3. I liked both of these poems from the recent issue of Poetry: Mary Biddinger's "Book of Disclosures" and Spencer Short's "The Gentle Art of Shabby Dressing." See also their Pride feature on the queer desire of Amy Lowell.
4. Jezebel posts clickbait of "Actors who are bad at acting." Critic Kayleigh Donaldson ripostes at length. "If you genuinely think Kristen Stewart is a bad actor, you're beyond help.

5. Dr. Lauren MacIvor Thompson performs a similar service on the claim that nineteenth-century abortion providers did not advertise in newspapers. I hope it helps someone out with their fic research.
6. The National LGBTQ Task Force on the D.C. Dyke March.
