happy october, qweirdos! we're kicking it off with some wild ideas from a wild woman! valerie solanas was a bold and brash butch who had a rough ride in life. she was an artist, a wanderer that desperately wanted to leave a mark on the world. and when she shot andy warhol she opened the world's eyes to her solo revolution. valerie was scum. be queer & stay weird! xox - NY

being butch/femme can be a label, a performance, an identity, or a mix of any & all. that's what's so fun about queer folx, we play. we play with gender, we play with labels and identity, and even though everyone performs gender (or no gender), queer folx have the most fun. be queer & stay weird! xox - ny

artists are people just like us, but their brilliance can make them seem brighter & shinier than any ordinary penny. we fall in love with their art, and sometimes we project it onto them. problem is, people are problematic, and since artists are people too their problematicization (made up word) can break our hearts. can we enjoy their art knowing they're a predator? can you take the artist out of the art? be queer & stay weird! xox - NY

Celebs - is this one queer? What about them? Or her? Or them? I mean, look at all the clues they're dropping! We're getting into speculation, but we're not speculating. We wouldn't disappoint you like that. We're talking about whether it's harmful to speculate on a celeb's love life, or is it homophobic to think that speculation is harmful?
