A holiday message from all of us to all of you. ❄️

And now for something completely different: if you’re playing Salmon Run in Splatoon 3, use your goddamn specials. There’s no bonus points for saving them. #splatoon3 #gamerproblems

In memory of Carl Sagan, who left us 29 years ago today, The Pale Blue Dot. A good reminder to recenter one's perspective.

If you see this, we IMPLORE you to post a picture from whatever device you’re using without explanation.

My Christmas tree! Can you spot the @qtlibrary.org ornament I 3D printed myself? (If you want one, send me a DM!)

🌱 Today is the FINAL DAY of our annual campaign! If you can give, your support will help us achieve our dream to — drumroll, please — open a pop-up in summer 2026! YOU can join us in making our dream an on-the-ground reality. #BookSky, let's see if we can get to $25K! https://loom.ly/mQH2k_0

It’s past time to ditch Facebook, Insta, and WhatsApp. I know many of you are in the choir already as I preach this (seeing as you’re here), but beyond allowing hate speech against us to go unchallenged, Meta now shadowbans or outright shut down accounts that share our histories and our stories.

"When someone reads a book and sees a character who looks like them, loves like them, and lives a full vibrant life, that isn't just entertainment — it is permission. It is a mirror that says, "You are real, you have a lineage, and you belong here." 👏👏 ~ QT Library board member Jen Sarduy

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

Even though I can’t make it, Boston folks should go hang with some of the coolest and kindest people I know — the @qtlibrary.org is having an end of year celebration at More Than Words. I’m sorry to my fellow QTs that I will miss it!

Perhaps someone should remind @gavinnewsom.bsky.social that taxing the rich is probably preferable to him than beheading them. People have had enough.

Um, Pantone, I think it’s a little tone deaf for the color of 2026 to be white. (It’s technically “Cloud Dancer”, but really Pantone?) #pantone #coloroftheyear #whyitgottabewhite

My last call for Giving Tuesday! I've been volunteering with @qtlibrary.org for a year+ now; it's been fun and so rewarding. Help us open a substance-free multigenerational queer space in Boston to share queer joy, history, and community. It would mean the world to me. Thanks if you already have! 🌈📚

We’ve seen what happens when our government doesn’t care about those with HIV/AIDS. Some of us lived through it. Never again. #worldaidsday

It’s officially happening! I’ll be leading a table in some garden-themed games. Here’s some of the beautiful art from Mycelia, a game all about cultivating and identifying mushrooms. 🍄 🍄‍🟫 🎲 Join for games, some QT company, and maybe even get the library (or yourself) a book while you’re there!

Hey @cityofsomerville.bsky.social, any idea when we will have water again?

As we countdown to our end of year party, we fondly remember all the love we experienced at our celebration last year. ❄️ Games, crafts, a raffle, and great vibes really helped carry us through 2025 💜 RSVP to our Shelf-ebration this year and make more memories! https://loom.ly/wTnRbac

I'm going to be helping run a plant-themed game night for @qtlibrary.org at Pandemonium in Cambridge for our "From Seed to Shelf" fundraiser on December 13. Possible games include Photosynthesis, Takenoko, Verdant, Botany, and Genotype. (Who doesn't love a game about Mendelian genetics?) Come join!

Battle at the gates of Gauntlgrym! With a mixture of 3D terrain both premade and printed by me! #dnd

Maybe one of our founder’s #FCF post can get your attention… it’s for a good cause!

The library I volunteer with is having an end of year celebration. Sadly I can’t make it, but you should check it out!

TIL that adding the 🌈📚 emojis to a post gets me in front of the Queer Bookworms. hello Queer Bookworms. it's me, a Queer Bookworm. i want you to know that i'm (with over 100 incredible volunteers) building you a queer & trans library called the @qtlibrary.org. i hope you love it as much as i do!!!

My current reading. Highly recommended in these times. Thanks @qtlibrary.org!

Tickets to #PAXEast acquired. Woot woot!

Here’s the whole sad, sordid history of someone I once revered as a queer icon’s descent into TERF-dom. So much for “completely bowing out of this conversation.” You can join the pile with Morrissey and J.K.: art once very dear to me that is now forever marred by the artist’s ugliness.

Vote, baby, vote!

I don’t know why I’ve had a sudden urge to pull out my old Chumbawamba records lately (and no, I don’t mean Tubthumping).

The @qtlibrary.org is continuing our end-of-year campaign, “From Seed to Shelf” — any amount, large or small, will help us reach our $100,000 goal. And if you want to help in other ways, spread the word or reach out to me for ways you can volunteer!

My #beholder jack-o-lantern. #dnd #imadethis

Thank you for all the music, Dave Ball.

Without downloading anything where are you mentally right now?

If the federal government is going to continue illegally withholding funds, I think it’s time the blue states stop paying federal taxes. You won’t give us our allocated funds? Fine. We’ll just keep our own, thank you. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

I think I just found a new time sink. I mean, I’ve made my own fictional subway maps before, and now to do it with actual population data? I can’t wait to try it out! #subwaybuilder

Hey @fenwayhealth.bsky.social, I know you’re in a tough position federal funding–wise, but ending gender-affirming care for trans youth can’t be the only solution. www.wbur.org/news/2025/10...

The QT Library (where I volunteer) has just kicked off our annual campaign. You can help in many ways: donating, volunteering, spreading the word, coming to events... If you have questions, I'm happy to answer! (And stay tuned for more — I have something up my sleeve for later in the campaign!)

Check out this author talk to hear about the new generation of queer leaders. It’s online, so you can do it from the comfort of your own home!

I’m reading a book about supermassive black holes but I can’t handle the gravity of it.

If you want to know what we want from our Democratic politicians, this is a good place to start looking: youtu.be/bEvVSpN0BXg?...

Check out this panel on queer book bans and how we can fight back. I’m super bummed I can’t attend, but folks from the library I volunteer for will be part of the panel!

We have 3,000~ books to recommend, but what would you have the LQBTQIA+ community enjoy?

Underworld, Hollywood Palladium. The show was amazing.

Waiting in the Lawrence Welk room in the Hollywood Palladium for Underworld to go on!

Spritzes and meze at the Getty!

FUN FACT: It takes a lot of space to store around 2,500 books. 🫠 We quickly outgrew our current storage space for our LGBTQIA+ book collection. Thankfully, we were able to find a much bigger space just down the hall! Now we can admire the potential of our little library! 😍

Anniversary dinner with @rpasserini.bsky.social! 20 years married and 30 together. Here’s to 30 more.

This says less about the quality of service in Boston and more about the sad state of public transit in the US in general. (Then again, right now it’s “the sad state of [fill in the blank] in the US”.) www.nbcboston.com/news/local/n...

I just turned into dust.

let’s see those face cards, babes 🥺

Grabbing a bite at Tatte. Nice.
