April Showers Make Way For Much Needed Flowers
This blog and the work we do is supported by my SSDI check, a few ads, and mostly – you. You subscribe, you share, and you invest. A week ago was my SSDI check date – they divide us by birthrates into the first, second, third, etc week of the month. While watching Rachel Maddow […]
This Pittsburgh Pet Food Pantry Running Out of Cat Food
50 households caring for 650 cats. That’s how many folx are enrolled in The John P. Ruffing VMD Memorial Pet Food Pantry. And we do not have enough food to distribute for November. Obviously we don’t try to feed all 650 cats, but we do try to give something to each household. They are colony […]
Countdown to the #BackYardSale: Go Back To Bed!
Next on our list of items for (back)YardSale to benefit #PghCatFolx are cat beds. A bed is a very personal item to pass along. I find it very hard. But important. Lots of sizes and styles, some modeled here. Beds can be especially comfy for sick or injured cats, litters of foster kittens, aging animals, […]
Watch The Video Interview Where Burgh Vivant Magazine Asked Me if I Was a Lady or a Dame
The lovely folx at Autostraddle dug up archival footage I had almost forgotten. This is the semi-regular post where I ask you for money to support this work.

Donors keep the interesting stuff happening. How I Waded In To The Pond of Promotion So I set up my own Patreon. Immediately hit a wall. […]

This is How Your Benevolence Keeps Us In Business
It has been a challenging six months for the blog and this blogger. We just started our 19th year of blogging in December.

Celebrating 18 Years of Blogging at Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents
As I have said, on Friday, December 29, we celebrated a huge milestone – 18 years of blogging and the start of our 19th year of blogging. What does that look like? 6,140 blog posts – I published them, but I didn’t write them all. 330+ posts were created by the #AMPLIFY contributors. That’s 341 […]
The Chilly Return of the Steel City Snowflakes
They are back … Why Steel City Snowflakes? I’m proud to be a snowflake. It certainly doesn’t feel like a slur. Snowflakes are sturdy, powerful, and flexible. They change form. And as a cluster, they can shut down anything. How Does It Work? In 2020, we created the Steel City Snowflakes project. The dedicated web page on […]
