These are some of the top of my head. I haven't included anyone who choses not to label themselves but if they advocat for the community, I feel like they should be inlcuded for the work they do.


another thread idea:

LGBTQIA songs. (I have a playlist )

[shinebrighterxx]

For books Jodi Picoult has Sing You Home with a gay/lesbian focus. Then (spoiler alert) her new book Mad Honey has a trans focus (highlight for spoiler)

I like that idea. (Your playlist has me curious )

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1D...e37bfa24a04329 It's my personal playlist but a lot of

[shinebrighterxx]

some weekend tunes or maybe after work tomorrow I think... thank you
I think if I put together a playlist it would be very limited. I should find more music

[madness]

I have a few themed playlists that are based on the vibes of a character, like spencer reid (a lot of chill vibes and sad music), the joker (a lot of 'I'm ready to burn the world' vibes) and so on. So I often start from other playlists people have made, go through loads of them, listen to the lyrics and if fits the character I add it to mine. And then Spotify gets the vibes of my playlist more and gives accurate recommendations. Wonderful way to discover new music!


Speaking of Spotify, my top song of 2022 is We Don't Talk About Bruno.

[shinebrighterxx]

I really should explore Spotify better it sounds like

[madness]

No much goodness.

Also for them girls, my ";venom" playlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5W...f71140ec0e4ef2

[dracarys]

Please add me to the list as well

I basically find a LGBTQIA+ pairing in any media I consume so I'm all in for a board centered around my community

[madness]

Glad to see so many of us in already.

It's so nice to see this thread already active! Let me catch up and get everyone added

Also let me just dump some more shows here while I'm thinking about it before I combine everything together.
Interview with the Vampire (also the movie and books!)
Love, Victor
RuPaul's Drag Race
Sense8
Shadowhunters
Schitt's Creek


Books
Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas
The Shadowhunter Chronicles by Cassandra Clare
The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater

There is also shows like The Untamed, one of my personal favorites, but I'm not sure how many people would know about it or other Asian dramas. If anything maybe there could be a general thread for them and if any are a popular enough topic then they can have their own thread?

[shinebrighterxx]

Maybe to start there should just be a thread which lists recommendations? Then if people want to start threads for popular shows/characters/couples/books/celebrities/ect. they can

[pink velvet]

A recommendation thread would definitely be a great idea! And a good thread to feel out if certain shows, or books, or whatever could potentially thrive in their own thread
