakening: A Short Thank You List:

The All Lubed Up Award to Duck and Deli Twotone:

Duck: Go out and buy a bicycle chain degreaser. Then proceed to deep clean and lube your bike chain. Bicycle maintenance is important.

PHEW. Because I already have had such confusing feelings in my loins re: Cate Blanchett as Phyllis. I never thought my loins and Phyllis would be in the same thought. It’s horrible.

  1. Smooth advice from Duck. If you’ve been told to get on your bike, then taking care of your solitary ride to make it the best ever just makes sense.

  2. Life is too short! leave the people who hurt you! Wear band tshirts to their concert! Have dinner with Bette Porter, who isn’t afraid to have sex with your wife

  3. Thank you QG! You look great too! We ALL look great.

    I’m at work and wearing a shirt that is older than many of my coworkers – feeling pretty impressed with myself for hanging on to at least one late 80s/early 90s piece of clothing long enough for it to come back in fashion. (usually I hang on to favorite clothes for years if not decades and then downsize them like 2 years before they come back and then I miss them).

  4. QG ! The Life Aquarius ! This is me ! And thank you for liking my hair, it is très cool if I say so myself.

    Hugs !
