Have a good midweek, my friends and enemies! Did you know it’s time for March Madness in the NCAA and also here at Autostraddle? If you’re an A+ member, Natalie will even let you help sow the seeds of parentheses with your favorite couples! And then when you come back from doing that, I made a Pop Culture Fix just for you!


+ Okay, Melora Hardin is in this new Hallmark movie called Love, Classifiedwho appears to be gay due to the gay promotional photos and also this description: “Romance novelist, Emilia, returns home after a long absence, to reconnect with her children who, too, are finding their own way to love… Taylor (Katherine McNamara) matches a woman who changes the way she has always thought love.” This woman is Arienne Mandi, who you know as Dani from Gen Q! GAAAAY.

+ This copy for this P-Valley season two casting news is so good it gave me chills. Shamika Cotton and Miracle Watts join the cast as Farrah and Big Bone, respectively. Looks like Farrah and Mercedes will “make an unlikely connection.” Big bones? Well: She’s “a fighter and biter with sky-high ambitions.” She’s an exuberant new presence to The Pynk with a molasses-thick body, knees of steel, and a tongue deadlier than a draco. 😳
