Well and hello again! This morning I am making our team rank lesbian hauntings, so stay tuned for that later this week — in the meantime, please enjoy this Pop Culture Fix.
+ I really love this interview between Kristen Stewart and Clea DuVall in In Style; I think you will like it too!
The first time I ever dated a girl, I was immediately being asked if I was a lesbian. And it’s like, “God, I’m 21 years old.” I felt like maybe there were things that have hurt people I’ve been with. Not because I felt ashamed of being openly gay but because I didn’t like giving myself to the public, in a way. It felt like such thievery. This was a period of time when I was sort of cagey. Even in my previous relationships, which were straight, we did everything we could to not be photographed doing things — things that would become not ours. So I think the added pressure of representing a group of people, of representing queerness, wasn’t something I understood then. Only now can I see it. Retrospectively, I can tell you I have experience with this story. But back then I would have been like, “No, I’m fine. My parents are fine with it. Everything’s fine.” That’s bullshit. It’s been hard. It’s been weird. It’s that way for everyone.
+ Also, she’s answering your fan mail!
+ Janelle Monáe closes the first season of Lovecraft Country with a virtual reality concert experience.
+ Demi Lovato reveals the exact moment she knew she was queer.
+ The cast of GLOW reunited to talk about voting and their show’s unceremonious cancellation.

Somehow I (a major Buffy fan) went until this day not knowing that there is a movie in which Sarah Michelle Gellar kisses another woman. I feel robbed and must immediately watch “Cruel Intentions”
Not to raise unwarranted expectations or anything, but that moment in that movie made me realize I was gay.
so, basically ymmv? seems like that train may have already rolled away from the station…
I would risk it all for Viola Davis😍
So many crushes in today’a Pop Culture Fix. Swoon !
Kristen Stewart is just getting better and better halp.
Thank the goddess Viola Davis is here to distract me.
KS is aging like a fine wine. And I’m enjoying it a lot.
