We’re building a queer-oriented dating site made for fat, disabled, and older folks - a safer, more welcoming space to build real connections.We are already fostering a strong sense of community through monthly get-togethers. In the future we will be featuring more events, including speed dating and educational workshops.Our website will include a free community forum section and a subscription-based dating profiles section with a wide range of body type, relationship type, gender identity, and sexual orientation options. Our site will also have features for disability accommodation (e.g., screen-reader compatibility, simplified navigation).Your safety is a high-priority. We’ll be using 3rd party reverse image search to protect from fake dating profiles, secure servers and plug-ins to protect from data theft and we will absolutely never sell your data.

Book & Podcast Club
📚 Book: Parable of the Sower, Octavia’s Parables📆 1st Wednesday of every month
5:30pm - 7:00pm PST📍 Where: RSVP HERE to receive the zoom link📖 Book: Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler🎧 Podcast: Octavia’s Parables by Toshi Reagon & adrienne maree brown💡 How It Works: We’ll read one chapter a month, listen to the corresponding podcast episode, and talk about each chapter in our monthly group.❓ Why: The book offers insights into resisting authoritarianism while presenting strategies for adapting to societal collapse and rebuilding a resilient future. At least I think it does. Although I saw the opera by Toshi & Bernice Reagan, which was transcendent, I haven't been able to get through the book alone. Please come and read it in community with mutual support!
