The incredible @deanne_smith is headlining a queer comedy show at @buddiesto TOMORROW, and we already know it’s going to be a blast.

Expect a diverse lineup of queer comedians, drag Queen improv, and more laugh-out-loud comedy that will raise your spirits as you celebrate #PrideMonth. 🌈

Take it from DeAnne: “If you’ve never been to a comedy show at Buddies, you should definitely check it out. Your face will hurt from how much fun you had.”

We caught up with DeAnne to hear more about their comedy journey, how they plan to celebrate Pride, and why uplifting queer comedians is so important right now.

🔗 Link in our bio for more of their insightful and hilarious wisdom.

As we celebrate National Indigenous History Month

As we celebrate National Indigenous History Month this June, our Books Editor @ameemabackwards put together a list of must-read titles from Indigenous authors, highlighting their literary contributions across a variety of genres and styles.

There’s atmospheric horror for lovers of tense and chilling stories; there’s fantasy and romance for those who love a little escapism; there’s incredibly well-researched nonfiction on history and social and cultural issues for those who love to learn; there are powerful literary works, memoirs and heartfelt coming-of-age stories.

Have you read any of these incredible books already? See the full list at the link in our bio.

📚”Writing this book was the first time in my

📚”Writing this book was the first time in my entire life I’ve been able to completely ‘unmask’ as an adult. Once I knew that Cassie was going to be autistic, like me, the only way I could possibly do that with any authenticity was to write my own experience as truthfully as possible, which meant allowing my brain to do exactly what it wanted to do. So I just… let go. I allowed myself to just be on the page, without shame and without hiding. I let Cassie have my weird behaviours, my strange way of speaking, my obsessions and emotions and random metaphors and repetitive habits that I tend to hide so that I’m more ‘likeable’. I let her see the world as I see it.” - @holsmale 💕✨

‘Cassandra in Reverse’ is the current @reesesbookclub pick, and @shedoesthecity Books Editor @readwithmeemz sat down to chat with British writer @holsmale to discuss her incredible new book—out today!
.
Tap link in bio to read the full interview. Oh, and if you’re wondering why @holsmale is holding two different covers, the book is titled ‘The Cassandra Complex’ in the UK and ‘Cassandra in Reverse’ in North America. We always find cover art and these marketing choices interesting. Anyway, read the interview! @holsmale’s perspective is fascinating, and what she has to share will likely resonate with those of you who’ve discovered things about yourself, like autism or ADHD, in your adult life.
