Hello Thrill Seekers!
True story: I talk in my sleep. Carrie is making a list. This week I said “hashtag the body…the dead body” (this is funny because I’m not the kind of person who can pull off using hashtags in any context) and “I want a taco.” I don’t know why. I probably didn’t really want a taco. Although right now, as I type this, I kind of DO want a taco, so…
Also The Million Dollar Duck documentary is highly recommended if you just want to check out of reality for about an hour and enter a world free from politics and full of pretty duck paintings. It has a side story about a blind dog that paints (not ducks). Your heart will be touched.
When not watching documentaries about water fowl, the week was full of Autostraddle goodness.
You might get that chance to kiss Angelina Jolie after all.
Alex of Supergirl fame comes out. Not to be outdone, the gay girl from Scream is gay in real life.
Abby Wambach has a new boo.
Speaking of hearts being touched…Kate McKinnon as Hillary Clinton singing Hallelujah.
Also queer nuns! And Comments!

Queergirl dropping a serious truth bomb
I mean I still don’t get why so many liberal politicians and celebrities are acting like this is all normal, business as usual, etc. Was there a chapter in Harry Potter backstory where all the people are like “give Voldemort a chance to lead?”
I bet Cornelius Fudge did.
And very well respected pure blood families supported it all
And inevitably in the future they’ll scurry back into hiding. I seem to recall the Voldemort supporters getting emboldened and intimidating people at a major sporting event.
