Happy last day of Pride! 🌈 STAKEOUT is a project that's very close to my heart. It can only be described as CARRIE meets X-MEN with a Black trans woman in the lead role (1/13)

The SNL Homocil sketch has obviously not aged well, but I really do think about the little gay boy saying "who wants crème brûlée?" so often.
