dashcon is resurrected
1 august: the strange aeons documentary about dashcon 2 is SO good. i think it's really well-made and the con looks like it was incredibly fun, i wish i could have gone!! i've added her video
to the videos page, would recommend checking it out
i'm about to rewatch it myself, here's hoping it cheers me
up a bit.
framing lesbian fashion
7 july: new addition to the lgbt page — an hour long 1992 documentary all about lesbian fashion: why are we dykes drawn to the styles we are? where did they come from? what purpose do they serve?
through interviews, we see what lesbians in 1992 thought about our styles as a community. the interviews cover a broad group of broads
from
and topics like butchfemme, drag, and conformity. it's really cool to see the different perspectives, and to ponder the changes that have happened in the 30 years since this film was made.
for nudity and sexual behavior.
meme dump #5
2 july: added 10 memes to the memes page! i also removed the folders from there, so the fandom memes are no longer spread out across two pages. there are 2 homestuck memes in this dump and i had to stop myself from adding more.
P.S. has anyone in vancouver rented the "party goose" before? just wondering...
Reefer Madness in Thailand (or: How to Catch Bad Reporting)
Thailand is moving to reverse its historic 2022 decriminalization of cannabis, and I am not pleased with Western reporting on the matter.
27 june music recs
music page has been refreshed! added 7 songs as a little sampler of what i listened to for the last 6 months. i got really into the beatles! i think young people have a specific idea of what the beatles sound like — i know i did — but i did a discography deep dive to appreciate their contributions to pop music and a lot of my assumptions were blown away. i put one of my favorites on the page, and it's one that sounds pretty unexpected. overall, my taste has swung in a pretty mild direction this year. i'm sure i'll branch out again, but it's a lot of new release pop for this update!
june 26: remodel underway!
the urge to blog, or perhaps to Master the Web, has gripped me once again. checked up on this site for the first time in a while and what do you know, the damn thing was totally broken! rest in piece SCMplayer, you will be missed — killed by modern browsers, smh. decided to give it a visual refresh while i'm at it: new background, nav is now at the top and 88x31 buttons are at the bottom.
took the guestbook out for now, but i will (maybe) put a replacement in. (done 28/6!)
lol i didn't do that shit ↓
december 1
happy holidays! the homepage now has snow. in the coming days, i will be "putting up" additional decorations: lights, music, gifs and pngs galore! i'll also be fixing the marquee soon, as it is broken in firefox. i believe there are other ways to get the same animation, but the ones i've found have a weird sense of momentum that makes me feel like i'm using temu. working on it!
What you need to know about Presidential power during a National Emergency
Trump is planning to call a national emergency to start mass deportations. This gives him 136 new powers. Here's what you need to know.
november 22
lots of wedding stuff today. when i ordered my wedding dress a few weeks ago, i accidentally put in the wrong address. as soon as i found out i contacted the business it would be delivered to, and they told me they could accept it and call me...but they didn't accept it! it's supposed to be redelivered to the correct address tomorrow. i also tried to book the venue today (had to wait until 30 days out) and was unable due to a website error. the venue gave me an email address to write to, so i'm waiting on a response. i also emailed six officiants and none of them are available for the date and time. i'm working on it and i'm sure it'll all work out, but what a frustrating morning.
20 november music recs
pop music really had a moment this summer!
not you, tortured poets dept. truthfully brat is a full album rec, but i've chosen some favorites instead of linking a playlist to the whole album. there's also a song from the new poppy album on there, so check it out! leave a message in the chatbox if you want to hear about my 2025 grammy's predictions.
blog update
phew! i haven't updated this site in 9 months! a lot has changed. including the marquee feature being broken on firefox now — will fix that soon.
diary entry
pivoting the format of the projects page to be less "what i'm working on" and more "how i'm doing." today i've added several paragraphs of unedited rambling about job searching, cabin fever, politics, and my serious need for therapy. a little oversharey, but it's my website and i'll cry if i want to.
29 january music recs
added 8 songs to the music recs page! mostly newer releases with a couple older gems mixed in. i've been listening to a lot of female rappers lately -- meg and ice spice made the list, but honorable mentions are flyana boss, flo milli (looking forward to her new album this year!), leikeli47, and coi leray. as for my music exploration, i'm starting to creep out of my post-punk/goth phase to dive into punk and riot grrrl.
january 19
just hopping in to say that i'm not dead and this site is not abandoned! i'm just depressed again lmao. thanks for visiting!

some things i forgot to mention!
there's some stuff in the
video and
art pages that i didn't mention on this homepage when i
added them! go check em out
lgbt history
the lgbt+ page has two new additions! the first is a pdf of the book
The Faggots & Their Friends Between Revolutions, which is a genre-bending mix of fantasy, historical satire, and manifesto.
some of my favorite pages
(using the numbers on the page, not the PDF) are p.21 ♀, p.62 ♕, and p.76 ☮.
he second is
Verzaubert, a 1993 documentary featuring interviews with lgbt people who lived through nazi germany, including some who survived concentration camps.
this former piece of lost media is in german with english closed captioning.
meme dump #3
20 august: weehoo here's 16 cringe ass memes, impact font galore as gvod intended. 4 fandom memes included (gorillaz, mlp:fim, and homestuck)
20 august music rec drop~
added 11 songs from a variety of different years and genres to the music page! there's a fuckin bratz (like the dolls) song on there that i listened to last night and it's such an earworm lmao.
also i'll be adding an SCM music player to this site very very soon with all the music recs built in, plus maybe some extras :3
Quim Magazine
scans of the first two issues of Quim magazine, an erotic magazine "for dykes of all sexual persuasions." it's not all smut! there is a lot of insight into the
minds, sex lives, and political discourse in sapphic communities at the time which i found very very interesting. so little has changed in the last 30+ years...
addition to leftpol
the leftpol page now contains a link to the full text of
Carceral Captialism by Jackie Wang. this is a collection of essays on how the systems
of financial debt, policing, and incarceration work together against black americans to prop up governmental budgets, further concentrate wealth in the hands of the white bourgeoisie,
and fund the continued systematic oppression of black and poor people.
meme dump #2 
04 august: added 10 memes to the memes page, including an unintentionally high proportion of cat memes. hey, what else is the internet for?
all 2014 big sur photos!
in celebration of karlie kloss' birthday, i
koded a page for the gaylor archive with all the big sur instagram pictures! this'll be the last addition
to the gaylor archive for a bit (probably?)
added to the gaylor archive:
a collection of taylor being gay on main for her interviewers
3 interview clips and some discussion around moments where taylor swift got flirty with her female interviewers! includes the "raytay" interview, iykyk
(and iy-DON'T-k, give this page a read!
)
in the works as of 30 july:
revising my "on bisexual lesbianism" essay into something with a wider scale. i want to use it to discuss what it means to identify as or with something,
why we form community around labels, and the value of critical inclusion. i'd like to actually say something worthwhile instead of just sharing my lukewarm take
on niche internet queer discourse.
28 july music rec drop! and a bonus meme!
music recs coming in hot! check out the music page for a vaguely barbie-themed drop that includes two full albums -
The Age of Pleasure by Janelle Monae and
Gabber by
PANIC PARADISE RAVE DEPARTMENT.
2 new writings in the leftpol library
26 july: an oft-cited zine about prison abolition by the anarchist group dysophia (
"what about the rapists?"), and
a detailed crimethinc article about the 2020 uprisings and what we can learn from them (
"Snapshots from the Uprising").
a couple additions to the gaylor archive
25 july: added archived links to a lovely queer reading on
betty and a super extensive gaylor iceberg made by snotty on twitter.
in the coming days: adding quotes from taylor + some of my own lyric analasis.
projects page upd8!
if you want to know what my imminent plans for this site are and get a little insight into what else i'm working on, check out the projects page!
music recs drop #1!
added some songs to the music page!
What is The Heterosexual Contract? an exploration of Wittig's The Straight Mind and related works.
in this essay, i attempt to provide an explanation of the heterosexual contract that is faithful to wittig's original writings, but easier to understand.
i dive into
The Straight Mind and
On the Social Contract and provide legal links to the full texts of those and more!
