What Are Lesbian Nails? The Femmicure, Explained
I, like many, grew up on “The L Word.” The series centered around a group of lesbian and bisexual-identifying friends in LA and subsequently shaped my understanding of what it meant to be a queer woman.

lutruwita/Tasmania’s エミエミ (emi emi) releases a golden ray of sunshine with new single ‘tabero’ – Backseat Mafia
Rough winds may shake the darling buds of September and biblical floods may invade the hinterlands, but the dulcet sounds of Japaneser/Australian artist エミエミ (emi emi) emanate a golden ray of unfiltered sunshine across the southern isle of Tasmanian.
