A week! It has been a week. A week it has been!
Words are failing me today, so here, have a Cyrus! He’s here to tell you: Don’t forget to take your meds, stretch a little, drink some water! And don’t forget to take breaks!
This week, Baopu #81 helped us remember to breathe.
The team kicked off an open thread of good things that happened in 2020! Read this! It’s helpful!
Sarah interviewed Marlee Grace, the author behind the queer self-help book Getting to Center.
Kayla reviewed Cracks, a boarding school monster movie where the monster in question is, in fact, very human.
This was a lovely journey: I Can Masturbate, No Hands: On Innovative Masturbation and the Power of Friendship.
Finally, feeling like you might be in crisis mode this week? Me too! Nat’s got advice for us on how we can prepare!

See a comment that needs to be here? Let me know! Tag me [at] queergirl.
Ahaha I did not expect a comment award for that comment, never mind a pull quote 😂💚 And Magic Dance was my island theme song, so it’s extra-appreciated.
Congratulations Chandra for an excellent week of commenting!
“You can recreate the entire movie Labyrinth on your island” is probably the most convincing argument to get Animal Crossing I have heard so far, tbh.
It’s so much fun! And people do incredible creative things! I’ve literally visited an island that recreated the Taj Mahal.
And look how cute, I mean honestly

OMG, this is both adorbs and remarkably accurate!
this is…so amazing???
Yes to this !
Aww thank you, glad to have my genuine fangirl enthusiasm for both Lola Rodriguez and Shelli Nicole acknowledged! I would love to play it cool, but I have already started planning for this wedding in my head (post-pandemic, of course) and am 100% willing to fly to Spain for it.
Cyrus!!!
Right, I’m just gonna go take my meds, brb.
This was A WEEK and it seems to have obliterated my Friday but never mind that, the real news is Cyrus !
What a gift. Thank You and thank Cyrus. What a great team you make !
