Plus updates on A Million Little Things, All American, Astrid and Lily Save the World, and Charmed!

We met when I was 16 and she was 17. We weren’t dating, but we might as well have been. I’ve been thinking about her more than usual lately, ever since I found myself obsessed with Yellowjackets.

Are there certain stereotypes and expectations in the queer community that keep you from feeling valid? Babe this is for you.

“I’m experiencing a debilitating bout of professional jealousy for another (deserving) woman, and I’m having a hard time with it. I wonder if there are any books that focus on this regrettable phenomenon?”

Astrid & Lilly Save the World is a fun, silly sci-fi show with two fat female heroes, one of which is queer and crushing.

Ellie, Tess and Joel head out into the city, and we learn about a gay love story at the end of the world.

In the season finale of And Just Like That, Hollywood calls Che Diaz and Miranda answers, Rock has a they-mitzvah, and Carrie heads back to where it all started.

Celebrity crushes mean more to queer people than they do to straight people. They can be our first expressions of queer desire or our first expressions of gender envy. They can be a safe place to try out urges that aren’t ready for the real world.

I made Bang! Masturbation for People of All Genders and Abilities because it profoundly made sense to me, because there was a gaping hole in that plastic wall where there should have been some acknowledgement of pleasure, consent, or the emotions of sex. Bang! was designed to fill this gap with emotionally-aware, positive sex-ed. While we had been taught about the vas deferens and fallopian tubes, we had never been taught how to even talk about sex with a partner. I made Bang! because I thought it needed to exist.

Angelica Ross being interviewed by Crissle in a flurry of Black queer and trans brilliance, how to make serious sense of yesterday’s SCOTUS push to re-evaluate gay marriage, could the parents of LGBTQ+ kids decide the election? And more!

Black queer people are in this community. Trans queer people are in this community. And we deserve to get lost in a good time, too. We deserve fun, messy, sexy storylines. Just as much as any cis white woman over 50.

We have a Gay Agenda to fulfill! And we can only do it with your help! Also, do not miss these perks! We’re not kidding.

Riese: “Does the driver count as a lesbian character do you think?”
Drew: “How could she not be?? Did you see her blazers??”

We all — Ex-Orthodox, Orthodox, and bisexual — deserve better from Netflix than the perpetuation of misconceptions about our identities.

Work in Progress knows friends are family (and not in a corny way), the queer teens have a night to remember on Raising Kanan, and Jess is STILL MISSING on In The Dark.

Bottoms up Bottoms up it’s time for The L Word Generation Q Episode 306 recap and buckle up ’cause we’re taking a drug trip into a musical wonderland where Shane’s anchors are aweigh and Alice is wearing high-waisted acid wash jeans to reunite with her one true love!

This week, instead of a regular recap, I thought I’d provide a ranking of the Coterie Party karaoke performances with the not-so-subtle subtext behind their song choices.

The energy Miranda is giving in this scene — and, in fact, in this entire episode — is that little pig named Wallace from the Geico commercials who hangs out of the car window holding a pinwheel and screaming.

Last week I followed the sweet sound of fanboy weeping and discovered a treasure beyond my wildest imagination.

“This is what the show is about. The show is about dating your exes, your friend’s exes, and your exes’ exes. That’s the topic of the program.”
