Editor's note: This article was updated When LGBTQ community-gathering spaces were largely put on pause by the pandemic, those once-in-person safe havens became our streaming platforms and technical devices at place. Hyper-specific pop subcultures emerged — here&#;s looking at you, queer readers of the generally awful &#;Friends&#; — and reputations for streamers&#; philosophies toward and commitment to LGBTQ content were widely discussed online. (Shout out to Showtime: the premium cable network still servicing lesbians everywhere.) Even as the world has opened back up, in Hollywood, it feels favor queer storytelling and society are more galvanized than ever.

Normally I wouldn&#;t even state this stuff but&#; desperate times! There&#;s gonna be three (3) Ryan Murphy projects such as horror show Grotesquerie, starring out actors Neicy Nash-Be (Photo by Netflix.
