Leah on the Offbeat | Becky Albertalli

Working from my homo away from home, my local Equality Community Center. It‘s bittersweet, as I‘ll be taking time off from ALL of my volunteer work in order to attend Mount Holyoke, which I‘m doing primarily so I can come back to the work with more tools and resources. So grateful for those who will keep the fight going here at home, on both the individual and organizational levels. #queerspaces #queervoices #queerbooks

saresmoore I‘m weirdly excited to follow your Mt. Holyoke adventure! It will be worth it, no doubt. 7y

kgriffith @saresmoore Haha, aww, thanks! I‘ll try to keep the posts interesting ;) 7y

bookishkai Somehow I missed this, but whoo hoo for MHC! Will you be an FP? I‘m class of ‘99, so holler at me if you have questions (though SO much has changed since I was on campus last). 7y

kgriffith @bookishkris Yep! Scholarship kid here. Could have knocked me over with a feather when I got my letter 😋 Thanks for the offer! The network of alumni from MHC and the Five Colleges is part of what I‘m most excited about — such a great resource for getting shit done in the world. 7y

Gender Outlaws: The Next Generation | Kate Bornstein, S. Bear Bergman

And apparently also post to Litsy bc I‘m extra mad about it. I love these deep conversations about hard times and hurts and low-key self-protection from trauma, and also hate that my people are so good at it. #queervoices #queerbooks #queerlives #queerlove
