Once you figure out what feeling you were chasing, you can start working toward it – and getting a solid taste of it — every day. And that, my friend, seriously changes everything.
Improving your finances, free moving boxes, deciding between Advil and Tylenol, changing your oil, some special words from Riese about keeping your workspace neat, and more!
Grab a glass of water and stay a while; it’s gonna be a wild ride.
I’m on the mountain this week, so please enjoy the following smut.
Breaking glass ceilings in education, bisexual books, and also cute stuff you’ll love!
This year, I’m going to encourage everyone to unplug when they take their closest queer pack into the woods — as little tech as possible is the name of the game. But that doesn’t mean you need to give up your nerd.
Five non-itinerary things that make A-Camp, A-Camp. In no particular order.
Topics include indoor malls, therapy, queer identity (well it’s more complicated than that — you’ll see), Judy Blume, domestic abuse in South Carolina and more.
So, we’re not at A-Camp. We can still bask in our queer feels and hang out here on the open thread. Also, Mari’s getting married tomorrow.
You are in love with someone who wants different things. What do you do?

The Queers and Comics conference took place on May 7th and 8th — here’s what Joana Estrela thought about it!
Limitting a tasting to one specific distillery is like reading something you like and then picking up every book the author ever wrote. Becoming familiar with one distillery’s whiskeys gives you the chance to talk about their body of work as a whole.
This is the best strap-on harness I have ever worn.
Sex scenes in YA, rereading books, stealing a pen from Douglas Adams’s grave and more.
Research on nationwide LGBT legal equality, bisexuals in the UK, racism in the university classroom, and religion. PLUS updates on your fave/least fave Republicans, police practices overhaul in Cleveland, new laws and more!
The QTPOC Speakeasy is throwing a house party/pajama jam on Mt. Feelings and everyone’s invited! Come for the throwbacks, stay for the dance-off. We even put together a mini-playlist for you, bb.
In preparing for this, my first A-Camp, I’ve turned to movies and TV to give me inspiration and calm my nerves. Hopefully I made the right choices, but if not, at least I had some entertainment while I packed.
“I’m the most content I’ve ever been.”
