After Max goes back to HBO Max, it goes back to being HBO, then Home Box Office, then Sterling Cable Network, then Manhattan Cable, as the grass grows back into the ground and we all marvel at Video Jukebox, George Carlin Specials and G-String Divas

sapphics are making the best pop music right now! we always have been! great long read by @abbananafish.bsky.social:

It's not the first time we've been on top of culture, and it won't be the last.

I was interviewed for and quoted in this long-form Rolling Stone piece along with very smart scholar friends @alyxvesey.bsky.social and @kgoldschmitt.bsky.social! Thanks @abbananafish.bsky.social for chatting w/ me about the racial implications of who gets considered and celebrated in sapphic pop

Kaleb is a brilliant thinker and a very cool person. We got to trade Lilith Fair stories. I am grateful I was able to include their perspective in this piece.
