….all this in one episode.

The Flash: what the fuck is a gay?

Supergirl: One (1) Badass gay main character. She sad tho, bc we broke her up with her fiancee who got like 3 min of screentime every now and then. Trans superhero who is also Ray of (Sleepy) Sunshine. 10/10 would protect at all costs.

Black Lightning: One (1) black bulletproof gay superhero. Her gf is bisexual and also has some powers but not a lot of screentime also we don’t know how they got together, it just… happened. It’s a baby show tho, so we cut it some slack for being awesome.

Me: *remembers that episode of season four where Quinn and Santana had sex*

I just wanna paint the town. I don’t wanna hide my love. I just wanna hold your hand and be the one that you think of When you need a holiday, when you wanna drink rosé I just wanna paint your toes, and in the morning, kiss your nose ‘Cause when I’m with you, I don’t feel afraid. Maybe this love will indoctrinate High I go with every word that you say. The way you feel, yeah, I feel the same way. Remember the night when I combed your hair? I hope I didn’t freak you out when I stared. I donate my truth to you like I’m rich. The truth is, love ain’t got no off switch. So if the walls come tumbling down, and if the ocean really does drown, and if my memories never come back, I’ll still remember where we first was naked at. Picture our faces and new oases. When we made love, we left many traces.

I’m sure y'all are familiar with the series ‘Drunk Lesbians Watch’ on YouTube created by Amanda Holland where she has her queer friends watch gay movies with her and they react to them. Well ex-Buzzfeed employee Amanda Holland has teamed up with other creative ladies and has created a new web series called 'Carol’s a Demon.’

Carol’s a Demon is centered on two queer women, one of whom is a demon and the other a regular human. Regular human, Sofia (Ashly Perez), accidentally summons a demon, Carol (Brittany Ashley), while playing Oujia and is now tied to her and has to help her get into Heaven by stopping the apocalypse. I know, I know my description probably doesn’t do the web series justice but trust me, my girlfriend and I watched it and it’s so good!

You might recognise these three women from Buzzfeed hoho. Not only is this series created by and stars women but the writer (Amanda Holland), the two lead actors and most of their crew are LGBTQ+ women! So being a lesbian filmmaker myself, I was so happy to find out about this lastest project and will do everything in my power to support it!

The pilot episode just came out and you can watch it here. These ladies want to make it into a whole series (and my girlfriend and I really, really want to see it) but they need an audience and support from the community.

You can donate here to help them make the rest of the season!

Even if you don’t donate, please support this series by watching or sharing it because every small thing helps :) Please help me support these ladies!
