I'm too delicate for that stuff.

It's not just Google. There are so many "movie numbers" guys on YouTube. Variety has stiff competition these days. They are all reporting what a financial disaster this film is. Everyone is talking about Bezos, the financial insanity, and what does it all mean. Some people are boycotting Amazon to show their disgust with the flagrant spending. Lots of analysts are concerned about the bandied term "curry favor." Clearly, Bezos could care less about any loss. I've seen interesting commentary from a few non-biased reporters (hard to find these days). The gist seems to be, left voters have absolutely no interest whatsoever, while most right voters appreciate her as the wife, but don't show much interest, either. They care much more about him than they do her. Makes sense to me, since many people say they can't understand her when she does speak. LOL. I always find that comment funny.

As Jimmy LuSaque always says in Hacks, "Not good!"

In my long life, I have never seen or experienced the avalanche of social media laughter and disdain befallen a famous-person-subject of a documentary. Not just an extreme joke in America, but around the globe. It truly is amazing. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to leave the house, or ever show my face in public again. I don't think Melania cares, because she got what she wanted: money, and a lot of it. With this, and her re-negotiated pre-nup before returning to the White House, she and her blood family are set for life. Laughing all the way to the bank has a way of shielding one from public ridicule, especially if you are a narcissist.

Cole Blue is so sexy. I think I've mentioned him before. His cock is beautiful, and his precum is abundant. Love these horny young men.

In the above photo, he's got some 70's hustler appeal. Kind of reminds me of Cowboys and Cowgirls, formerly on 53rd, from a far away Galaxy now.

Amazing that he was forthcoming with the truth. We live in a time when truth no longer matters, especially to the desperate. People say whatever they want, if it gets them what they want. Shame is gone, along with accountability. I mean, to say you've been doing Thai massage for eight years, when you're lying, and probably charging a significant rate...what kind of person is that?

I'm reluctant to post this because I can't stand the gay podcaster, but here is Hudson talking about his and Connor's "cock sock." https://www.youtube.com/shorts/-OonVQkhp2Y

I think my computer is spooked. I glanced at this thread and shortly after, an unusual porn video ended up in my feed. I don't know the actors, but one of them says he's gay-for-pay. Maybe some of you know these guys? Both men are not extremely hung, but damn, their foreplay is incredibly hot. I think this may be the best butt munching on film I've ever seen. https://gayforfans.com/video/rocky-vallarta-fucks-aspen-ass_pen15-1763044758/ I'm sorry this isn't a massage rec. If either one of these guys wanted to give me a massage, I would jump at the chance.

Considering she was cancelled by the Tony Awards, her orchestra seats are almost sold out.

I have little-to-no faith in articles like this anymore. American media is a for-profit business that relies on eyes and subscriptions. I probably regret the post, except it is something to talk about in our community. Even though life offers plenty of pain to endure, the gay men in my circle seem to be very happy, or at least content. We know there are people in the world who hate us, who are afraid of us, but we've always known this. And yet we still have managed in our lifetime to make enormous strides. I can only imagine how the haters feel about our collective strength. Fear. This notion that you can somehow convert some straight human to be gay has always seemed laughable to me. A porn fantasy run amok among porn watchers. Sure, there are predators among us. I'm sure there are some younger folk, going through bad times, who could be vulnerable. The world can be a harsh and cruel place. There seem to be more and more children who are being raised by gay parents, and not just in NYC. These kids are doing quite fine, if not fantastic. They are showing the world that there is more than one way to love another human being, and create a fabulous family. As long as racism exists, I guess we can expect homophobia to exist, too. Life is an ebb and flow, and we just have to keep moving forward with our heads held high.

Most young female porn actors get asked about their parents watching. I don't think most young actors who do nude sex scenes are in a hurry to share the work with their parents. I couldn't imagine asking my father to watch me simulate a gay blow job on national TV. A straight father would have to be incredibly cool to deal with such a thing, and most dad's are not cool, especially ones living in Texas, assuming that's where he's from. I don't have any specific numbers, but I assume most straight men have no interest in this show. Hell, I know a few gays who have not seen it yet, and they can afford HBO.

Thank you for doing that. My subscription is a gift, attached to someone else's account. I have no idea what that does or does not allow. I'm glad you were able to do it.

I'm sorry about that. They are cheap bastards, for sure. The article is rather long, and it's a copyright issue to copy. I wouldn't want the board to incur a fine. The article starts by talking about the success of Heated Rivalry, so maybe someone on the internet will copy it or blog about it. I guess it may depend on where you live. Young people in NYC seem very cool to me. I suspect a lot of experimentation goes on here. How else do find out who you really are?

nytimes.com WWW.NYTIMES.COM A worrisome OpEd in today's New York Times.

Looks like Jonathan Groff's last performance is March 29. 2026. I did not realize that Sarah Hyland is now playing Connie Francis. The company is saying a National Tour is being launched June 2027. I wonder if Jonathan will have anything to do with that. It also appears that Matt Magnusson has gone on for Jonathan with success. Someone posted a recent video from the show, with Matt, and the quality is pretty good. Gives you a sense of the electricity in that room.

Another movie that has a lot of buzz that I did not enjoy. I thought the thing would never end, and then the ending was so bizarre. Apparently, a lot of people think it's master film-making. I felt like it burned in a whole in my brain. I'm not familiar with the director's other work. This review pretty much summed it up for me:

I'm sure professional stylists are throwing very expensive clothes at the boys. Those are guaranteed eyeballs, and what designer doesn't want that kind of publicity? I agree, but the song is really getting on my nerves. Oversaturation with pop-music can be a killer. It took awhile before Heartstopper got my attention. Initially, I got the impression it was about twinks, and I had little interest. It seems to me, Heated Rivalry is a whole other animal.

This from publicist Waylon Tate:

Jacob Tierney was so smart to go with Crave. America production doesn't have the balls to do justice to Rachel Reid's work. Friends in show business tell me that new execs at HBO have turned anti-gay. It seems like a miracle that HBO had the nerve to buy in. I hope this success is promising for the future.

The guy makes me melt.

I found Connor's story about his waiting tables one day, and then getting hired for Heated Rivalry the next.

I didn't see this live, but I think Connor made tuna melts for the Today crew. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/yedyX6O1t0I

I don't know the Black anchor, but I appreciated his honest reluctance. When I heard he bothered to watch all six episodes, I was impressed. There are a surprising number of straight Black men blogging about the show on YouTube. The Today Show had Connor stay for several segments, with various anchors. He got some nice air time, and I'm really impressed with the way he handles himself. It's nice to hear that he is tight with his mother. I was a bit surprised to hear that his father has not watched the show. I suspect the parents may be divorced, and Connor's favorite is not his father, but I'm guessing.

I think this Seth Myers promo spot got limited play. I thought it was cute and clever.
