Misandrist. Lesbian. Vampires.

Look.

Maybe being out is the new coming out.

The more I look at film trends over these past social media-soaked years, the more I see the same pattern emerging. The films that end up doing well and making an impact are those that treat their characters with enough care to make them complex, treat their audience with enough respect to make the story engaging and compelling. Ellen Page’s new film Tallulah is one of these films.

Pippy and TMI get another small side story on Rosewood, Nyssa pops by on Arrow, Orphan Black gets gag-y gross, and two more queer women have bitten the TV dust.

This outfit consisting of a rapidly deteriorating sweater, pleather pants, and a jacket made into a demi-skirt flashed me forward into a dystopian future where water is scarce but total gender/orientation presentation acceptance is not.

Don’t label me — I’m
a non-het identified
poly pagan witch.

It’s almost time for Autostraddle’s International Meet Me At The Record Store Day. Let’s talk about our favorite albums on vinyl to get ready!

A lesbian predator storyline, The Fosters? Really?

Clarke and Lexa’s road trip is cut short on The 100, everyone confesses to everything on HTGAWM, Broad City lays Ilana’s crush on thick, and Meredith is FINE, Y’ALL on Grey’s Anatomy.

Also: ABC has hired the first black female broadcast president, iO Tillett Wright scores a new MTV show, everyone is finally starting to see that lesbians make the best love stories, Julianne Moore can’t stop praising Ellen Page, and Elmo joins Hamilton.

You might be saying, “Brittani! Why is that fun?” And to that I say, I am a gender non-conforming black lesbian. If I couldn’t find fun in being the underdog, I wouldn’t be able to get out of bed in the morning.

Perhaps the best praise I can give Carol is that ten minutes into it, I forgot it was my job to be a critic. Twenty minutes in, I forgot I was watching a movie at all.

We’re running out of time, ladies! Can’t you please just kiss and make up?

After eleventy hundred years of being pregnant, Daya finally has her baby.

“After explaining who Shannon was in relation to me, we were let in to go through airport-like security around 7:40, I was handed a laminated piece of paper with ‘Applicant 1’ on it and an accompanying feeling of having won at waiting in line, and we were let up to the floor for the interview at 8.”

A homosexy lesbionic experience that takes us right back to t.A.T.u., and this time with no weird schoolgirl outfits.

“Sorry I was tripping balls at your birthday party and almost got everyone killed with a t-shirt cannon.”

“Stahma Tarr has undergone one of the most remarkable patriarchy-smashing story arcs I’ve ever seen, just a straight up Squib-to-Slytherin transformation that actually all started when she fell in love with another woman.”

Pretty Little Liars season 6 looks terrifying, Jessica Williams celebrates The Hate Class of 2015, Miley Cyrus tag-teams with Joan Jett to fight LGBT homelessness, and Shonda Rhimes is launching another diverse show.
