I'm Jess. I run a YouTube channel called Pridebrary. It's like a library... but gay! I explore LGBTQ+, race, and gender representation in media. (God I hope this place is better than Twitter)

Are we really denouncing Simone Biles for being misinformed? Her call for trans inclusion obviously came from a sincere place. Sports segregation isn’t the answer, but instead of shitting on her, maybe educate her on why inclusion was right. If we drop every imperfect ally, we’ll have none. #lgbtq

Would you guys count ‘Blue Eye Samurai’ as an LGBTQ+ show? Gender non-conforming main character, but gender non-conforming to survive and kill everyone in her path. She’s murdersexual, and I’m here for it. 🥷🏾⚔️

Just saw ‘The Sandman’ S2 trailer, and all I could think about is what a monster the creator is… Sandman’s one of my fav comics, the show is fun. It’s got so much LGBTQ, gender, & BIPOC rep, and idk if it’ll ever feel the same. Can you, or should you, separate the artist from the art? #thesandman

Just saw ‘Tyler Perry’s Straw’. It’s got ‘Tyler Perry’s over-the-top drama’, ‘Tyler Perry’s convoluted plot’, and ‘Tyler Perry’s classic wtf twist’. The only thing Tyler Perry doesn’t own is Taraji P. Henson’s performance, she’s such a force. Unfortunately it wasn’t enough. 2/5 moons

On MLK Day celebrate his righthand man, Bayard Rustin. He ideated nonviolent protests and the March on Washington. A gay man, he became a footnote in history. LGBTQ+ erasure seeks to diminish our importance in history, but we were vital. Today think of the great things King & Rustin did TOGETHER 1/2
