The last time I felt this seen, it was 1992 and I was standing in Lambda Rising in Dupont Circle reading a DTWOF strip in the Washington Blade for the first time. So brilliant and funny and the art is always my favorite. It has everything. Go get @alisonbechdel.bsky.social’s SPENT.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Oh look here I am not long ago at Union Station in Washington DC near midnight waiting on my daughter’s train and enjoying the beauty of the main hall. How did I survive without armed military personnel surrounding the place? 🙄🤬

Highly recommend this stunner of a YA graphic novel about family and legends and secrets by @taraocomics.bsky.social! I read it in the dark in one sitting, and I couldn’t move until I finished. Tara’s art astounds me. It releases Sept 16th and is available for pre-order now. A JLG Selection. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Up with the sun, heading to Georgia for the weekend, and I brought the perfect read! Out this week, the much-anticipated sequel HOLLOW: THE WOMAN IN WHITE, words by @shanito.bsky.social
#brandenboyerwhite, illustrated by #BereniceNelle. The first book was so fierce and fun, I can’t wait. 🔥

Despite appearances, I did not grow up in the Dust Bowl, but I did start loving hats from the ripe old age of two. Some of my experiences growing up are in MAC WEARS A HAT, some good, some challenging. I hope you enjoy this heartfelt and joyful story. ❤️🎩📚

I was nervous to receive an alert re #MollysTuxedo featured in a sermon, then pleasantly surprised by the support from Rev. Canon Greene at Grace Cathedral in SF. In these trying times, thank you for a wonderful message. #littlebeebooks @glaad.bsky.social
