    The short film 'They/Them' by Bo Beaufill.
    That speech Ash gave at the end of the movie made me cry. I felt so validated. Like someone could explain my gender in a way I understood, but could never communicate. I'm watching it for the fourth time, and I'm on the edge of tears once more. I love this film so much.

    Amory.....The film "Love Simon" I know that many have said that it's just another teenage RomCom but there were so many scenes that I said, "That happen to me". For me it wasn't a moment...it was almost the whole film.

    "I'm supposed to decide when and where and who knows and how I want to say it" floors me every single time. It's such a great movie adaptation of a great book.

    The song 'The Village' by Wrabel makes me cry almost every time I watch its video. The first three times were really intense.

    I just finished watching the final season of OITNB. I am soo heartbroken. I am going to miss the show so much. I can't stop crying.
    I saw rumors about a spin-off and I really hope they are true.

    Fun Home... when the author, Alison Bechdel, related how she felt like comic relief in the story of her parents.

    The ending of Field Of Dreams, when Kevin Costner's character plays catch with his dad. I miss my dad so much (he committed suicide), I can't watch that scene without choking up.
