Hard launch January continues with the (mostly) predictable fate of Tiktok dominating the news week along with LA wildfires aftermath, and The House passing an amendment to Title 9 to ban trans students from women's sports.
Lawbrey "Drake" Graham reaching new heights of Karen with his federal defamation suit against UMG over "Not Like Us".   

In Am I A Bad Queer? we discuss problematic entertainers, jealousy against other queer people who are living freely, and when to share your kinks with your significant other.

For Bad Queer Opinions, Shana emphasizes the need for platonic friendships for same gender loving people and Kris loves that she doesn't know so many queer folks.

Shoutouts:
Kris:
Karine Jean-Pierre - farewell for now. Jean-Pierre gave 306th and final briefing this week. I’m happy she will be able to spend more time with her family. She made history as the first out Black press secretary and served that role with dignity and strength. 

Shana: Amplify Pledge - They mobilize individuals, organizations, and brands to advance social change through content. We recently reposted a video on Black Queer History from Kymon W that was shared on Amplify Pledge’s page - go check it out and check them out @amplifypledge
