Know Other Festival Is the Queer Camping Experience You Didn’t Know You Needed
Four days in the California desert, surrounded entirely by queer women, trans, and nonbinary people. Healing workshops led by queer facilitators. Live music under Joshua Tree skies.

Mother Mary Is the Sapphic Film of the Year and Here’s Everything You Need to Know Before It Hits Theaters
Let’s be honest about what we’re dealing with here. Mother Mary, A24’s new psychological pop thriller directed by David Lowery, is not a film that buries its queerness in subtext.

How Mainstream Coverage of the Gap Ad Fails Young Miko’s Intersectional Reality
GAP’s latest campaign featuring Young Miko is a genuine triumph. As the brand’s first-ever Spanish-language ad, it features a rhythmic reimagining of her hit track “Wassup” (re-titled “Sweats Like Us”) and a cast of 26 dancers.

For most of us in the LGBTQ+ community, the dream of starting a family doesn’t just come with a “biological hurdle”.
