Do you know any good LGBTQ+ movies or series on Netflix? I've watched oitnb, blue is the warmest color.
Try Sense8 on Netflix, that’s a really good show. And personally I loved The Favourite but it’s not your typical queer movie. It’s just a movie where the main characters happen to be queer.
Sorry I can’t be of more help, I usually don’t watch media just bc of LGBTQIA+ themes or representation.

It’s Just a Movie. It’s Just a Show.
Back to the Future helped me get through the hardest month of my life ten years ago.
Love, Simon made me feel more comfortable with aspects of my identity…
Which I now embrace through a love for chick flicks.
“Veronica Mars” helped me get through high school…
And “Doctor Who” helped get me through my first year of college.
I was able to bond with my dad over our mutual appreciation of Coen Brothers movies…
Deadpool gave us a way to properly express how much we hated his cancer…
And “Brooklyn Nine Nine” is helping me deal with his passing.
Zombieland taught me how to laugh again…
And The Imitation Game taught me how to cry.
“Avatar: The Last Airbender” provided storytelling which challenged me as a child…
While shows like “Static Shock” opened my eyes to cultures & experiences other than my own.
Bandslam was a movie so close to my life as a 13 year old it felt like I’d written it…
While How to Train Your Dragon showed me that just because I was a weirdo didn’t mean I was alone.
The Book of Life helps me feel more comfortable about death…
And “The Good Place” encourages me to life a full life.
“Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” makes me feel more comfortable about talking about my mental health issues.
Chicago got me through pneumonia.
Planes, Trains & Automobiles is a Thanksgiving tradition in our home.
I feel closer to my mom because of Harry Potter…
To my brother because of Lord of the Rings…
And to the rest of my family because of Disney films.
People say, “It’s just a movie,” or, “It’s just a show,” like that’s minimizes it, but it doesn’t.
“Just a movie,” means it is a storytelling device that resonates with people.
“Just a show,” means it is something people can come back to when they need it.
Entertainment, storytelling, and art have the power to inspire people…
To change them, to help them deal with their life…
To connect with others…
And to see themselves represented in ways they never thought they would.
So if something is just that, then I think that’s pretty great.

Cooking on High
July 6, 2018; 6:53am
“Cooking on High” is a culinary competition series that has a specific element that distinguishes it from other shows in the genre. That distinguishing factor is that each recipe prepared on the show must contain cannabis, and enough of the drug to get the judges high. Each episode pits two chefs against each other in a single round, with the challenge of creating a dish based on a particular theme and using the chosen strain of marijuana. The contestant who earns the higher score is awarded a golden pot (the kind you cook with). Despite the marijuana-centric aspect of the show, the contestants are legitimate chefs, with backgrounds that include working as executive chefs and being trained at Le Cordon Bleu. YouTube personality Josh Leyva hosts, with comic and noted cannabis enthusiast Ngaio Bealum serving as the resident “culinary weed expert.”

Actually, there is a word for that. It's love. I'm in love with her, okay? If you're looking for the word that means caring for someone beyond all rationality and wanting them to have everything they want no matter how much it destroys you, its love! And when you love someone y-you just don't stop. Ever. Even when people roll their eyes or call you crazy. Even then. Especially then. You just- you don't give up because if I could give up... If I could just, you know, take the whole world's advice and- and move on and find someone else, that wouldn't be love. That would be... That would be some other disposable thing that is not worth fighting for. But that is not what this is.
Ted Mosby; Josh Radnor // How I Met Your Mother Season 9 Episode 17: Sunrise
