Sources for Dracula and Lesbian Vampires!

Hey everyone! So my vampire duology has come to an end, and we will be moving on to other topics for the next video! I hope you enjoyed this deep dive into why vampires are so queer! The topic consumed my life for almost two months, and its hard to move on, but move on I must! 

I have sources here with links to stuff which is available for free online! I think I got everything here, but my notes tend to be very chaotic, so let me know if I missed something and I'll find the source ...

Preview: New Video Friday!

This Friday I will be releasing the second and final part of my bisexual vampire series (apparently two-parters is a thing I do now?). Please enjoy this photo of me drinking what is definitely not wine, and the other photo of a ringlight falling on my face in the middle of filming! How I suffer for my art!

"The Lesbian Vampire and her Bisexual Lovers"

New video premiere tonight! Hope you can make it! :D 

This video is about the trope of the lesbian vampire in film - the origins, the evolution, the bisexuality, the nipples! Its half an hour long, and I think and hope its quite fun. There's no blood or gore really, because youtube doesn't like that, so its pretty tame, but still lots of footage of vampires biting people etc, so be warned!

Deleted Scenes for "Why We Hate Bi Men"

It was really hard to get the tone right for this video. It's a difficult topic. I tried to inject as much humor as I could in the first draft and it didn't quite work. I had a whole thing with the "bisexual coat" lady which I put in to try to diffuse the tension of such horrible biphobia, but in the end it felt wrong in the context of all the really tragic stuff which came after, and I felt like maybe we needed to take the Cosmo article a bit more seriously because it is just so messed up!

Bloopers for "Why We Hate Bi Women" & "Transphobic Conspiracy Theories"

Hey, time for bloopers! The voices in the background are my partner Ada and my friend Kitty. Ada often helps me with filming, whereas Kitty (who is also our neighbour and in our bubble) helped us out just the one time for the Harriette Potter video while we were filming in our landlord's basement (that chair is way too nice to belong to me, lol!).

New video: Monosexuality

In case you missed it, new video just dropped!

Also, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone. Thank you so much! My channel blew up in this last month, my subscriber count has almost trippled. I have really severe anxiety so these things always scare me somewhat, but everyone has been so lovely and so kind, I feel so lucky to be in this parasocial relationship with you all lmao! Thank you for making this last month something so special and wonderful. I am now able to devote so much ...
