Grumpy Beastie's Other Lair

Drunk Lesbians Watch was one of my favorite webseries while it ran. Being created by Girl Ship TV on YouTube, it was a series where two queer women (the main host and a guest host) watched and reacted to WLW movies (and occasionally other media) while drinking. It was a good time.

The show ran into copyright claim issues despite being covered under fair use and the main host grew increasingly uncomfortable making the show as it was increasing in popularity and starting to get back to production and crew on the movies and she works in the entertainment industry. Eventually, the show went behind a paywall and then stopped entirely. With the pandemic, all shows on Girl Ship TV stopped in production (hopefully temporarily).

For Pride last year, I compiled a list of everything Drunk Lesbians Watch reacted to, both on YouTube and Patreon. I thought it would make a fun themed watch list for others and was going to post it elsewhere, but never had the chance, so now I am posting it here. I am not 100% sure this list is complete, but it is all that I could find. I wish they had posted the intended movie list somewhere, as the host stated at one point that she has another year's worth of movies planned out and another two years of suggestions that they never got to do. It has been ordered alphabetically, instead of episode order. If there is a “?” by a movie, it means I am not totally sure I have the right date for the movie, as several have multiple movies pop up when you search for them. I have crossed out the movies I know I have seen for sure. (After watching an episode of Drunk Lesbians Watch, it could be easy to think you've seen the movie when you haven't XD) There is a clean version of the watch list in the text box, should you want to grab the watch list for yourself.

Happy Nonbinary Awareness Day/Week

Like everything else, I got behind on these posts (thank you anxiety, being sick, and my back going out). I'm not sure if I am going to try to crunch them in before the end of June or if I am going to let some of them drift into July, just because I have other things to post as well and I don't like putting up more then four posts a day.

This video is by Jessie Gender. She tries to "talk about the nuance in the nerdy," and focuses her video essays on "issues facing the LGBTQ community, transgender specific community, women, nonbinary and autistic folks as well as other social and political issues through and within geek topics." Her videos try to keep the conversation constructive, positive, and educational, with a bit of humor and silliness. Her discussion of kink at Pride focuses on the history of kink at Pride and why it has always been there, as well as addressing some of the main arguments against it. She has a long list of citations for the video in its description box on YouTube, and, if you feel so inclined, there are some constructive conversations in the comment section there as well.
