I may not be a Pisces, but there’s something about being around water that puts my mind at ease. As someone who grew up in Kansas — pretty much the most land-locked state in the entire United States — it’s possible I love the water because I never had much access to it. But it

Like other eco-conscious consumers, I try to buy secondhand often but, tragically, I lack the patience and keen eye necessary to really excel at thrifting.

Religion classes often promoted shame, specifically around sexual freedom or queer identity, and other students took up that torch, ready to
