This is a show about individual experience and personal identity.

There may be times when folks use identifying words or phrases that don't feel right to you.

That's part of what we're exploring here.

Please listen with an open heart, and as always, I welcome your polite, engaged feedback,

and I encourage you to continue the conversation in your own life and with your own community.

Welcome to Query.

Hey Query Rose, Cammy here.

Oof, I am excited because we very recently launched the Hey Query Rose

Hatreon. That's patreon.com slash Hey Query Rose, where you can

become a patron of this very show by subscribing to our listener feedback podcast.

What do you mean? Well, there's a number you call or you can send in MP3.

Give us your first name. Tell us how you're doing. Ask me a question.

I'm going to thread all of them together. Well, I'm not going to do it. Sierra is going to do it.

And we're going to send them out to you. There are other perks if you join at a different level of patronage.

Go to patreon.com slash Hey Query Rose, and you can find out all the information

about how to support this show via patreon. We're really excited about this.

A bunch of you already have, and I'm so grateful.

Also, today on the show, Casper Turquil. Casper is a host of the podcast

Harry Potter and the Sacred Text. We talk a little bit about separating fandom and the

nastiness that is JK Rowling. But we mostly talk about Casper's book, The Power of Ritual,

and Ritual in Casper's own life. I love this conversation. And I hope that you

become a patron of this very show. And also enjoy this episode.
