Gay Twitter Roundup: Pedro Pascal in Cannes and Lorde's Nonbinary Tea

Andrea Marks Joseph READ TIME: 3 MIN.

X (formerly Twitter) is where everything happens: International news breaks, inside jokes that we'll reference for years are made, stan tweets shape the culture, and niche hot people are introduced to the internet at large.

Gay Twitter is a million times funnier and even more creative; we're experts at crafting queer joy from life, no matter how dark and twisted our reality has become. So, we take it on as our loyal duty to the gay people of X to share their incredible work, and celebrate what everyone's been up to.

We've been living for Pedro Pascal looking hot and having fun in Cannes at the film festival. We reacted to the surreal open casting announcement from the upcoming "Hunger Games" prequel film. We learned that being Team Jacob in our "Twilight" era was a celebration of the couple's "butchfemme tea," and we were confronted with a gender neutral use of the word "manager," which we'll be thinking about for a long time.



Join us as we look back at the pop culture moments that have shaped our time being queer online and showcase some of our favorite celebrities' shenanigans as they make pop culture history in real time. Learn about the dangers of "carrotmaxxing," and witness the way an underwear selfie from Bad Bunny has driven the "cut???" community wild.




Queer Hollywood is history in the making!

Yeah, we're talking about celebs like siblings Lux and Pedro Pascal at the Cannes Film Festival. Simply by living their glamorous lives and being their magnificent selves, queer celebs and their allies thriving and shining wherever they go makes our world a richer place.

College sex comedy "Overcompensating" is making its mark on TV history through queer pining and the genius casting of Adam DiMarco, and it's true... Alexander Skarsgård is, arguably, mothering.

Pedro Pascal having the time of his life at Cannes is giving us life



And now: A moment of scrolling silence for the pop culture history moments that made us who we are, and made the world a better (sillier, more iconic, and colorful) place to be queer.

The "Glee" cast will always be famous, but so will that Chlöe Bailey tweet. We're thankful for the "Butchfemme tea" of the "Twilight" era's Team Jacob, for the priest who adored Cher, for whatever's going on between Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, for the Lady Gaga Oreo collab, and for cunty Mercutio, who will always be an icon.










Thirst tweets make the world go round

Bad Bunny's underwear thirst trap has truly driven people wild:




For your tweeting pleasure, we present to you: Out actor and Jonathan Bailey (now officially "The Daddiest") wearing his tiny "Jurassic Park: Rebirth" glasses to seduce us into watching the movie, Austin Butler in his upcoming film "Caught Stealing," and possibly the horniest tweet ever sent about a climbing wall.




Lorde's new album has everyone talking – about her "expanding gender," about the new songs, about the various ways they're clocking her "nonbinary tea."




Recession indicator, or surreal dystopian movie marketing tactic? Perhaps both.

We wish everyone who will be submitting themselves as volunteers for the upcoming "Hunger Games" movie cast a very "may the odds be ever in your favor."





Catfishing as Addison Rae on eBay... icon behavior. What isn't icon behavior? Carrotmaxxing, apparently.

We don't know if "gender neutral manager" will catch on, but the sentence "carrottmaxxing sent me to the ER" has immediately been added to our group chat lexicon. And of course, we are always thinking of the good, hilarious people who run Dianna Agron update accounts.



Bye!
