“Queer' not as being about who you're having sex with (that can be a dimension of it); but 'queer' as being about the self that is at odds with everything around it and that has to invent and create and find a place to speak and to thrive and to live.”

Physicists clock the speed of light at 9,460,730,472,580.8 km/yr (fast!), yet light from the bright stars we see in #space still takes an extraordinarily long time to reach us.

---

After #Katrina devastated the parish, many residents didn’t receive enough money from the state to rebuild. Nearly half made the difficult decision to start over somewhere else.
