Welcome back to No Filter, another week, another pile of Instagrams filled with famous queers trying to convince us that yes, they’re just like us. This week was relatively slow news-wise but I did pause to wonder about the infrequent whispers about Celine Dion possibly being one of our people. Like, do you know a lot of straight women who wear leather overalls? Just wondering.

Just another day when you’re Ruby Rose. Would anyone like to tell her about the banana museum?
I CAN’T DEAL WITH THIS RIGHT NOW.

Our very famous friend Brittani Nichols’ magnificence was finally witnessed by Gloria Steinem, and also these other people.

I LOVE IT WHEN PEOPLE I ENJOY QUIT SMOKING. If you see El Sanchez around, be gentle.

This is the only acceptable response.

There’s a lot to choose from in Gaby Dunn’s feed this week but I thought today we’d celebrate her being a cool queer teen.
Perhaps you’d enjoy this video of Laura Jane Grace singing “Happy Birthday” to her girlfriend, whose birthday seems to be a month and a half long (but I’m not mad at it).
Don’t talk to me or my mango son or my passionfruit son ever again.

Perhaps you would also enjoy this shot of Tegan and Sara on their way to BLOW THE MINDS of all the kids at the Autostraddle/Everyone Is Gay pride party last Saturday. I personally witnessed many tiny queers hyperventilating in their presence; it was adorable.
Join us next week, when.. I’m gonna be real with you, I still won’t be over that picture of Samira and Lauren.
