I don’t want to brag (yes, I do) but I got both my personal and professional email inboxes down to zero this morning. Did I do a slapdash job because I knew my therapist was going to ask me about it? MAYBE. But is it done? IT SURE IS! Let’s Pop Culture Fix to celebrate.
+ Kehlani stopped by Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast, which is a thing that exists apparently, to talk about being a lesbian and how her therapist helped her realize what an awesome thing that is. “I donβt have any relationships with men anymore,” Kehlani said. βIβve been out as a lesbian for two years. I, quite frankly, thought maybe I was just like broken, then my therapist was like, βHow do you feel about women?β I was like βIf a girl looks at me, Iβm gonna melt.β But I could not say those things about men. She was like βYou ever thought that maybe youβre just gay?ββ¦I was like βYeah, youβre right actually, probably.’”
+ Hem hem.

+ May I interest you in the trailer for the final season of Star Trek: Picard?
+ 90 Day FiancΓ©: The Other Way season four will feature a trans guy and a sapphic couple.
+ Itβs not just the Oscars that fail Black women. Itβs the entire awards ecosystem. Related: The Oscars shutting out The Woman King is a disgrace. I AGREE.
+ The Last of Us is getting a second season. I would say, “No surprise there” β but, honestly, the way streaming platforms keep doing queer shows, I’m simply relieved!
+ Niecy Nash-Betts has joined Ava DuVernayβs Caste.
+ Top Chef season 20 will be a WORLD ALL-STARS in London. Natalie says it’s not gay enough, and I fear she’s right! We’ve been so spoiled these last few season, and Dan Levy’s The Big Brunch made me forget straight people even exist in the kitchen.
+ Critical Role and Amazon are following up The Legend of Vox Machina with an animated series about The Mighty Nein! The very queer Mighty Nein!
+ Melanie Field has joined Darren Aronofsky’s The Answers, which makes me very happy for her, but also very worried about what this means for another season of A League of Their Own.
+ ARE WE HAVING FUN YET?
weβre getting the gang back together! watch the trailer for #PartyDown, premiering February 24 on STARZ. https://t.co/OYJxBIXe3K
