1. I don’t have a uvula in my mouth.
2. My first car was a brown 1972 Oldsmobile that was so big there were only two spaces that it would fit in near my high school. I woke up extra early to get one of those spots!
3. The only trophy I ever won was for catching the most fish with a bamboo rod when I was 8 y.o.
4. In sleepaway camp, I won a certificate for sleepwalking. I was 10 years old and had the top bunk!

QUEER NEWS THAT’LL MAKE YOU SMILE
It can seem sometimes like all the news these days is bad. We won’t deny there’s a lot of troubling things going on, including a rise in hate crimes. But it’s not all terrible out there! We want to do our best to highlight good news, because while it may seem like the world is filled with hate, there are many individuals who are living their best lives with a rainbow in their heart.
This week’s good news involves Columbia, Missouri.
The Columbia, Missouri City Council voted 6-1 to designate the city as a sanctuary for LGBTQ+ individuals.
According to the ordinance, “The City Council affirms that being LGBTQ is not a disorder, disease, illness, deficiency or shortcoming and commits to finding ways to improve social outcomes for LGBTQ Columbians.”
We applaud Columbia, Missouri and we hope this action spreads to other cities.
