i've actually really gotten into anime, the first ones i watched was howls moving castle and since i like really liked that i started watching all of the studio gibli movies and my favourite one is grave of the fireflies. awsome movie
Whoever did the drawings is amazing. I love the grafitti! And either way, both of you are fantastic. I love watching your vids, along with everyone elses on QueerFAQtor. :]
hey girls! Firstly i want to say i LOVE ALL your videos! You two are amazing, intelligent, funny, cute and wow AUSTRALIAN too - need i say more? hehe. i wait for your videos every week, but i always have to wait until wednesday to watch your videos ...so im just popping by and leaving this comment to tell you you have a fan out there who hates tuesdays in australia cos its not the day i get to watch the tuesday twinterlude =[
Thanks for this lovely comment. :) And yes, we're aware it's a bit weird having a twinterlude that isn't on a tuesday here o.O Wednesday Twinterlude just doesn't have that fab a ring to it does it? heh
The Big Gay Sketch show is amazing! Fitzwilliam sketches are love! I still have to own it though... or Skins (which is not easy to get a hold of where I live). I'm happy that BGSS comes with Outlaugh, which you should check out. It's hilarious (duh, it's stand up comedy - by LGBTQ[RTS])
I have a questin! Are u guys whats known as "mirror image twins" where one of u is right handed and the ther is left and the parts of ur hair are on the opposite sides of ur heads....I'm just curious cuz it's kinda rare lol.
hahah tegan and sara are awesome... i found out today that sarah is SUPER SHORT lol i saw her at work and ya she's like 5"1" lol and other great gay bands i know are all from canada lol Hunter Valentine, The Cliks, Of Montreal (their not canadian though) theres more i just cant think.. oh and if you like T&S look up Metric and Emily Haines - amazing band! OH and really good gay movie is GIA its seriously one of the best movies ever
Its cool that you get to watch Skins, they should totally make a new Sugar Rush, its freaking awesome. I wish your vids could be longer lol, your like a breathe of fresh air. I really enjoyed the creativity in this video :)
Hmm. I'm not sure about Lady Gaga.... and Katy Perry I think identifies as straight, just sings about a bicurious sort of moment... I don't know about the American Idols ;) Tila Tequila is an embarassment to television in my opinion, and Tatu were revealed to be a marketing ploy. But yes Ellen and I still are quite in the dark regarding many queer artists...
Jeannette Winterson is a British Lesbian author. One of her books, i think it is titled "Orange is not the only fruit" is about a young girl/woman accepting her lesbian sexuality. The book was made into a mini series in the mid 80's??
On a more recent note, do you have a few point about "Home and Away" including a lesbian kiss, and a lesbian couple. Did you see the footage? I have not. What did you think of it?
There's a lot of controversy around the 'lesbian kiss' and 'lesbian couple' in home and away... personally I think its great queer relationships are getting any coverage on such a mainstream show... whether the kiss was censored from a longer makeout or not seems to be a topic of debate and I'm not sure of the answer. I think the lesbian relationship is supposedly only running for about 6 episodes.. ratings ploy much? We'll see whether its positive by how it pans out I guess...
Lefty :) I think everybody loves Mean Girls. I do, mainly because of Lizzy Caplan :D There's going to be a second one, apparently, but it looks as though Tina Fey doesn't have any involvement. I can't imagine I'll enjoy it as much, but I'll give it a try. Musicals are amazing! Oh! I love the humour in Imagine Me and You; it's so British and I concur, But I'm a Cheerleader is really funny and Clea Duvall... Wow! Blah, blah. I've turned this into an essay. Sorry. Great taste in films, guys. :)
that is so true!!! i have problem with the notebooks too... specially spiral ones... i cant use gelly ink because i get my hand ink too... and some other things i cant remember now...
British TV and humour rocks our collective socks. !
Heheh... No I think Australians tend to view the Brits as more our kin in a way.... we have a rather critical view of Americans actually... they are often the butt of country jokes, if any country (other than new zealand!).. which is ironic because Australia is in many ways supposedly like America's 'little brother' in terms of culture media etc.
I'm surprised you didn't mention Missy Higgins or An Horse - two great Australian queer musicians. And I'm pretty sure Empire of the Sun counts as queer, too.
!!! Is it terrible that I have only heard the names of the latter two and didn't know they're queer? And Missy Higgins is a huge one. *headdesk*. I may have to mention that in today's vlog!
i finally decided what i wanted you guys to do for me! i dont know who of you lot is nerdier and more willing to figure out how to design a pan (the little half man half faun) tattoo for me but when you figure it out let me know...
(I can't remember which one is the illustrator but...) Are you a graff writer/artist? If not, you should be. Your style completely embodies a lot of talented graff writers' styles.
Thanks, that means a lot. :) Ellen and I both draw... I (Grace) did all the drawings except the music one which Ellen did. Graffiti and street art are one of my many artistic interests and inspirations. :)
OMG! You can't think of queer books!? Please see my channel for suggested reading - do it now! Your intrepid librarian, at your service :-) Love the chipmunk voices during the drawing sequences. I'm reading Sugar Rush the book right now and it's kinda hard to get through. Never seen the show/movie. xoxoxox
Thanks Rachel, I'll be sure to check out your channel for some book recommendations! Sugar Rush was apparently a 'so so' book, but the show is really fantastic in my opinion. I haven't read the book.! -G
I Love Doctor Who and I live in Wisconsin and no one knows what I'm talking about!
Hehe. :]
