Happy Sunday! I feel like this stretch between Halloween and Thanksgiving is a perfect time for hosting dinner parties. It’s before the holiday schedule gets too wild and after we’ve settled into fall a bit. What I’m saying is I hope to both throw a queer dinner party soon and also be invited to one! Take note!
For this quiz, you will answer questions as if you were planning a queer dinner party of your own, and then I will tell you what your role is at it. Your result may feel like an attack, but that’s what I’m here for. 😈

The Host! This is a great honour, but also accurate because I literally do make a spreadsheet of what everyone’s bringing for my biannual potlucks already.
i am also the host which is accurate because i like having control over the festivities and also people telling me i cooked something good
I must have picked the wrong answers… I got “the pretend bartender”. I don’t drink and have no idea how to tend bar or mix drinks. Oops.
Same! I got vegan but I am not.
I got the recipe Queen, which is entirely accurate. I’d be the Vegan Recipe Queen, I can veganise anything. I love cooking, fermenting, baking, gardening.
I got the Doomsday Queer and I feel attacked. Good job, Kayla lol. My wife got “Six Pack Masc” who brings only beer bc they don’t cook and also accurate 😂
“The Doomsday Gay
Yes, you are having a lovely time, but you WILL remind everyone about the general state of horrors the queer community is currently facing. You can connect any conversation topic back to Trump and also climate change.”
How did you get this accurate read of me as someone who’s not even in the US! :D
