No Filter: Janelle Monáe Posts for “Flysexuals Who Love Tubs Only”

Hello and welcome to No Filter! This is the place where I gather all the best queer Instagram content for your viewing! Lucky you!


Remember when Paper Magazine told us Kim Kardashian broke the internet? They lied, Melissa King broke the internet when she put on this perfect suit and those glasses and then had the absolute gall to look at me like that. Damn.


Stars are just like us! They also take increasingly silly photos with their cats on their couches!


“Flysexuals who love tubs only” is not a way I personally identify (too tall for tubs!) but I imagine there are many of you who feel seen by this caption.


THIS! BLAZER!


The powerful lesbian energy simply radiating from this photo is overwhelming, I feel faint but also stronger.


Honestly, if this is what being unholy entails, I am fine with a life of sin!


!!!!! This 80s!!!!!! Fit!!!!!


I wish I was a different person, one who was able to concentrate on things like: how cute those dogs are, how great Cara’s eyebrows look, but alas, I am not. I am a woman whose eye was drawn like a moth to flame to the font Cara chose to put on this video! What a choice!


These two are literally dedicated to ruining my life, I cannot live with this kind of targeted Mom content, I am but one lesbian with a internet connection!


Remember the Met Gala? Good times. Nice memories.


My favorite thing about this dress is that I know exactly what that texture feels like. Exactly!

  1. I always enjoy Vapid Fluff! i sure do enjoy your comments but unfortunatedly there are no pictures anymore :( it says “view this post on Instagram” but I do not have Instagram, so… nada :( could you maybe insert a preview screenshot that links to Instagram? 🥺

    • This is so weird because I used to have this thing too (on my phone browser, DuckDuckGo) and I used to have to click the link and be redirected to the Instagram website within my browser to see the pictures. Today for the first time ever I could see them embedded in the Autostraddle article on my phone browser! I wonder what changed and if there’s a way for everyone to see the embedded pictures!

    • If you wait, do they eventually load? I usually see the pictures but sometimes if my connection is slow, I’ll see the “view this post on Instagram” message first but the images will eventually load (unless I get impatient and leave).

      I’m on a Macbook using Chrome and Firefox.

    • While it didn’t work on my phone earlier today (Firefox), miracously it works on the laptop now (also Firefox, but it did not work last week) – from what everyone else says it seems to be a hit-or-miss based on device, browser, alignment of stars, weather forecast AND coincidence!

  3. “Too tall for tubs” made me laugh. As a person of average height I have never considered this! And now I’m thinking about how tiny Janelle is and so she WOULD love a good tub!
