Hey I'm gonna start building the site tomorrow and hopefully launch it in a couple weeks, but I'd like to get some submissions for it beforehand. So if you're queer/POC/marginalized and make /anything/ send me a blurb and links to your work at submission@thequeer.community.

Wow, the _History is Gay_ podcast is really good.

Three eps in, and they’ve had queer pirates, queer monks & nuns, and queer imperial-China aristocrats.

Each ep also gets into how sex & sexuality are perceived in these times and places, so you get a lot of context.

And, the whole approach is affirming and fun.

@tomharris I’ve also often heard the -ma- infix in “journamalism.”

@KitRedgrave@glitch.social So much agree. And since lawn grass is never allowed to seed, and is non-native, it requires insane resources to upkeep, resulting in nitrogen fertilizer runoff & huge carbon footprint.

The Second Coming happened but Jesus was detained by ICE.

At some point, I learned that it’s easier on my back, when reaching down for things, to lift one leg crooked behind me. So now when I pick up the tv remote I’m a graceful dancer.

@jk Which is the same as the number of scoops of coffee grounds per cups of coffee, and now we have a Grand Unified Theory of breakfast.

@jk The correct time for bacon 🥓 seems to be one minute per slice plus one minute for no reason.

ONE WEEK I THINK SINCE YOU LOOKED AT ME IM NOT SURE

@Nine I agree, but the post reminds me of a quote (probably facetiously and spuriously) attributed to Audubon concerning the Rock Dove:

“I say it’s a pigeon and I say the hell with it.”

—Joey Slinger, _Down and Dirty Birding_

@bringles@glitch.social I sometimes think it’d be nice if we all had epithets like “white-armed Athena”, “swift-footed Achilles”, and so on. We could think of complimentary ones for our friends and use them with pride.
