- Hi! I’m Andromeda (she/they) and thank you for watching! I hope you enjoy!
Hey! The update on the queer resource may still take longer, my mental health hasn’t been very great lately and I’m struggling to find the motivation to work on that. I love the project, but it takes a lot of energy that I don’t have at the moment.
Hey all!! I’m now selling some merchandise to help raise money for my transition and I recently released the first edition of the queer resource so feel free to check those out! Links are included below.
First, let’s talk about the merch! I’m selling them through two different sites, both of which will be linked below. There are stickers, pins, and magnets which I’m selling through Redbubble - they’re available with several different LGBTQ+ flag options, although I know I haven’t covered them all so if you notice your flag missing feel free to comment it below and I’ll work on adding them in! And I’m selling shirts, sweaters, and hoodies through Teespring; they’re available with a couple different designs including the channel logo, but I’d be interested in expanding the flag options and designs, so if you have anything you’d like to see feel free to leave a comment below suggesting it!!
I mentioned that I’m saving money for my transition but that’s not the only thing the profits will go towards. My plan is for 80% of the profits to go towards saving for my transition, 10% towards funding the channel, and 10% to LGBTQ+ charities. I’ll leave a link to a google sheet below to show how your money is being divided for whatever product you may chose to get, as I want you all to have full transparency. I know the amount towards charities is low at the moment but I intend to increase that amount as I get closer to my goal for raising for my transition. I’m also going to be putting up a poll here each time there is a significant amount of money to donate and let you all choose from a few charities as well as suggest any you see fit!
I’m really excited about this! I was interested in ways I might be able to raise for my transition and bottom surgery through the channel, but I didn’t want to just ask people to donate as I’m aware of the influence that content creators can have and I don’t ever want that to be used to my advantage. I’m happy about this way as it allows me to give back to you all in the form of merch as well as to give back to the queer community as a whole by donating to charities and organizations. I hope that you enjoy this as well and if you have any questions or suggestions feel free to comment them below!

Now let’s talk about the queer resource!! I want to make sure to convey to you that it is in its very beginning stages of development; I have made significant progress on it but it is a time consuming process and between school, work, running this channel, and other responsibilities I don’t have much of that. The resource is a working document, I’ll be working it on my free time and adding and updating information and resources as it develops. I just want you all to be aware that any missing information and resources in the document right now is likely due to that. For instance, there is a section on queer terminology with definitions and resources and answers to certain questions, but I’ve only been able to go through A-terms and that section with 5 definitions took several hours. But, if I’m missing a definition from that or one of the resources I’ve included and checked over conveys a stereotype that I was unaware of or maybe there is information about those terms that does not appear in those resources and is important to show, feel free to let me know!
I want this document to be as accurate as possible and to not convey any kinds of stereotypes or misinformation so your feedback is always welcome. Thank you for your patience as I’ve worked on developing this and I hope you find this resource useful!

Fun fact! Even in today's Germany you can get a special ID if you're trans, that details your pronouns and basically orders people to call you the correct thing until you can legally change your name and gender marker
Never been more proud to be German
Off to germany I go for this only reason
any germans wanna adopt a genderqueer kid? I dont cost much dw
that beats the laws here in America. where they have that in Germany, Florida just passed the don't say gay bill
Omfg i want that but I'm not in Germany 😭
Yessss get yourself a queer hairdresser! My new one is an openly gay man, and I was hesitant to show him the haircut I actually wanted (in case my mom somehow saw since she doesn't know I'm trans) and he literally pointed to his own hair, asked me if that's how short I wanted it, and somehow managed to give me the exact haircut I wanted without ever seeing the real picture.
Also, thank you for changing the loud noise warning sound. It's a lot more comfortable to listen to now.
“I didn’t commit arson I committed ardaughter” HELP IM DYING I CANT
When you're working on a story, and the main character's little brother is FTM nut you're not going to explicitly say it- you're going to make the readers find it
*Kinda like Spiderman Homecomi-*
Hey I'm just curious, I accidentally disliked your comment, but then took it away, do you still get a notification that it happened? I hope not cuz it happens pretty often to me and I don't want to make people feel bad😅
@@DoodlesnDragons I don’t think it does! 💗💗
You're fine! It didn't show on my notifs, so-
Awhh that's awesome, thanks dear fellow hoomans! :3
Wait what can you explain plz?
the last one was so accurate-
also, Shakespeare was queer
and so were so many of his plays (Mercutio and Benvolio in R&J were very gay for example)
Antonio is obv hella gay for Bassanio in The Merchant of Venice
@@fruiteend i'm not too sure i can name a Shakespeare where there aren't gay characters tbh
I feel like Shakespeare was secretly a flaming pansexual just tryin to vibe and write queer fics until the European government got in his way 🤔
@@hellismurky that's incredibly valid hahahha tbh same
Literally i was reading r&j and I thought: homosexuals?
Wow... Andromeda is such a beautiful name for someone. It honestly made me smile and gave me a warm feeling when I read it. 10/10 I need to look at other celestial bodies to see if there are any names that also resonate with me as I love space and am still trying to figure out my name
my name is Mars, you could also consider a planet! :o)
I mean... Not my name exactly but I made it so my initials are C.M.B.R as in Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation so I feel like that counts (also briefly went by Mercury and Halley)
@@marswantstodie ^-^ I'm happy with any celestial body as long as it fits. I like that with Andromeda you could use the nickname Andy. I'm just poking around to see if there is anything that fits better.
@@omniscient.nescience That's really cool! I would definitely say that counts 👍
I know a fellow Enby kid named Saturn
My ex-gender still misses me, but her/his/their/it's aim is getting better!
...
Her/his/their/it's aim is getting better!
See, it's funny because gender is terrible.
Was this a Gravity Falls reference?
@@ratchild6966 probably
Lmao as a Gravity Falls fan this was GOLD
now, this-
this is beautiful :)
@@ratchild6966 yes
the little german boy one's got me man- they got me laughing for 10 min each
Cannot stress enough how much of a comfort these videos are. My family is really homophobic/transphobic and it’s really taking a toll on me. So watching these videos always make me feel better, so thank you for that
After going through the day of my mom explaining to me how I would marry a man and I am supposed to do 'it', yeah this was serotonin for me 💞
1:33 when i saw that it also had Jewish rep I started crying. i almost never see positive jewish rep, and I've never seen a queer jewish character. it was so nice to see that someone out there cares about us queer jewish folk.
have seen andi mack?
that's actually very realistic
none of the
every one nods there head and praises you flith that we have
If you’re a musical person I highly recommend falsettos it was written by a gay jewish man before and during the aids epidemic and is about Jewish and queer characters and family
I know this is late-ish but Dead End: Paranormal Park has a Jewish achillean trans man!
i really appreciate the new tw/cw sound- i really disliked the loud beeping, and this one is a lot better imo :]]
Also, I'd just like to quote Luz from the Owl House when it comes to the LGBTQ community: "Us weirdos have to stick together!" (I think it's from the first episode btw-)
3:28 - 3:33 can confirm, she's speaking the truth; thanks dad for introducing me to the GO series, your child has been a whole lot queerer since then 👌😎🏳️🌈✨
Also, the one right after it : HOW'D YOU BLOODY KNOW???? THE TRUTH ABOUT THE COLOUR GREEN IS REVEALED 💚 😩🏳️🌈✨
When you want to buy some gay books but where you live it's very homophobic and you're in the closet:
༎ຶ‿༎ຶ
SAME omg - when I went on a trip with my family to a bigger city, we went to a bookshop and I legit was 'just looking' for about 20 minutes, then as soon as the rest of my family wandered off, I grabbed the book I'd been eyeing up the whole time, paid with a book token and hid the book in my day bag. That was months ago, and I still don't think my parents know 😂
A suggestion: make your own innocent-looking dust covers?
Finding what I call "closet-safe" books is something I've recommended to some of my friends. Books like Iron Widow or They Both Die At The End, where you can look at the cover and read the synopsis and there's no indication of the gayness within.
@@somebodycooliguess1597
That's actually a really good idea!
@@Mr_Sunshine-_ not foolproof, though, especially if they're the type to check your things. Upon reflection, maybe the closet-safe books are a better bet
the favourite colour one got me.
same
Same. I felt called out.
same😩
it's not wrong tho
Y’all! I just found this really awesome mg novel about a girl who falls in love with a non-binary person. It’s so cute, and I’d highly recommend it if you’re looking for some nice enby representation. It’s called “Spin with me”. 😊💗
Thanks for the rec! I just looked it up, looks adorable.
OMG that sounds awesome 🤩
3:34 I actually said green tf, who else did and got scared??
The one that asked for your favorite color, I literally said green outlook lmaooooo. The I squealed which laughter when they called me gay lol. It was perfect
I finally pick a favorite colour and just after I've picked it..
I also said green and was like "wth, how?!" 😂
Gender, I haven't even met her
Omg same
haha same lol
Gender? Is that some kinda fruit or something? I don’t think I’ve ever had one of those.
It's a good day when Gremlins United posts a video ☺
Damn right
Thank u for the ones about books! I’ll add them to my to read list
Andromeda (btw very nice name) your videos are great and you can see how much effort you put in with the pronouns and trigger warnings and all that good stuff and I hope you are doing well and if not that you get through whatever you are going through
Thank you for putting that loud sound warning
I almost always wear headphones when watching youtube and don't appreciate being suddenly blasted with loud sounds
3:42 well they have spoken
Hello 👑Majestys, Queens and Kings👑 of the world-wide!! Hopefully you('re) having/had a nice day/night!! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
At 344, the green one-how do they know
HOW DO THEY KNOW
FR THOUGH like I watched that part and felt so called out
I like other people telling me you are gay to me online even though I know I'm gay... It makes me feel validated and seen since I am in a cupboard in real life
I've never been called out more in my life than at 3:33
Right off the bat, the Jerma reference indicates this will be a banger upload
The "I don't know my fruits" one really got me and I love it
I actually liked the higher pitched trigger warning on your last videos a bit better, they were easier to hear
i WILL enjoy, thank you very much!
Thanks for the sound TW, I have time to actually check my volume instead of frantically lowering it in time before it comes lol
THE FIRST ONE YESSSS!!
For anyone wondering, the show is called our flag means death. It is about The gentleman pirate (stede bonnet) and blackebeard being gay and doing crime
Hope everyone has a wonderful day! Be sure to take care of yourself 💜
Also…grape gang!! 🍇💜🍇
grapes 🤢
Thank you for changing the tw sound! It's a good idea but the old sound was kinda annoying and a bit stress-inducing, this new one is perfect :)
Hey yall! how ya doing? im doing good. quick reminder that you are all loved, and i want you to take any meds you need to, eat something healthyish, drink water, and get some sleep! if you have anything you wanna talk about, be it personal or interest-based, im here. Additionally, quick reminder that you are incredibly valid, your gender and sexuality should never have to be hidden, and you deserve all the love in the world.
love yall!
Thank you for the loud sounds tw I hate it when complications go from super quiet to super loud without warning
The last one ahahaha (really sad of course) when the theatre class came up :DD
thanks for making these videos, they seriously help when all i want to drink is iced depresso espresso
6:36 literally me yesterday, exactly. Being gay is expensive ;,)
3:34 STOP I SAID GREENKSDHJKAEGH HOW DID THEY KNOW
Hello, I'm Ivy, and I'm here and queer
Hey Ivy! 💜
@@ravensky6 hi
Hi Ivy
@@freya002YT hi river
Hey Ivy, I hope you're having a good day/night 🙂
3:40 I actually did not expected to be called out like that
Gremlins United really the wagyu steak of lgbtq tik toks
Loved this comp! I just wanna say that I really like that you put volume warnings before the loud TikToks! I’m not very fond of loud noises, (as most people aren’t), so getting a warning to turn the volume down is great. ❤️
Thanks for another great compilation! Just a couple of time stamps for myself: 7:48 (Mona Lisa) and 11:54 (transvestite pass in 1920s Germany)
3:41 How did they know I said green?!?!
When I saw the title, my first reaction (besides of course clicking on what I’m sure will be an amazing video) was: lmao what gender. And yk what? I stand by that statement.
The don’t say gay bill is so dumb. People follow it blindly without understanding it, too. If stuff like that keeps happening here in the USA I might just move to England or something.
Agreed my friend, if this keeps going on I might just end up moving to Canada
I really appreciated this compilation
First of all, fantastic tiktoks, thanks for putting this together! Second of all- I’m a younger person who is facing a lotttt of body discomfort/dysphoria, my birthday is coming up and I don’t know how to ask my parents that I want a binder. They both support the LGBTQIA+ community, but I’m still very nervous. How should I tell them?
Several of these: (says the viewer is gay)
Me, the genderless aroace who has zero interest in romance or the s-word: 😐
I mean, they're still funny, but... ya know.... :p
@Nana - I... thought "queer" was the neutral term used on all of us LGBTQIA+ people & "gay" meant "homos**ual" only. 😐
yooo, i love u
2:06 this is literally my struggle every day lmao
“Oh mein got… this is un club full of yassenqueenen!”
I have never laughed harder in my life
3:34 I'm dieing I actually responded with green
Thank you for the warning for loud noises ❤️❤️
Thank you so much for the sound warnings:)
Ahaha the last one was so funny!
6:07 Yoo I’m currently reading a book called “Fortune Favors the Dead” and this is literally it 😭 such a good book tho would love to see more similar
3:33 wow... didn't expect that to really work🤣
3:35 Bruh I- I have three answers I give, green, red or blue, and I said green what-
6:20 please tell me they’re being serious because I absolutely need to read that
I literally just made a book shopping list from this video, I’m gonna be so broke, but it’ll be worth it though 😎🤩
8:58 Can someone tell me the name of the podcast please?
3:41 A’IGHT, NO NEED TO EXPOSE ME LIKE THAT
WOW that last one lmaoo
1:07 if you’re struggling to find a way to watch tv without supporting a bad company, two good things to do are 1. try and support shows created by queer people, 2. look into indie/web series; they’re much more separated from corporations than tv and 3. try piracy.
I dont have any social media, so i wouldn’t know, but is Andromeda doing ok? She hasn’t posted in awhile and I’m kinda concerned? Not by a lot, just curious as to where she went. If you know, replying would be great.
i just wanna say i really really appreciate you putting a warning bc loud noises/sounds ❤
I wanna add something to the Magnus Herschfeld that I heard on the History is gay podcast about him:
He once lead police officers into a gay bar to show them, that they weren't bad (you know what I mean) and it worked, the officers were positively surprised
.... it's better if you listen to it yourself as my memory is not the best
my girl i love your videos but also i have a slight suggestion!! when you put your content warnings for loud sounds, flashing lights, whatever you put content warnings for, can i suggest also adding a timestamp to skip to? that way the people know how far to go to avoid the thing!!
aside from that, great work, keep it up!!
Gotta be honest sapphic urban fantasy Sherlock Holmes sounds rad I want this
Another awesome video! Thanks for vid Gremlins United you are so cool
“Just to be safe, low brass sit six feet apart”
No way i’m getting called out like this 😭
3:39 IM QUIVERING HOW DID THEY KNOW
Dyed my hair green, now I have fully transitioned.
0:20 the funny thing is that I just got done reading that.
I place my gender down for one second and it's fricking gone
Thank you for a break im still trying to find it
the favorite color one called me out tf lol
3:33
NAH I SPAT OUT MY MARSHMELLOWS CAUSE I SAID SAGE GREEN
My brain refused to think of colors 😭
lmao, nice MORP sign at 0:33
6:29 im the exact same way, with books and shows🤣
the funniest part about the video around 13:10 is that buchanan was believed to be a closeted gay man 😂
6:05 YES! YES! YES!
please. I want this. I need this.
1:09bLMFAOO THIS ONE EXACTLY 😭😭
1:44
this happened to me once but in reverse. i sprained my wrist so for a little bit i had to walk around with it just kinda hanging there or it would hurt
Hey there! I was wondering if I could ask for a swearing/nsfw warning on videos if it’s not too hard for you to do? The people I live with don’t like swearing and I don’t like wearing headphones unless I need to (I have spd), again, only if it’s not too much trouble ❤ also I love the channel name so much, my friend group and I (who are all autistic) call each other gremlins and the name made me do a happy wiggle dance-
Dana Terrace js adorable
14:46 the theater one is so funny especially as a theater kid-
March 13 was my birthday- So they did a stream to help queer kids on my birthday- 😊 (I’m talking about the TikTok with Dana)
Yes
“Oh my got! Zis club is full of yassing queening!”
7:48 Oh snappppp...
6:54 mark zuckerberg?
Bestie we miss you 😭
"let's try to tell the truth" sounds like my boyfriend trying to intimidate me even though he's 5'6
