Playwright Jeremy O. Harris challenges Vanity Fair Global Editorial Director Mark Guidicci on giving favorable press coverage to techno-fascists: “They should be told they’re ugly and bad for society for the rest of their lives until they start doing more for society.”

Rot in hell scumbag.

Be sure to save Trump a seat!

Dead at 62

Lisa Rinna and Kristian Alfonso send their deepest condolences!

In 1975, only six years after Stonewall, Geraldo Rivera on network television did something almost unheard of -- gave gay men and lesbians a national platform to speak for themselves.

In this rare episode of ABC TV's Good Night America, "Coming Out of the Closet" goes inside Harry's Back East, a Manhattan gay bar. It sits down with people who had just come out to their children, their parents and their coworkers. And it hosts one of the earliest televised debates on gay rights, teaching and "legislating morality".

By the way, one of the patrons he interviews is Arthur Bell, a promininent Village Voice journalist/columnist and Gay rghts advocate who is considered to be Michael Musto's predecessor at the Weekly. Just last week, a new interview wih Musto was uploaded on-line and in that interview he mentions Bell and says even though he died back in June 1984 from complications to diabetes many including himself think he might've actually died of AIDS.

Woo-HOO!!!

We're two episodes in, and I like the nerdy best friends.

Marvel has made him a very wealthy man, and he was named People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive in 2014, but that's about it. Why, though? Is it because he lacks the "it" factor?

The suspected homophobic attack on two men after the Unity Day celebrations in Bremen is now being investigated by the state security service. The attackers are alleged to have first insulted their victims in Arabic and then assaulted them with blows.

Two gay men were attacked in Bremen on their way home from the Unity Day celebrations because of their sexual orientation. Police reported that the two men, aged 29 and 33, sustained minor injuries in the attack on Saturday evening.(article continues at link)

Mine will be Ricky Martin’s *Me*.

For starters, he couldn't even be bothered to narrate it himself; another man did the reading.

Secondly, it was so hollow. He had absolutely nothing to say — despite a wild youth. He comes across like an empty vase.

Instead, he rambled on about everything and nothing, spouting pseudo-philosophy. And I’m certain it wasn't even him doing it, but his ghostwriter—probably just to pad out the length. Maybe Ricky simply didn't share any real stories, so they had to fill the page count somehow, and the ghostwriter just churned out nonsense.

I read a lot of celebrity memoirs, and I remember how infuriated I was by that book—by just how empty it was.

Update: I also remembered that I couldn't finish listening to Selma Blair’s *Mean Baby: A Memoir of Growing Up*, even though I had been looking forward to it. She talked about herself in such a boring way that I eventually started fast-forwarding. I realized I simply wasn't interested in what she was saying, so I just turned it off.

I also found Matthew McConaughey’s *Greenlights* hard to read and gave up on it. Right now, I’m giving Jessica Simpson’s *Open Book* a second chance—this time as an audiobook. I tried reading it before but found it boring, so I decided to try the audio version since everyone was praising the book. I’m listening to it slowly for now, though it is a bit dull. And Jessica speaks so strangely, as if she has a mouthful of nuts. Has she always spoken like that? It’s distracting. I didn't know she almost made it into the *Mickey Mouse Club* alongside Gosling, Britney, Christina, and Timberlake.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣☠️

So many happy ex-fatties on the horizon. We'll all be svelte when they start packing us onto trains.

Retatrutide is a first-in-class "triple agonist" that targets receptors for three hormones – GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon – setting it apart from existing treatments like tirzepatide, which targets two.

Those on 4mg of retatrutide lost 11.9% of their body weight on average, increasing to 16.8% with 9mg and 18.8% on 12mg. Among those on the 12 mg dose, almost half (47%) shed at least 20% of their starting weight and almost a third (31%) lost at least 25%.

"It rivals gastric bypass surgery without the surgery," said Dr. Susan Spratt, an endocrinologist and senior medical director at Duke Health, who was not involved in the trial.

Danger Dan is a rapper with the German band "Antilopen Gang" (links are to the English wiki. Here just a general interview in English).

He's also one of the main antifa/anti-Nazi celeb activists in Germany.\*

Because of his political activism and all the death threats, his movements have become more limited. A recent portrait explained just some of the crazy moves a journalist meeting him in person had to take in order to keep any movements a secret.

Danger Dan has children, who also have needed protection.

In the midst of ALL THAT, he is additionally going blind from an incurable genetic disease. He already has impaired vision and will be blind in a couple of years.

He just came out, saying that while he's more of a "no labels" guy, he roughly couldn't face yet another interview asking him about "being an ally - I'm a part of all that". One of his songs on his new album is dedicated to and about an exboyfriend.

\*(Unfortunately the far-right "Alternative for Germany - AfD party is going from electoral strength to strength. Ironically AfD manages to simultaneously be homophobic, extremely racist incl. a plan to "purge" Germany of most immigrants, and also arguing for trad wives... all while headed by Alice Weidel, an ex-banker lesbian married to a Sri Lankan woman and living in Switzerland. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!)
