Last night I dreamed I was the only one who could save the world from this terrible monster attack, and so Beyonce spritzed me with her cologne (Beyonce by Beyonce) and told me it would give me superpowers. After I beat the monsters, I thought she would say, “The power was inside you all along.” But no, it was actually Beyonce by Beyonce that saved the day. ANYHOODLE, here’s a Pop Culture Fix, which is almost as cool as being spritzed with Beyonce’s signature scent by her own hand. (No, it’s not.)


+ Heartstopper’s season two trailer is for the softies like me! I swooned so hard I almost passed out! Or, at the very least, I almost made myself cry!

+ According to Phillip Lewis on Twitter (I’m not going to call it X, ever), “A Black Lady Sketch Show” showrunner Robin Thede and her team donated the series’ entire wardrobe to Beauty2thestreetz, a nonprofit that provides services for homeless women.”

+ One Indigenous lesbian superhero coming right up!

+ 15 must-watch movies about strikes and unionizing, from Newsies to Norma Rae.
