What story are you looking for tonight?
Come in. Take your coat off. This is a small, hand-tended shelf of queer films and television, with notes, symbolism, and honest recommendations from someone who has stayed up too late thinking about all of them.
Say a title, a feeling, a decade, or the exact ache you can't name. I've been up late thinking about most of them.
If you're looking for something to watch tonight...
The projector is warming up. A pick will be here soon.
Something you'll still be thinking about next week.

No TV series on the shelf yet. Check back soon.
Some stories were never allowed to say the words.
A weekly close reading of a film carrying queer subtext, coding, or an alternative reading worth naming.
A new undertone is coming soon.
Each feature is selected by the curator to highlight a different way queer audiences have found themselves in film.
How are you feeling tonight?
Tell me what you need, not what you want to watch. I'll take it from there.
Slid onto the shelf this week.
Ten titles opened the shelf. Six more are already waiting for a slow Sunday afternoon to write about.
Wander the aisles. Each shelf hand-picked, never algorithmic.
A series worth staying up for.
A new series is warming up.
The channel is between broadcasts. A series will be up on the shelf soon.
Pull up a chair
A signal from the projection booth.
Occasional dispatches: a video essay, a prop recreation, a small electronics build inspired by a film. This corner is reserved, and it will light up soon.
"Every film here is one I've stayed up too late thinking about. That's the whole criterion."
The curator
