Pop Culture Fix: You Can Wear Whatever You Want to Sue Bird and Megan Rapinoe’s Lesbian Wedding

Gooooood Wednesday to you, pals! Thank you so much for your interest in Bird Bonanza TV, which I introduced in Monday’s Pop Culture Fix. Here is an update!

Socks injured his back and was paralyzed last summer. He learned to walk again but can’t jump. Or, well, *couldn’t* jump — until five seconds ago when he leapt up on the credenza to fight the squirrels on Bird Bonanza TV. pic.twitter.com/6mizg7wO14

And here is your queer pop culture news link round-up!

+ Sue Bird chatted with People about Corona (the beer, not the virus), her personal style, wedding planning, and her final season in the WNBA. This is really just a Corona advertisement disguised as an interview, and frankly, I don’t care. If I’m have to see the damn Mannings everywhere with their national sports endorsements, at least I can see Sue Bird too. Anyway, for their wedding, Sue and Megan will be having Corona and you will be wearing whatever makes you comfortable. I hope Ashlyn Harris wears one of those shorts tuxes again.

+ So the CW has announced a whole lot of renewals, including Nancy Drew, but SUSPICIOUSLY ABSENT from the list is: Batwoman, Naomi, All American Homecoming, Legends of Tomorrow, and Legacies.

+ Grace and Frankie will be back for one last season on April 29th. (With DOLLY PARTON GUEST STARRING.)

+ HBO has renewed Che Diaz in the City for a second season.

+ A love letter to Gentleman Jack.

+ Marvelous Mrs. Maisel creators address Susie’s lesbian bar reactions.

+ Here’s the real reason why Amber Benson declined a Buffy comeback.

+ Apex Legends’ unmissable queer love triangle is a triumph.

+ Melissa Etheridge says the songs on her new album were written before coming out.

+ Underrated queer cinema and where to watch it.

+ Another day, another Disney character who was supposed to be gay.

+ I’m always trying to think of some way to make Beyonce news gay so I can put it in Pop Culture Fixes, but whatever, she’s Beyonce, she can go wherever she wants — including to this year’s Oscars to perform.

+ Lizzo’s SXSW performance will stream as part of Prime Video Women’s History Month.
