Happy Birthday, Grey’s Anatomy. (And before you ask, yes, I managed to fit in Callie and Arizona’s brief shower sex scene from season six. )

“I love being gay because I get to call these brilliant and vibrant queers my friends and family.”

It is not a small thing for Y&R to cast Mariah’s love for Tessa in the same mold as one of the show’s great supercouples, Nick and Sharon. It’s a normalizing force for a conservative audience that might not view a same-sex story that way.

“Almost all of the characters are terrible people and the main values I share with them are workaholism and excellent hair. But sometimes when things fall apart, it can be nice to see things fall apart somewhere entirely different, again and again and again.”

This week’s Modern Love columnist wanted to know if “there’s something queer about being single.” Apparently, the “no”s were so loud, they changed the headline.

Depression is not forever because it always ends, and depression is forever because it always comes back. It won’t work if I only want to stay on the days when my brain breaks through the muck. Turn Out The Lights is a meditation on wanting to stay on the very worst days.

Turn on all the lights in the house and come read about the Winchester Mystery House, haunted cabins, songs playing from beyond the veil, and our deeply unsurprising number of experiences with ghost cats.

“Live from my wet dreams, it’s Saturday Night!”

If you’re a reader that’s constantly on the go or lives in a tiny house or apartment with an adorably small but mighty kitchen like this one and are always left out of the baking party, this one’s for you!

“I was in the military for four years, military police, and I never once experienced something like that.”

Stacy asked what she could do, how she could help, all she wanted to do was be useful, and I said nothing, nothing, I’ve got everything under control. And so she held me on the nights I was pretending to be able to sleep and whispered “I’ll take care of you” over and over without ever expecting an answer.

In “Pockets,” Sydney and her mom are on their way to go shopping for some hiking boots and shorts for Sydney’s trip. She’s normally wearing skirts and cute flats, but her mom is understandably concerned about those kind of clothes while she’s hiking up a mountain for a week.

Star knows that some women have to make impossible choices, that they hustle to survive. I don’t remember the last time I saw a show on network television that embraced this brand of dark, unrelenting Girl Power.

With her 20th studio album out and a tour with Andrea Gibson on the horizon, the li’l folksinger talks politics, activism, and why she’s still getting happier as she gets older. She also called me babe.

Transparent isn’t a show about any single person. It’s a show about family. That’s what it’s always been and when it focuses on that, it’s at its absolute best.

These are the documentaries that changed our lives and/or made us better people and/or entertained us. Maybe you’ll like them too!

How do we want to be seen in our daily lives? How much control do we really have over it? How do we make ourselves visible in a world that often chooses not to see us clearly, and what risks and complications come with it? There’s no one answer, which is why we had all these Autostraddle staffers who identify somewhere under the bisexual umbrella talk about it for you!
