historical context
I do think it's fair to say that you have to view MLK's theoretical views on LGBTQ equality in the historical context of the black church; because otherwise you'd be somehow ignoring the fact that the national debate on LGBTQ equality did not exist in the 50's & 60's. if he'd lived just one...
nice post
I find that people who are easily offended by *your* relationship to *your* own identity are generally deeply insecure about their own identity in some way. I thought this was a good post, you're being honest about your own interior process, what more can you do? I also, for whatever it's worth,...

corrupt animal shelters. is nothing sacred?! also, I now officially hate both of you for having been to all these amazing places. ;p
preach
amen. as a fellow holder of two separate degrees both labeled "intellectual masturbation" by some significant segment of the population (women's studies and media studies), I totally agree that our country has no future without education-- not just trade training, but a rigorous exploration of the...

So happy to HAVE you home, girl! and the snuggie rock doesn't hurt, either ;p

what a fantastic grab-bag of queer arts! can't wait to see the show (and a certain enormous painting done by a certain velvetpark intern...) you're a renaissance queer, sarah! ;p
good advice
thanks for the gentle reminders, k-- I know I spent a lot more time in my last relationship taking care of her needs than meeting my own. it took me a long-ass time to really see that, and stand up for myself and my own needs! definitely a healthy reminder for ALL of us, on a regular basis
writing for yourself is the
writing for yourself is the best kind of writing...and almost always finds its own audience! we're glad to have you here too

yeah, I posted that link w/ your piece. excited to watch. I just mentioned needles to my roommate, who is also from Iowa, and he was like, "yeah, we went to high school together!" six degrees of kevin bacon, indeed...
who's rapinoe?
I dunno who rapinoe is, but I can certainly get on board with MOAR TIG in nyc!!! woot woot.
nice
LOVE this. I don't watch rupaul's drag race regularly (in fact, it's the only reality show I'll watch AT ALL) but now I shall have to catch up on last season so I can experience miss needles in her "RuMageddon" glory. You really articulated the extra layer of delicious transgression in her look...
worrrrrrd
what a sweet blast from the past. it's so interesting to hear from 2002 margaret cho right now, 10 years later, because so much of what she talks about in terms of young people mobilizing through the power of the web has come to pass, and then some. visionary! and funny! and hot
I dunno, I think it rolls off
I dunno, I think it rolls off the tongue pretty well...plus it reminds me of this amaaaaazing homemade bacon-infused bourbon I had at a dinner party last year. OMGZZ. and now I'm in a happy place! no complaints

I feel like you just
I feel like you just described the difference between the LGBT community and the queer community. right?? sometimes I feel like ye olde mainstream LGBT community has made queer a dirty word for us (or, tried to). and also, feminism had to go through the same shit too...NOW vs the riot grrrrlz......
yep
my little cousin got it at camp a couple summers ago, but they also caught it early, and although my aunt says he was very sick for a few weeks, he hasn't had any problems since. I think it is the early detection that makes all the difference. glad you were ok lady
word
this is righteous. also just reminded me how much lyme disease scared the shit out of me when I was a kid...damn. tiny ass little deer tick parasite fuckers. gahhhhh.
my mom had chronic fatigue syndrome in the late 80's & early 90's, and her doctors told her it was all in her head for...

yeah, but her everyday
yeah, but her everyday wardrobe of track suits are baggey enough that you wouldn't notice anything until it was big enough to push against the fabric. that baby bump didn't seem all that implausible to me compared to most of the regular glee mishegas!
