SHELBIE: “We also actually have seen a difference in characters. So there are 80 less characters last year, queer characters, like WLW characters. There are 80 less WLW characters in the last TV season than the year before so it’s kind of like-“

EMILY ANDRAS: “Where’d they all go?”

SHELBIE: “ABC lost 18. Netflix lost 22.”

VALERIE: “Just walked into the parking lot and disappeared.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “Yeah, exactly. Or they all got on the wrong bus to the greatest party that we can go to.”

NOELLE: “Oh that’s much better!”

EMILY ANDRAS: “Yeah, I wish that was true. I wish that was true.”

SHELBIE: “From an industry perspective do you think that there’s - because of the backlash of 2016 - there was an uptick in like ‘Oh, we have to do rep” and kind of now, everybody’s a little afraid of how to tell those stories. Do you think maybe that’s what’s happening?”

EMILY ANDRAS:

*to Noelle*

“That’s such a good question and I’m looking at you.”

NOELLE: “Yeah, I mean, I would say anytime you get a finger pointed at you and someone telling you you’re not doing a good job - especially like from a network perspective where those optics are really important. In the US, they seem to care more than they do here. I would say, not to be cynical but I would say, yeah, that is probably why there were more. But that doesn’t mean that those stories, clearly, were being told more responsibly or in a better way or that those characters were three-dimensional characters who were fully fleshed. I think if you can lose that many, they probably weren’t integral enough to your show to begin with.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “Yeah, that’s my fear a little bit. It’s almost like this cute trend for some people and I’m like ‘It’s not a trend. These are real people and this is real representation and this needs to be what it is going forward’. So I think there was a little bit of a sense from some networks - One Day At A Time - that maybe it was like, ‘Well we gave you some candy and then you are the candy and now there’s no more candy left’. And I’m like ‘It’s not candy’ and they’re like ‘We love candy. How dare you!’. Um… I think it’s both things. I think it’s both like ‘Well, we can just throw in a bunch of LGBTQ characters and like that’ll feed the masses’. But also the other fear is that I do think there is a little bit of a resistance particularly, potentially from writers who are older or more established that they’re like ‘Well, I’m so terrified to wade in here and tell these stories that I’m just not going to tell these stories or include these characters at all’. But that’s just bullshit. You just have to learn to be better maybe and try harder.”

SHELBIE: “Be more creative.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “Yeah, be more creative.”

NOELLE; “Retire!”

EMILY ANDRAS: “Yes, retire. Yeah, exactly.”

*crowd laughs and applauds*

SHELBIE: “Do you think there’s a way that we can use Wynonna Earp as a little bit of kind of like a flagship saying ‘Listen, you can tell queer stories and you tell them with drama’. What I hear a lot, I feel like from writers is ‘Well, I mean you don’t want to be bad rep, so then we can’t tell any stories because we can’t have any bad storylines’. But Wynonna Earp kind of - you guys have been proving that you can have the drama and you can tell the stories and then still treat your characters with respect. So do you have any idea how we could get that information in to like a more of a way where it could be digestible by executives or showrunners or other writers?”

NOELLE: “Yeah, I mean I think just tell everybody to watch the show. I mean like, come on.”

EMILY: “Everybody.”

NOELLE: “Everybody, tell your everybody. Um… I mean for me it comes back to making sure that your queer characters aren’t secondary or tertiary to the main characters. Like I think the fact that when Emily built this world, you know, um, the queer characters became-“

EMILY ANDRAS: “Team effort.”

NOELLE: “Yes, team effort. Whatever. I wasn’t even here…. Um the fact that you can, you know, have - you can have an episode where, you know, where Wynonna’s sister’s girlfriend can be in the entire A-story with her, like is a testament to the fact that though, you know, Nicole, or if you have a story with, you know, with um, with Doc and Jeremy, like those characters are fundamental to the lifeblood of the series. They’re not just somebody you go out to for kissing scenes so you can tick the box and say, you know, ‘We did our rep. We did a good job’, you know, and pat ourselves on the back. I think if more shows did that then you,… the drama would be inherent. Like if when you created those characters you thought how they related to everybody on your show, not just the person they were sleeping with or smooching with, then I think that would just give yourself more opportunity for drama because, um,… because those characters are real and they matter to more people than just their partner.”

VALERIE: “And then your only options for drama aren’t relationship drama because you have so many other relationships and you can tell so many other sides of the story and it’s a lot more exciting that way.”

SHELBIE: “If they’re actual characters, yeah. If they’re only the ‘gay character’ then you have no other story to tell than their drama I guess. Their relationship drama.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “Their sexuality can’t just be their story. It has to be intrinsic to their character - but their whole story can’t just be ‘I’m gay’ all the time, although that’s not the worst.”

NOELLE: “I would also say that I think as writers and, you know, producers and people in the industry, we are conditioned because it’s the way we came up. Because it’s what TV has always been. That the thing that’s the most dramatic is loss and tragedy. And I think we undervalue how much emotion and how much drama a queer audience can get out of a happy ending because it isn’t the standard. You know?

*crowd applauds*

I think we need to put more value in happy endings for queer characters and not just go ‘Well, you know, for straight characters a happy ending - like who cares? We should probably kill somebody’. Like maybe we could have a happy ending every once in awhile.”

VALERIE:

*to Shelbie*

“And to sort of go back to what you’re saying about like Wynonna Earp being a flagship. It’s why like sometimes the running joke on the Autostraddle TV team is like ‘I bet Valerie is going to bring up Wynonna Earp on this roundtable again’”

EMILY ANDRAS: “‘How dare you!.’”

VALERIE: “Because it’s true… yes, I’m definitely biased because I love the show, but it’s also true that there are so many things that you can point to. It’s like ‘Well, okay this show failed us, but look how Wynonna Earp did a similar thing and succeeded at it.’ So it’s like it’s kind of always pointing those things out to hopefully get future TV writers, future people who are reading TV critic recaps, and things now, that will go on to create, like have it kind of in the back of their mind.”

NOELLE: “I hope so.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “I am impatient though, like the one thing I want, which we’re not quite there yet is like, it would be good to have a world where you can also have like queer villains, you know what I mean? Like I want to get to the point where we have our heroes, so then we’re going to have awesome LGBTQ-like villains and complicated people and it’s… we just need more of everything. Do you know what I mean? And then it’s going to be more fully rounded. But I’m not completely sure we’re there yet.”

SHELBIE: “I think Gentleman Jack is making at least a little bit of a stride.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “It is. It sure is.”

SHELBIE: “Because as much as we all want to love her… she’s not exactly the greatest person in the world.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “She’s complicated. Exactly.”

VALERIE: “Villanelle.”

SHELBIE: “Oh, yeah, that’s a good one.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “Villanelle. Yup. Fine. I’ll write a gay villain. Okay?”

NOELLE: “But then you get…”

EMILY ANDRAS: “Friends to enemies, enemies to friends.”

NOELLE: “Then you get into the situation though where you’re like, ‘We have this amazing part… and it would be great to cast this character or to write this character as a queer character’, but ultimately the bad guys die, generally, and so you’re like well… so if we’re a show that has really good rep, is it okay if we kill the… if we write this amazing part for an amazing queer character, but then at the end they have to die. So then that’s an added level of, you know, if we had made real sustainable progress since 2016, maybe, but the fact that we haven’t means I don’t know that… I mean it’s-“

EMILY ANDRAS: “Difficult.”

VALERIE: “As of right now there’s still a very fine line between like a queer villain and villainizing queerness.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “That’s so true.”

SHELBIE: “That’s a good way to put that. I think though that there’s, from like a straight statistics point of view - somebody’s going to be crazy, somebody’s going to die, somebody’s all those things. So if you have enough to balance it. I think that’s how you do that. So if you have 4 gay characters and you kill one from like our, you know, objective scoring system, you’d still have a really positive score because you’d have enough positive to balance out… the thing that you’re doing.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “Right.”

NOELLE: “It’s still scary as hell though. It still would give me hives.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “Yeah, I don’t know. We have a super hero that shoots people in the face. So I just like, do not think that’s a good plan at this stage. Like, no, I just like honestly, I just like think about it all the time. It’s like, I just wanted to move faster. Do you feel like that for diversity in general? I’m just like if it was faster, then there’s going to be more times for people who are queer too. Do you know what I mean? Like that’s the other truth. Like the actors I know who are LGBTQ are like ‘I just want to do everything’ right? Like ‘I want to play Bobo Del Rey. I want to play everything’.”

SHELBIE: “It’s an interesting argument ‘cause we want queer people playing queer roles and queer writers writing queer stories. But at the end of the day you want queer actors to be able to just play anything right? The same way that we wouldn’t want anyone else to get boxed in. So that’s kind of a… it’s an interesting argument I feel like that’s happening right now in the industry.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “It is, but at least we’re having it. At least we’re talking about it.”

SHELBIE: “We’re having the discussion.”

EMILY ANDRAS: “Yeah, exactly.”

NOELLE: “And you can’t really ask like, you know? I was just on a show where I was like, it would be great to get like a queer actor to play this role, but you can’t ask so unless you know, and you don’t always know, like… how do you do that?”

SHELBIE: “Yeah ‘cause you can’t not hire them because they’re not queer or hire them. Yeah, that’s tough.”

I had to transcribe this entire question and answer segment from this EH Con Canada 2019 panel because it’s such an important conversation to have and set of questions to address regarding LGBTQ representation in TV art/entertainment. What they talk about is what I’ve been writing about frequently and recently about how to provide better and more positive LGBTQ representation - particularly surrounding WLW characters - and the representation anxiety and cancellation anxiety that so many TV show creators feel over potentially accidentally perpetuating the harmful trope of Bury your Gays and being mistakenly accused of queerbaiting through main characters that can be perceived as gay or queer when they’re not canon gay or queer main characters.

They specifically talk about how to go about telling stories with and about gay or queer main characters that are the same or similar stories that we see with straight, cis and white male characters all the time because there is much less controversy over it when it’s a straight, cis white male main character because those main characters are everywhere and their stories - both positive and negative - in TV art/entertainment are everywhere because they get to be all different types of negative and complicated characters like villains that are abusive and destructive people that do deserve death or other forms of punishment and there’s no resistance against that by the general public because it’s not ever marginalizing or villainizing a specific group or community of people that need representation.

I would recommend you to watch the whole video because it’s all important but I specifically think this part of the panel is the most important and I am so proud of Emily Andras, her entire Wynonna Earp team, and the Earper fandom for spearheading this incredibly necessary initiative in addressing LGBTQ representation in the TV art/entertainment industry. This is a conversation that everybody that cares to talk about this subject needs to have to make a real difference in achieving better and more positive representation for gay or queer characters that aren’t or won’t always be the greatest people and telling their stories where they have a negative or darker character arc than other characters that are also gay or queer that have a positive and lighter character arc.

How do we do this? We need to have the in-depth conversations in addressing this subject together as a LGTBQ+POC community before we go asking for and pitching it to TV showmaking networks that have a sincere interest in providing better and more positive LGBTQ+POC representation but are afraid to because of representation anxiety and cancellation anxiety.

This video is long but it’s well worth the watch. If you don’t want to or don’t have the time to watch it, at least read the little segment that I have transcribed and if you feel like you want to talk about it - I’m here.

Let’s have the conversation. It’s incredibly important.

I will link you to where I’ve written about this before if you don’t understand and want to know more: https://www.tumblr.com/girl4music/743149350219333632

Do not give the devil any such opportunity // Don′t give him a foothold // You know what happens if we give the devil a foothold // Then it's not long // And he gets troubled // And that′s what becomes very // Dangerous // So really and truly we need to watch the little things // That often // That don't matter but they turn into huge problems // If we don't do somethin′

Got thirty-five notches on the belt // Fire in the sky with five records on the shelf // Stress related symptoms in my health // Said I couldn′t take it with me // Watch me drag it all to hell then // I pour another bottle on my grave // Ain't nobody care about you // When you step up off this stage // Plus the doc told me i should count my days // Said the poison in my body′s like a bullet to the face

Unpopular Glee Thoughts Pt Six

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun is the most offensive glee song, quickly followed by A Little Less Conversation and Gangnam Style

Less Finn solos. Actually, let’s take this a step further. Less Finn.

Marley and Quinn and Tina deserved so much and got shit

Shelby was pretty bad

Putting Artie on the football team was the stupidest decision EVER and made absolutely no sense

After giving Tina her dress, Kitty didn’t need to come out in T-shirt and jeans. There was LITERALLY a rack of nice costume dresses behind them. She could’ve used one of them. Or Tina could’ve used one of them

Having Mercedes and her church choir not sing hymns/gospel songs/worship music while in church is offensive and disrespectful

I love Little Pink Houses 😂😂

I…. Don’t like I Am Telling You. I know I know! Don’t get me wrong, Amber KILLS and SLAYS as always. I just don’t like the song🤷🏼‍♀️

Brittany’s Toxic s5 outfit wasn’t very sexy. Damn those weird ass leggings

August 2022: Talking About Our State & Federal Primary & County General Election Results

We’re pretty excited with the election results here. Steve Cohen won the primary to continue to represent us in the House of Representatives. A lot of the judicial elections went our way. Our primary pick for governor won. To be clear, a Democrat in Tennessee has a snowball’s chance in hell of winning the governorship in the general election but at least folks voted for the ideal candidate instead of some milquetoast candidate that might appeal to moderates. That shit has never worked & it never will. Take it from someone who has lived in a red state their entire life, the middle of the road, compromise Democrat candidate will never win you one vote from a Republican no matter how moderate they profess to be. 

Back to the good news, county mayor Lee Harris hung onto his seat which is good news for Shelby county where The City composes a good portion of the geography. Even better news was Steve Mulroy’s defeat of incumbent Republican DA, Amy Weirich. The DA’s office under Weirich saw an inordinate number of overturned convictions due to questionable actions by the DA’s office. Seriously? Aren’t y’all supposed to be the “law & order” crowd? No wonder you lost to the candidate that you labeled an “activist.” For those of you that don’t live in The City, Weirich’s campaign signs had a caption that read “our” DA. Who is “our”? Memphians?... I don’t think so. Republicans? Bigoted white people in general? Anyone being honest knows the answer &, given The City’s majority minority population, that’s part of the reason why she lost.

...Aren't the Cherubs actually like eleven?

She is 11 units old in Cherub standard age. Cohen Edenfield, who is not Andrew Hussie or Shelby (the one that made the OC in the first place), stated that Calliope is the same age as the Beta and Alpha Kids, that being 16. And their aging, similar to Alternia's, have a difference in time measurement.

Nobody questions the copout because Roxy lesbians for Calliope is what most of the fandom liked. I mean, it's not the first time someone older fall in love with someone with an age gap. And I don't mean Meenah.

Do you want me to show up to TV show conventions?

Then please please please PLEASE do not just invite the actors to sit at panels! The creators (that is the writers, directors, producers and showrunners) are fundamental to TV showmaking and should be there!

You invite them and you’ll see me at cons all the time.

I love the actors - I do - but at the end of the day the people that work behind the scenes are the people that I want to engage with and talk to. Not the actors!

This was an incredible panel to watch for learning the perspectives of the creators of ‘Wynonna Earp’ as opposed to the actors. The actors are great but they’re just following a script created by these people so they’re going to know very little about the TV show and will have to defer to the creators for the answers anyway so just put the creators on the panels instead - or even alongside them if you can so you can have both the acting side of things and the creating side of things together influencing each other’s perspectives.

I don’t show up to conventions because I’m not interested in what the FACES of the TV show have to say. I am more interested in what the MINDS of it do!

That matters to me more than meeting and interacting with the actors of a TV show because I don’t care about their fame. I don’t care about their popularity. I love the show because of what’s put into it. Yes, the actors are obviously a huge part of what makes a TV show a success but they’re not a huge part of why I personally care and they never will be.

The only person I recognized watching this panel was Emily Andras, I didn’t know who the other 3 faces or names were. And that was so important to me because now I do and now I can appreciate them for the work they’ve done and the participation they’ve had on what has become my new favourite TV show.

What those unknown faces and names have put into ‘Wynonna Earp’ is the reason that I care to watch it. If I was at this convention, provided I knew who they were, they would be the first people I would walk up to to talk to about the very TV show I am even there for. I would not walk up to the actors (provided I was allowed to I mean) because, even though I love them, I don’t want to know what they have to say because I know it’s going to be very insignificant compared to what a writer or producer or director would tell me.

It makes no difference to me who they are. I won’t be there for them. I will be there for what the creators can tell me and show me and help me to learn more about the TV show that I love with everything in me because they’re the people that have the answers that I want to know about something that I have a great passion for talking about in the first place. It’s not the actors.

When I went to the 2022 Xena convention in LA, the assumption that I was there for Lucy and Renee like most people were. I wasn’t. I was there for STEVEN L. SEARS because he is the main reason why I love Xena. Sure it’s a team effort but all the plotlines and themes and character representations that I care about most in ‘Xena: Warrior Princess’ are mostly because of him. I’ve always credited Gabrielle and Gabrielle’s evolution to Steven, not Renee. I love Renee for portraying Gabrielle, absolutely, but she’s not who created the character and she’s not who created the arc of her. That’s Rob Tapert, Steven L. Sears and John Shulian. So I would obviously have more desire to talk to them. When Lucy and Renee were on stage in one of the panels for the convention, I had no questions for them.

None. But I had countless questions for Steven and Katherine and I was burning to ask every one of them.

So if you want me to show up to conventions for your TV show,… then please invite the people I would actually want to meet, engage with and talk to and I will show up to as many of them as I possibly can. I love seeing the actors and hearing their side of things but I have no reason to engage with them really because I am not ever there for them. That’s the truth.

I (a grown ass man) threw a child (16m) out twice and told him he was exactly like his father who is a deadbeat alcoholic just because he made a few mistakes. Later when he got out of juvie (after I got him arrested) I showed concern for one second then left him with an abusive war criminal because of a handshake deal. Gotta be honest, I don’t know why he didn’t come crawling back to me.

Months later he assaulted a kid (16m) by forcefully shaving his head, therefore stripping him of his identity. Yes I could have shown concern here for both boys but instead I decided to water down the assault and poach said child who had just been stripped of his identity. And because I’m the worst sensei ever, I also decided to use his karate to win a tournament instead of actually training my own boys.

Anyway, said tournament comes around. Turns out boy I threw out twice taught others my karate. Clearly this is more important than assaulting another kid and I treated it as such. I went up to him and proceeded to be a total dick about it (please do ignore the fact that I have no problem using other people’s karate to win tournaments, it’s just a very horrible thing when someone uses my karate). And finally, when assaulted kid had to face off with the guy who assaulted him, I told “don’t put passion over principle you’re such a horrible person”. Oh do I apply this principle to myself ever? No. But this kid is the bane of Satan so 🤷‍♀️. AITA?

TL;DR: I am the worst sensei in the world. AITA?

‘Santana has no game’ and ‘Santana hooked up with all of the glee girls’ are two things that can coexist thank you very much.

My #1 post of 2022

Tory: I’m proud to identify as morosexual. I’m attracted to dumbasses and dumbasses exclusively. I saw Robby pick up a venomous cobra with his bare hands and now I dream of kissing him under the moonlight.

Miguel: Wow, Tory. You’re such a-

Hawk walking in with a wheelbarrow full of matches: Hey guys, you don’t think Mr Larusso will mind if I set the dojo on fire?

Miguel fishing an engagement ring out of his pocket: God, Hawk, you are so stupid
