My Weekend Crush

Well, now isn’t this sweet? Pixar has released its first animated project featuring a gay main character. If you have Disney+, then you should definitely check out the adorable short “Out.” It marks the animation studio’s first official gay leads (so, clearly, no those Wishful Thinking Gay Moms in “Finding Dory” don’t count). And, well, it’s sweet. And there is a dog. And it is just in time for Pride Month. Bottom line it made me laugh and smile and tear up but finally in a good way, and well anything that does that these days is a definite win. Now, more LGBTQ content, please Pixar and Disney. We’re ready for more of our stories to be told. We’ve been ready for a while. Happy safe, healthy and righteous weekend, all.

p.s. Be sure to watch through the end credits for a sweet little bonus.
