Start your sublight engines, it's time to lightsaber duel for your life. Everybody in a galaxy far, far away is queer (except maybe Anakin), because we say so. Join Mel, Jess, Ollie, Noah, and Klaudia every week for some critical analysis of Star Wars through a queer lens, followed by increasingly cursed games about Star Wars content from the dark corners of the internet. May the Force be with you, and DON'T kriff it up.
