Signal boost: a new Dreamwidth Community: [community profile] queerly_beloved

[community profile] queerly_beloved is a new community on Dreamwidth dedicated to members of the LGBTQ+ community that are often excluded from mainstream discussions -- the marginalized sexual and gender identities, and intersectional identities including those wrapped up with disability and race.

It started because of exclusionary gatekeeping over on Tumblr. But, regardless of that, I still think Dreamwidth is the best place for such a community because it's an organization free of advertising and the pressure to appease said advertisers -- unlike YouTube, for example, which has been known to bury and demonetize content such as this.

Just thought I'd let you guys know...

(and yes, in other news: I've fallen off from my New Year's Resolution to write a drabble everyday; I hit a longish stretch of insomnia in February, and that broke what stride I had. But I'm thinking of ways I can make a more sustainable goal, in the long run, such as: allowing myself to repeat myself, and/or allowing myself to write nonfiction, or maybe cut down on the amount -- like, say, four drabbles a week instead of seven)
