Relics of Unbearable Softness is a collection radiating from queer joy. It is a celebration of our endurance and our love for every single one of us. This is a tribute to the soft, safe place of joy we were made to exist within. Embrace queer joy with us.
She moves like the tides / and her smile is a river in the sun. God was in that coffee shop rivering, / sunning each person.-I Found God I Think She Might Be Queer, Becca Downs we talk about getting matching disco ball tattoos to bask in the rainbow shards of joy we've shared
