Hi, friends! Okay, it’s confession time: I have someone new in my life. Actually, it’s several someones, and they are perfect, and their names are Adora and Glimmer and Catra and Bow. I HAVE BEEN WATCHING SHE-RA. It is so good! It is so gay! Every character is so dreamy! Listen, I don’t know how animated characters are this dreamy, but they are. It’s a fact. And the whole show is such a gift of all-gender plus-ones and suits with untied bowties and so many complex and rewarding friendships! I’m in love!
Anyway…
This week, Audrey published this essay that I first heard at A-Camp, and never really got over: How I Learned to Tie a Tie Without My Dad.
Heather made us this handy flow-chart to help us figure out which Christmas movie to watch.
Want to make a sexy video, but not sure where to start? Courtney’s got you.
Rachel wrote about that old gay staple, the white tee.
Riese investigated the allure and mystery of the Bisexual Bob.
You know how every single one of us are constantly yearning for a Hallmark-style Christmas romance movie of our very own? IT’S HAPPENING! A LESBIAN CHRISTMAS ROMANCE IS HAPPENING! And it will star our very own master of emotion, Kristen Stewart. This is a big deal.
In their 69th post for Autosraddle (nice), Archie brought us this perfect gift guide: Let’s Scissor Under the Mistletoe.
The TV Team wrote about their very favorite (and their least-favorite) queer and trans characters of the year.

Only 4 more weeks until your 100th article QG!
woooooooo
Prepare something special for your centennial
I confess that The A.L.F. Award left me scratching my head.
I was thinking of Alien Life Form
Haha hopefully the feathers settled and you figured it out, especially because you were my wing woman!
These puns are such…vapid fluff. :ducks: ;)
They’re not all they’re quacked up to be
Oh yeah, It did!
But for a few seconds I was thinking Gordon Shumway and the planet Melmac
Hah, me too!
#olderstraddler
OlderStraddler high five! But gently, arthritis… you know…
Thank you, Queer Girl!!! Today is my birthday and this was a wonderful present.
happy, happy birthday, ottergirl! <3
Ahh thanks, if Cate Blanchett ever did that to me in person I would probably faint with all the hotness! The gif is just the right amount of celebration.
If one is a gay witch, does that make one a Magic Dyke? Asking for 90% of my friends. And me.
IF THE HAT FITS, EMERSON :-D
Good work everyone! A+ commenting and awarding!
I think my favorite award this week is The Vangayrd Award.
Oh my friends, I survived my first week of my new freelance web design/dev gig. I’m temping at a super fancy (to me) place and I’m so disoriented after the past few years of hand to mouth gigs. But in good way. I think. I did find my first queer friend there Thurs.
Vangayrd Award was truly masterful
QG is fantastic at this
THANKS LOVES
I’m so glad you survived your first week! I feel like the first three months, I’m always a bit of a mess! <3
Oh wow! What a treat to find this award— here at 11:15 at night, sitting on the couch in my boxers, eating a popsicle. ?Thanks QG!
I’m cherishing this image
