Friends, hello, and welcome to 2022 and your first Pop Culture Fix of the year!
+ Here’s a rumor I love and want to believe so badly! Okoye will have a girlfriend in Black Panther 2??
+ Here’s another good rumor: Florence Pugh and Hailee Steinfeld will maybe team up for Black Widow 2???
+ And a final MCU rumor for the day is that Valkyrie’s gonna be in The Marvels.
+ All of this information led Carmen and I into our classic scuffle wherein I ship Maria Rambeau and Carol Danvers for life, and Carmen wants to see Carol hook up with Valkyrie. There’s no link to this bullet point, I just wanted to, once again, MAKE MY SHIP STANCE KNOWN.
+ Gentleman Jack is on its way back!
+ This is the last time I’m mentioning Miranda Lambert’s “gay anthem,” Y’all Means All, I swear, but here is the final song.
+ The 13 queerest moments in Yellowjackets so far.
+ Niecy Nash on playing a “strip mall superhero.”
+ Vogue has just launched a new column called I Want What They Have about celebrity couples that give them hope for their romantic futures. First up, Emma Specter on Sue Bird and Megan Rapinoe.
+ Over at NYT, Beandrea July is doing a spotlight of Pariah at 10 (years old, not o’clock).
+ Another day, another gay on Freeform.
It's hard to be a person. I felt that.

+ Sailor Moon’s birthday was over the long holiday weekend, and Vulture retweeted one of their all-time best lists: Every Sailor Moon Weapon, Ranked by Emotional Carnage
Yes Heather! Carol +Maria 4Eva.
I thought Okoye and W’Kabi were married. Am I wrong? Did he die in Endgame?
W’kabi sort of sided with Killmonger and the whole have Wakanda spark a global war plan, and betrayed T’Challa, and when Okoye demanded he order his troops to stop trying to kill them all, he tried to set a rhino on her.
Which is an admittedly unique, but nevertheless very valid, grounds for divorce.
okay i’m a hardcore comics!Amerikate shipper but between the chemistry they had in Hawkeye and the rumors that MCU america chavez is going to be a teen, i could easily be persuaded to get on the kate/yelena train
Xochitl Gomez is 15 right now,turning 16 next year, so I don’t think they can or should pair America Chavez up with Kate Bishop.
Valkyrie and Lady Sif for King and Queen of Asgard.
I thought Maria and Carol were a thing? They were not?!
They were just gals, being pals. Living together. Raising a kid together. You know, like gals who are pals do.
Let’s not forget America Chavez in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness!
I am really torn about America Chavez. I love her character in the comics and I like Xochitl Gomez, but I don’t know why they made her both younger and more light-skinned than in the comics and right now I can’t thing of a reason to make that make sense, so I am very skeptical.
