I've been postponing watching queer films coz of the grief(I'm still dealing with post Warrior Nun effects) but I'll try to get into these soon(even though Pride month is over). Also, I second every musician you've mentioned but I'd like to (highly) recommend Ambré

I never got into Warrior Nun but I definitely remember the chaos from its cancellation so I feel for you. Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy the recs when you get to them! I also loveeee Ambré, she was actually on my list of artists that I had for this post originally. I still plan on recommending her work in the future:)

Great recs! I saw the new criterion 4K restoration of BOUND recently and thought it was so much fun! PARIS IS BURNING plays in NYC pretty frequently so I'm hoping to catch it on the big screen soon.

So many great recommendations (the fact I've consumed most of this must say something about me lol). I highly recommend Durand's Tiny Desk concert! Thank you for bringing to light such great pieces of media to enjoy. Happy Pride month! <3

I have to save this post and come back to it again and again. Syd has such a lovely voice but I’ve never taken my time to listen to her music so I’m grateful for the recommendation as a place to start. You make me want to listen to and watch everything! I’m excited about checking out the rest of your recommendations–no matter how long that will take and Happy pride month!!
