Plus updates on Top Chef, A Million Little Things, and 9-1-1.

Big slut energy, a friend lying about traveling, how to get reading done, dealing with getting misgendered by coworkers, and more!

The visual and narrative tension, of course, ramps up the eroticism, but so does Madeline and Nina’s actual relationship, which hasn’t aged in that calm, quiet, mature way we usually think of lesbian grandmas.

We’ve got Josie Totah in a movie about ‘zines vs. misogyny, Anna Camp as a terminally ill lesbian, HBO’s buzzy “high schoolers explore their sexuality” series “Genera+ion”, a dystopian dating app drama, the bad lesbian dinosaur movie and so much more!

Vintage Vapid Fluff: Never forget that Amelia Earhart and Eleanor Roosevelt skipped the White House for a lil date night in the skies! Also, Roxane Gay on the New Year, engaged soccer stars, the best vibrators of 2021, and why we love squishy dogs and cats the most.

Plus a fully jam packed round-up, including updates on: All Rise, Genera+ion, Charmed, Nancy Drew, Legacies, and Station 19.

This is the legacy of colonization. It is the mass extinction of identities and languages that can no longer exist because someone else said they were bad.

Remember Tila Tequila?

Alike is a chameleon, disappearing in the light of her surroundings — purple in the club, green on the bus, pink at home — only ever showing you her profile when she’s forced to be less than her authentic self.

The author discusses her new memoir “The Red Zone,” which chronicles her experiences with premenstrual dysphoric disorder and provides a kaleidoscopic view of how people feel about their periods.

“She raises both hands to the orchestra and she smiles into the audience. She nearly breaks her face in two because she knows, she really knows, that she did it. She’s the star.”

Stop hanging out on that cliff and get in here for recap of Season Two Episode One of “The L Word Generation Q,” in which Sophie looks great in a suit and Shane is ready to liquor in the front and poker in the rear!

The Autostraddle team offers advice on a relationship crisis, dealing with the fact that your ex has moved on quickly, a friend who is less interested in rekindling the friendship than you are, commitment and marriage and more!

I hope Yellowjackets keeps teasing us, keeps planting “character Easter eggs” rather than plot ones, keeps revealing things that ultimately are easy to predict but difficult to swallow.

Just remember: it only gets harder from here on out!

My grandparents and mother were crowded around my grandfather’s laptop; they had lit candles on a cake and sang happy birthday. I was about to make excuses to go back to studying when my grandmother mentioned the referendum. “You know, we’ll see your sister in a few weeks. She’s coming back for the vote.”

Plus updates on the season finale of Nancy Drew, Top Chef, New Amsterdam, The Bold Type, and.. did y’all see Cynthia Erivo’s gay new music video?

As annoying as it is, probably, to hear it, you really have to lead with love. It’s not our responsibility to love people who hate us or wish us ill, but if those people are your friends or family, it is yours. If you genuinely care about your family and want them to be and do better, let that ground your conversation.

Wine, sex, violence, and music in the woods! The Yellowjackets go full Bacchanalia in the series’ trippy, psychosexual horror episode “Doomcoming.”

The show’s Halloween episode delivers horror, humor, queerness, and — most importantly — A CALIGULA SIGHTING.
