And now for something completely different: if you’re playing Salmon Run in Splatoon 3, use your goddamn specials. There’s no bonus points for saving them. #splatoon3 #gamerproblems

In memory of Carl Sagan, who left us 29 years ago today, The Pale Blue Dot. A good reminder to recenter one's perspective.

My Christmas tree! Can you spot the @qtlibrary.org ornament I 3D printed myself? (If you want one, send me a DM!)

🌱 Today is the FINAL DAY of our annual campaign! If you can give, your support will help us achieve our dream to — drumroll, please — open a pop-up in summer 2026! YOU can join us in making our dream an on-the-ground reality.

#BookSky, let's see if we can get to $25K! https://loom.ly/mQH2k_0

It’s past time to ditch Facebook, Insta, and WhatsApp. I know many of you are in the choir already as I preach this (seeing as you’re here), but beyond allowing hate speech against us to go unchallenged, Meta now shadowbans or outright shut down accounts that share our histories and our stories.
Meta shuts down global accounts linked to abortion advice and queer content
More than 50 organisations report sites being restricted or removed, with abortion hotlines blocked and posts showing non-explicit nudity triggering warnings

"When someone reads a book and sees a character who looks like them, loves like them, and lives a full vibrant life, that isn't just entertainment — it is permission. It is a mirror that says, "You are real, you have a lineage, and you belong here." 👏👏

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

Even though I can’t make it, Boston folks should go hang with some of the coolest and kindest people I know — the @qtlibrary.org is having an end of year celebration at More Than Words. I’m sorry to my fellow QTs that I will miss it!
HEY BOSTON LGBTQS (that's at least 3 of you) – come hang out with me TODAY and eat free snacks and meet other Boston LGBTQTs from 3 – 6 PM at More Than Words Bookstore!!! We're doing a takeover and celebrating the @qtlibrary.org!!!

Perhaps someone should remind @gavinnewsom.bsky.social that taxing the rich is probably preferable to him than beheading them. People have had enough.
Gov. @gavinnewsom says he disagrees with Mayor @zohrankmamdani about the need for a wealth tax on billionaires, which he is “adamantly against” - says Dems are a “big tent party” with both views.

Um, Pantone, I think it’s a little tone deaf for the color of 2026 to be white. (It’s technically “Cloud Dancer”, but really Pantone?) #pantone #coloroftheyear #whyitgottabewhite

My last call for Giving Tuesday! I've been volunteering with @qtlibrary.org for a year+ now; it's been fun and so rewarding. Help us open a substance-free multigenerational queer space in Boston to share queer joy, history, and community. It would mean the world to me. Thanks if you already have! 🌈📚

We’ve seen what happens when our government doesn’t care about those with HIV/AIDS. Some of us lived through it. Never again. #worldaidsday

It’s officially happening! I’ll be leading a table in some garden-themed games. Here’s some of the beautiful art from Mycelia, a game all about cultivating and identifying mushrooms. 🍄 🍄‍🟫 🎲

Join for games, some QT company, and maybe even get the library (or yourself) a book while you’re there!

As we countdown to our end of year party, we fondly remember all the love we experienced at our celebration last year. ❄️

Games, crafts, a raffle, and great vibes really helped carry us through 2025 💜

I'm going to be helping run a plant-themed game night for @qtlibrary.org at Pandemonium in Cambridge for our "From Seed to Shelf" fundraiser on December 13. Possible games include Photosynthesis, Takenoko, Verdant, Botany, and Genotype. (Who doesn't love a game about Mendelian genetics?) Come join!
From Seed to Shelf: Game Night!
Join the QT Library at Pandemonium Books & Games for a fun night filled of plant and greenery-themed games!

Maybe one of our founder’s #FCF post can get your attention… it’s for a good cause!
Happy #FCF! (Fund the Collection Friday)

(We're building a gay library and we need donations of every size to finish and house our collection of 5,000 gay books.)

(If enough of y'all donate, I'll...)

The library I volunteer with is having an end of year celebration. Sadly I can’t make it, but you should check it out!
It's been quite the year, and through it all, the QT Library has survived and thrived. We all are still here!

That's why we're still celebrating 2025. 🥳 Join us at More Than Words in Boston for a great afternoon of games, vibes, friends, and raffles! RSVP 👉 https://loom.ly/wTnRbac
