Hello, you perfect bluebonnets! I hope you danced your ass off this weekend! Was it to Dirty Computer? Because I have danced to Dirty Computer for at least five hours this weekend alone. Well, whatever helped you get your groove on, I hope it let you feel a little freer. Let’s talk about all the great and fun things happening in our queer world, okay?
Castings, Comedy, and More!
Jenn Richards has been cast in an HBO comedy, Mrs. Fletcher.
Cameron Esposito has a new set and it’s very good!
Disney’s got rainbow ears now, so you can be even more visibly gay at the happiest place on earth!
After 25 years, Liz Phair is still writing primarily for herself.
Michelle Wolf came for Sarah Huckabee. It was perfect and glorious.
We Published Some Good Stuff on Autostraddle This Week
Riese made you a Lesbian Day of Visibility playlist.
Mey wrote advice about being yourself while dating.
A whole bunch of really cool lesbians wrote about being lesbian and you really should read it!
Yvonne honored Laura Aguilar in this touching memorial.
We’re Still Not Over Janelle Monáe
‘Pansexual’ was among Merriam-Webster’s top lookups this weekend because, oh yeah, Janelle Monáe came out!!!!!
Speaking of Janelle Monáe, her “emotion picture”, Dirty Computer premiered on Thursday night and is now available on Youtube!
Happiest Sunday friends! I hope your week is so great!
Women wear for women players…what a novel idea!!! So May 13, I will be updating my jersey and hell, since it’s Mothers’ Day, why not get mom one too!!! :)
Why is nobody discussing how great is naming the cinematic form ’emotion picture’?
Damn Michelle Wolf went in. Her last reminder that Flint still doesn’t have clean water was a perfect ending and f you to everyone listening that day.
She went after everybody, there’s nothing left but cinders after that roasting.
Dragons have nothing on Michelle Wolf.
General T. Sherman who?
Jesus fuckin’ christ, YES – Michelle Wolf going in for the kill!! Way to take them down!
Jen Richards is incredible and I hope her show is a hit!
I’ve watched Janelle Monae’s Emotion Picture five times since Friday, I think? I’m obsessed (as I think anyone who has watched it would be)
