These #NBA #mascots are pretty #queercoded...

The NBA only recently began #recognizing #LGBTQ+ #fans, but some of their #mascots could've been #marching in #Pride #Parades long before the start of #PrideNights.

#GoodOmens #star #DavidTennant on #kissing #MichaelSheen: “It was quite #fun”

The series has a dedicated #LGBTQIA+ #following, with #fans praising #Aziraphale and #Crowley’s #queercoded #relationship, including their long-awaited #kiss in season two. “The most difficult bit was other people’s awkwardness. We thought it was quite fun, so it was fine. He’d brushed his teeth.”

#MarieLaurencin’s #Queer, #Feminine #Utopias Are Gaining Renewed #recognition

Laurencin’s #subjects live in evident #harmony with #animals, and offer #tender, #queercoded #gestures of #affection to one another, and with the exception of two early #portraits, #men are nowhere to be found.

[Listen] This 1960 #country #bop is an #unintentionally #funny #tribute to #menwholovecowboys.

Sometimes a #song is #QueerCoded because of a #closeted #singer, #producer, or #songwriter. In other cases, the #track is simply #adopted by the #LGBTQ+ #community for various reasons, earning a spot in our hearts and minds.

dein Bösewicht... ist queerfeindlicher Müll.

(...ein arbeitsloser Erbe, der völlig über seine Verhältnisse lebt, NICHTS kann, durchdenkt oder durchzieht und stereotyp verzärtelt-dekadent-distanzlos durch die Dorfgemeinschaft tänzelt und alle abstößt. #queercoded #sissyvillain - die Graphic Novel heißt "Sheets" und ist erzählerisch und zeichnerisch gestrig und freudlos.)
