Qing wears a white dress shirt and a bow tie is around his neck. A brown blazer is draped around his shoulders, and has a crown pin. He stands in front of a gold curtain with the following quote: Drag doesn’t have to be onstage. It doesn’t have to be lip-syncing. It doesn’t have to be anything
 People can try [it] on and figure out what it means for themselves. -Qing Blaze

Honestly it’s a dream to feature .butch đŸ„č😍 with an interview and drag videos, please check it out in our latest issue.

Over a gold curtain is a quote next to a portrait of Rose. Rose is in white face paint with red glistening lips, blue eye and red hearts on their cheeks, a black beret, a red tie around their neck, and a black and white striped shirt with a boat neck. They wear their hair short and curly. The quote says: Getting to play within gender in the expansiveness of drag is helping me follow that pursuit of gender euphoria and it is such a pleasure and joy to be able to share that with other people. -Rose Butch.

Happy full moon in Virgo, babes! Certainly, your dandy in charge, with a Virgo sun and four other placements in Virgo, loves a Virgo moon, as well as our brand new co-captain with their Virgo rising! But this Virgo moon is communicating with Saturn (which I also have in Virgo) as well as Mercury (which our brand new first mate, has in Virgo). So we decided to celebrate our brand new issue by timing our launch at the moon’s peak!

We are also so so so thrilled to share our first ever photo cover, shot by the wondrous .bex, featuring sizzling draglesque performer . Moving forward, our covers will be graced by q***r artists and it’s our goal to have those covers shot and designed by q***r artists as well. We also have for you a lipstickle by , a featured interview with Auntie and drag thing .butch and so much more! Happy Saturday, and happy moon, everyone!

It’s our birthday week! Three years and five issues later, I can’t believe this dream is still alive and kicking! We are a lit and arts magazine that centers LGBTQIA+ fashion. We insist on accessibility, paying our artists, uplifting marginalized voices both in our editorial team and our contributors, and contributing to dismantling the barriers around publishing as much as possible. We wholly subsist on grants, which means most of our grand funds go to our writers. We have some very exciting things in the works, so could you please help us fund our DIY printing gadgets, as well as other needs such as continuing to pay our writers and editors and designers, and other needs? We will love you anyway, but even a little more. 😘

09/11/2023

We want to make it abundantly clear that just femme & dandy stands with Palestine and Palestinian resistance. We are devastated and enraged to see apathetic responses and propaganda from world leaders and the media to the genocide of Palestinians, as well as lit mags, orgs, and our larger community. This is not a “complicated conflict.” This moment is an escalation of a 75 year ongoing occupation. Recent uprisings are a reaction to decades of colonization, displacement, oppression, apartheid, and ethnic cleansing. To condemn or equate Palestinian resistance to the violence of their oppressor is to paint this as a balanced conflict, which obscures the asymmetric war taking place and dehumanizes believers in armed resistance as a path to collective liberation. It is clear this is no longer about Hamas. Israel is collectively punishing the Palestinian people to further their settler colonial agenda. It is not antisemitic to oppose Zionism, but rather it is antisemitic to conflate Zionism with Judaism. There are many Jewish people who oppose the Israeli state. Israel is involved in oppression internationally, including an exchange program with Atlanta PD to train at Cop City. We firmly believe that all oppressions are interconnected, and so our resistance must be as well. Solidarity is necessary to free Palestine. We demand an immediate ceasefire and hope to see humanitarian aid reach Gaza. In the long run, we firmly support the decolonization of Palestine and an end to Israeli occupation. We in the q***r community are all too familiar with the notion that silence = death. To be neutral is to be complicit.
