IN DEFENSE OF THE HOT MESS / A CALL FOR LADY...
findesiecle: Lately I’ve been really into weird concepts of something like failed, desperate, self-conscious deliberate performative femininity? Part of this is evidenced by the fact that I’ve been doing my hair in big curls with my kinda-crappy-blonde-dye-job and wearing a ridiculous faux-leopard coat with ripped tights and messy eyeliner, and part of it comes together more in at least 47...

self-care
strange form of self-care for the week? unfollowing tumblrs that feel the need to respond to every negative message (anonymous or not) or reblog that ever gets sent their way. i mean, do what you gotta do, but just reading a line or two and scrolling past puts me in such a bad mood. i’m really trying to refocus what kind of conversations i feel are feasible, realistic and productive to try...

Instead Of An Interview With Xtra
raespoon: Where I grew up it was pretty much impossible to find a queer publication. We had to sneak downtown and buy the Advocate from the same magazine store that used to sell cigarettes to underage kids. I remember once going to a café because I heard a rumor that it belonged to a queer couple. My High School date and I then sat huddled together waiting for some sort of acceptance to happen,...

My resistance, invisible?
de-la-tourelle: I came home (Quebec City) for the holidays last week. I have been gone for over 3 months so seeing all the wonderful people in my life is pretty awesome.  On thursday, I went out with friends to our favorite dancefloor, Le Drague, a club we go regularly when I am in town. We love to dance and be lavishly glamourous, ya dig? ;) Having a smoke outside with my best bud Alex, we...

in other notable news
i awkwardly came out to my boss and some of my colleagues over friday night beers last night? which came out of and lead to an intense conversation around the word queer, the term partner, what it means for a queer woman to marry a (straight cis) man, etc. etc. overall, it was pretty good - but i hope it won’t mean awkwardness when we’re all sober. i tend to forget how lucky i am to be...
