This year for #PrideMonth I wanted to challenge myself to read all of the letters in the Pride spectrum (well the most common at least - LGBTQAI)

I found that Intersex, Asexual, and Queer were the most difficult books to find.

Q- while queer is often used as a catchall category I was really looking for authors who specifically called themselves Queer, and it turned out harder then I had first thought.

These are the books I read.

willaful When I was looking a few years ago, I had the hardest time finding a book with an intersex character that wasn't absolutely horrific. Finally found Pantomime by Laura Lam, which is a very good read. 4d

Trans punk rock singer-guitarist Laura Jane Grace dropped a new single, “Wearing Black.“ Grace is notable for being one of the first highly visible punk rock musicians to publicly come out as transgender, which she did in May 2012.

The video is borderline NSFW, but I couldn't help thinking while watching, “I bet this is what conservatives picture every pride events looks like“ 🤣🤣🤣

TieDyeDude Our local pride event postings, especially the all-ages ones, are constantly spammed with comments like “Groomers“ and “Kids shouldn't be exposed to this,“ but when I ask, none of them actually explain what they think goes on. (edited) 2w
ChaoticMissAdventures I adore Laura Jane Grace!! The only good thing I got out of one of my ex's was an intro to her 😂 2w
willaful My daughter went to one of her shows recently! I was kind of amused because I'd never seen her or heard any of her music but I read her book. 😂 2w

Raymond Burr was gay? This makes the fourth Gay Hunk that I've crushed on 😂🤔, I blame those stunning eyes of his.

How have I been a fan for so long and not known about this fact?

I found it tragic that Burr had to hide his relationship with his partner, of 35+ years, Robert Benevides.

As a Perry Mason fan, I want to publicly post a toast to the actor who made the Perry Mason character a Hollywood legend and the one who was his partner.

👇

AnnCrystal Raymond Burr and Robert Benevides, may you two have reunited in the hereafter and discovered that your love for each other remains alive. May the two of you forevermore be happy together.

I hope to one day visit the vineyard you began as a couple, and (even though I don't drink) properly sip a toast to you both with Raymond Burr wine.

Alway a fan 🥂💝.

AnnCrystal @kspenmoll 👏🏼🥳📺💝. Love that. I introduced Perry Mason to my mom, we both just love his show no matter how many times we've watched each episode before 📺💝. 4w
AnnCrystal @dabbe Truly. I found it tragic that he had to lie and make up stories about his personal life.

He gifted us with his incredible acting talent 🏆🎭 and I can't believe how he would have been lost to Hollywood if people had known back then.

Family, trauma and grief are the main themes of this book about four sisters. An interesting look at how being raised in the same home is experienced in a different way but each sibling. Good writing and interesting characters make this an engaging read.
