REQUESTING SUBMISSIONS OF POETRY, PROSE, AND VISUAL ART FOR A NEW ANTHOLOGY OF QUEER JOY:

Hi! This month, I’m launching my first project for my web production company, Gal Pals Present, and I’m hoping that you’ll help out by posting this request for submissions.

“Dawn with arms full of roses” is an anthology dedicated to queer joy. The name comes from one of Sappho’s fragments, and the project is all about appreciating and honoring the lives of queer folk. The fact is, this world is not safe for queer people. It’s mean, and it’s nasty, and it often doesn’t want us to celebrate ourselves. But our community has always succeeded in finding joy despite, and this anthology is all about spreading that joy.

So please: send me your gushing love poems, your meditations on your own hotness, your unabashed delight. Tell me about the moments where happiness feels impossible, and then tell me about finding it anyway. Send me stories about two girls kissing where no one dies. Your super cheesy sketches? Send them! Your old Star Trek slash fic with the names changed? Send it! Everything will be considered.

Submissions are due July 1st. They should be sent to [email protected]. 1-3 poems. Prose should be no longer than 10 pages. Free author copies will be sent to all those with work in the anthology.

penguinsledding replied to your post “quick hot boss update: she is very touchy-feely when drunk, i heard...”

listen, your door is OPENING. she's single! you're not gonna work for her anymore! if you ask her out and she's not into it, you literally never have to see her again!

hahaha I appreciate the thought I have a girlfriend though whom I love very much

I just like musing about hot boss cause she’s so attractive. but I wouldn’t actually date her

hey! could you please let me know where you downloaded the newest ep of the good place? I'm desperate to watch & afraid to look for it on your blog because I'm avoiding spoilers.

I download torrents from rarbg!

Also, sorry for not tagging my spoilers well, it’s a royal forking pain when I’m blogging from my mobile device.

penguinsledding replied to your post “Are you a Gold Star lesbian? (Just in case you don't know what it...”

I got this exact same ask and got the exact same feeling from it

glad it wasn’t just me (the feeling and the ask lmao)

Hi! I'm contacting you to see if you'd be interested in submitting artwork to my print anthology of queer joy. We all know that this world is not safe for queer people. It’s mean, and it’s nasty, and it often doesn’t want us to celebrate ourselves. But our community has always succeeded in finding joy despite, and this anthology is all about spreading that joy. I love your pieces, and I think they could be a perfect fit for this project. Check out my blog for more info about submissions!

Ooh, I hope you like some of them! Most of the ones you probably haven’t heard of are about queer girls tbh lol.

penguinsledding said: what bothers me about paul is that his weird & ineffective obsessing over echo is represented as heroism. he’s seen as one of the heroes who “liberates” the dollhouse even though he is a creep and echo is doing like. all the work.

ooh, yeah, also that. I haven’t really thought actively about Paul as a character in so long that I wasn’t able to articulate that, but thank you!

re: an older question about whether centipeedle's gem is likely to be nephrite jade— I think it's worth noting that nephrite is a gem associated with dreams & healing. the most common theory right now is that steven's going to eventually use his dream&healing powers to heal corrupted gems. if the theory is true and the crew is taking gem meanings into account, nephrite would be the perfect pick for centipeedle (who will likely be the first corrupted gem that steven heals)

So uh, I’m probably gonna openly sob over such a plotline
