We wanna be mad, but take out the “unnecessary” and this is pretty much how we sound every single Should’ve Been Gay ep 😆

Screenshot of an angry post about a Halo ad. The text reads “This is unnecessary and intentionally signaling Trans. They know what they’re doing. Once you notice bisexual lighting being used, you cannot unsee it. This is intentional. I will not be gaslit.”
The photo is of a Halo character in the forefront with forest trees around them, a giant glass tower in the distance, and a blue sky with clouds above. In one tiny corner above the shoulder, the sky is a tiny bit pink in the clouds.

It’s time for our first Lez-ssentials of Season 9 with The Wedding Banquet! We loved this movie so much even though it had Ellie ugly crying on a plane. It has everything— chosen family, mommy issues, and even a scheme to defraud the government for healthcare. What more could we ask for?

Mega-shark doo doo doo doo doo 🎶🦈 This week we fin-ally are diving deep into The Meg with return guest Alix Markman (@markwoman.bsky.social‬)! This comedic monster-masterpiece of a movie is way gayer than you might think- from the queer commune (marine biology edition) to the lesbian wife sharks.

Centered bold text reads: “Should’ve Been Gay.” At the top, a small label says “LEZ HANG OUT.” Two polaroid-style photo frames are overlaid. The top photo shows two women from the film The Meg, one in a red top and black blazer, the other with tattoos, seated at a desk. A handwritten label beneath reads “The Meg.” The bottom photo is of guest Alix Markman, who has long brown hair, black glasses, and is wearing a black leather jacket, standing outdoors. The handwritten caption reads “with Alix Markman.”
