Are you sick of mind-numbing, capitalist, consumer dating life? You’re not alone! Queers have been plotting their escape from society for decades–and they’re posting personal ads looking for just the right person to share it with. So,

throw on your prairie dress, get back to the land, and throw open those cottage windows (stained glass, of course) –because Haley of Q4Q meets Abbey of Sweet Baby Gay for a quaint, cottagecore themed episode!

Do you want to hear more from Abbey? Follow their podcast on Instagram @sweetbabygaypod and listen to more of their episodes here.
