        How 'Clueless' became the defining film for a micro-generation of queers

Justin Walker and Alicia Silverstone in 'Clueless'

        Paramount Pictures
    
Clueless is a cultural touchstone. A film that is just as accessible today as it was to its audience when it first debuted in 1995. The picture turned 30 (gasp) earlier this summer, yet it still reads as largely timeless three decades on from release. The film made a lasting mark on pop culture, particularly resonating with those of us who saw it for the first time in our adolescence. The film was released at exactly the right time to imprint upon Xennials (a micro-generation including people born between roughly 1977-1983). Accordingly, many Xennials (myself included) consider Clueless the defining film of our often underrepresented generation. After all, it’s smart, well-written, funny as hell, and even features quality queer representation at a time when that was anything but common.

Trans creators on Bluesky are raising the alarm after multiple users were suspended for posts expressing negative sentiments about J.K. Rowling—including ones that didn’t mention violence or threats.
The controversy began when trans writer and YouTuber Jessie Earl (aka Jessie Gender) was suspended for 24 hours after simply posting: “I also wish ill on JK Rowling.”

What is a stem lesbian?

We swear, every time we turn around, there is a new type of lesbian out there. From futches to Hey Mamas to the old standbys: butches and femmes, there is a type of sapphic for every taste, and no matter your personality in or out of the bedroom, there is probably a term you can identify with, including “stem lesbians.”
No, we’re not talking about a Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math lesbians (although smarty pants queer ladies are out there). Stem lesbians are Black and Latinx sapphics who fall somewhere between studs and femmes.
