Well, hello fellow hunker-downers. Coming to you high on half an Ambien. (giggling) My doctor prescribes ten milligrams when I can’t sleep. I get so wound up over all this! But I only take a half of it otherwise I eat everything in the house.

But look. [holds up a brown journal with a clasp] Another way I calm down is [clasp unopens] is I write … in my journal … [holds up the open journal, which has notes and pictures of flowers and cute animals] And I put little, [turns the page to show off more stickers that include pug dogs] stickers, I (giggling) decorate!

I’m a high school cheerleader stuck in a sixty-five-year-old male body. My Violette stickers came today [holds up a sheet of fruit and flower stickers]. Look! Aren’t they beautiful? [holds up more stickers of old-timey portraits of children] I think I fell out of the womb and landed in my mother’s high heels.

[holds up stickers of cats] I just like things pretty. I think that’s why homosexuals were put on this earth, (emphatically) just to make things pretty. [holds up stickers of rabbits] Rabbits~

Episode 7 - Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes | Queer Up with Lily & Robin

Robert Downey Jr really wanted to play a gay Sherlock Holmes and he so nearly did. In this episode, we look at the somewhat maligned Sherlock Holmes films directed by Guy Ritchie, starring Downey Jr and Jude Law. We discuss why the first one is such a delightful romp and how the two leads play with the intensen queer subtext to great effect. We spend less time talking about the dreadful sequel, except to dig into the behind-the-scenes drama that forced Sherlock deeper into the closet.

CW: Mentions of homophobia, drugs, misogyny
