The Queer Witches of Harold’s and Maude’s have a fundraiser called the Spoken Word Porn-a-thon. It’s smutty, silly, and very, very funny. And it raises money for the gays! We’re sure that this show is YET AGAIN going to be full of merriment and laughter. Well. For everyone but Athena.
This year, since it’s happening in July, we’ve decided to FUCK AMERICA… at least a little, anyway. We’ll probably also feature stories about your favorite gay pirates and ghosts, too.
This time, Ringa only writes what they want, cuz this ain’t a democracy, this is a dictatorship – happy July! Our owner will still be reading it aloud live while being very shocked and flustered. She agreed to this, don’t worry. Also, there will be raffle baskets and NSFW drink specials and bomb pops.
this is not a joke. but it will be so funny.
So if you like smut, fanfiction, laughing, being unpatriotic, and giving your money to support queer community building, be sure to get your tickets to the spoken word porn-a-thon. There’s nothing else like it.
But to make sure we cultivate the best atmosphere during this event, please keep these things in mind:
—This is a comedy event. The smut is well written – Ringa is an expert, after all – but we’re reading it for a laugh, not to collectively get our rocks off together. If you find yourself feeling overly aroused, that’s nice. Keep it to yourself.
—Maura, Ringa, and Luke will be on hand to heckle Athena while she is reading so that you don’t have to. In fact, please don’t. We’re sure you’ll have some clever thoughts while Athena is reading, but please keep them to yourself. Please do not interrupt the show. Hooting, hollering, clapping and laughing is excellent, though.
—Consent is Key! While Athena might look really uncomfortable all night long, please remember she was not forced to do any of this. It was, in fact, her idea all along.
Save the date! July 12th!
