Default The queer corner

Did a search and nothing came up. I'm thinking it would be nice to have a space for any queer members or people who support the community to share things related to the queer/LGBTQ experience. It could be anything, from music related stuff, to any kind of rights news, stories, films, shows, whatever.

For example, this came to my attention this morning: Travis Scott Addresses Amanda Lepore’s Absence on Astroworld Cover Art

Scott's explanation for removing Lepore (whom btw I didn't know anything about and still don't beyond this issue) because she "upstaged everyone" including him, seems terribly weak, given there are 5 half naked or naked cis-women, who are much more eyecatching than Lepore. I was actually convinced at the beginning that the alternate cover was all Lapore and it didn't make the cut (in which case the explanation would make sense since the naked women really do take centre stage), only to find out later, after much comparison between the images posted by LaChapelle and Scott, that Lapore is just a small figure on the left hand side in the "alternate" cover. Strange gaffe...
