Trans and other queer Youtubers

Mon, 04 Dec 2023 01:05:44 GMT

Over on transmediaclub, olivermoss posted a link to this collection of queer youtube essays and asked if anyone had any recs for other trans youtube creators before reccing caelanconrad.

Here's the comment I left:

Two creators I've enjoyed who are linked there are KatBlaque and verilybitchie.

Dropout is a big ensemble channel but has a few trans creators. Here's a cute moment involving the non-binary Ally.

I've watched an enjoyed a few videos by LauraKBuzz, who also talks about accessibility.

I think Vihart doesn't identify as trans but she posted a video about her agender-adjacent gender feelings, and otherwise posts very entertaining videos about maths, music, and other things.

moju_music is an amazing Indigenous Australian musician

CriticalProf is a pair of lit professors, one of whom is non-binary, who have had some interesting discussions of works inspired by the 18th and 19th century.

EDIT: Also since making this post I got around to watching the hbomberguy video about plagiarism that inspired him to make that list, and it was long but good! The fact that he's bi isn't always super relevant to his videos but it sure came up in this one, and he's donating all ad profits to the (largely queer) creators who were plagiarised.

They asked over at transmediaclub and I thought I'd repost my comment here. It's still Trans Day of Visibility in some parts of the world!

Thinking about how incredibly queer my favourite fiction was as a kid

Tue, 03 Sep 2019 02:37:07 GMT

A cute A League Of Their Own vid on mmhm-vids reminded me how often I look back on stuff I was SUPER INTO as a kid and go "Ohhhh". I think I might have posted about this before but I'm DOING IT AGAIN.

These summaries are based on what I can remember, and thus are guaranteed to be skewed by child me's perception, watching the trailers is...odd.
