The Power Rangers have been around for decades, but this fantastical action franchise keeps on “mighty morphin” into a more inclusive place.Take, for instance, the introduction of a new, non-binary villain, ominously known as the Death Ranger. The grimly grinning warrior is set to debut in the Boom! Studios comic, Power Rangers UNLTD Death Ranger #1, the latest adaptation of the colorful teen super-team’s adventures.

Hi JakeMy husband and I have been together for 11 years and our love is still very strong. There’s just one teeny tiny but also very LARGE problem. I am the, um, girthiest guy he’s ever been with. In the beginning, this wasn’t as much of a problem. With enough booze and poppers (and lube!), we were able to have great sex for hours at a time. Then about a year ago, he gave up drugs and alcohol entirely. Being sober has helped him tremendously… except when it comes to our sex life. He says he can’t bottom anymore because he can’t relax and it causes too much pain. Obviously, I don’t want to hurt him, but I also can’t go the rest of my life without ever topping again. From Top to NotDear From Top to Not,I want to first congratulate your husband.

Unbreakable pays tribute to key LGBTQ+ figures throughout 20th-century America, honoring “the perseverance and power of people who would not be defeated and could not be broken,” to quote the official release.Next weekend, the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington presents the East Coast premiere of the epic choral work from Andrew Lippa, which comes nearly a decade after his I Am Harvey Milk, another epic choral work that paid tribute to the titular trailblazing LGBTQ politician and gay martyr from San Francisco, originally commissioned by a collective of seven gay choruses from all over the U.S. (Lippa is also known for his Tony-nominated and Drama Desk Award-winning work as a musical composer and lyricist for The Addams Family and The Wild Party.)In addition to the full chorus, the Unbreakable premiere will feature two lauded soprano soloists, the Helen Hayes Award-winning vocal dynamo Nova Y.

When Covid-19 cases were exploding across the United States in early 2020, public health officials remained in the dark, in large part because of major errors in developing a test for the illness. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was the manufacturer of the only Covid-19 test then available in the United States, and there were blunders in the design and manufacture of the test that the agency mailed out in February 2020. This, coupled with the Food and Drug Administration’s initial refusal to allow qualified laboratories to develop or use their own Covid-19 tests, meant that testing was all but impossible to access in the United States in the early weeks of the pandemic.

India Willoughby has called out the BBC over comments one of its producers has made on social media, asking how the statements made by Keaton Stone ‘fit under BBC impartiality and values’.

She penned: ‘Hi @bbcpress @BBCTheOneShow – your producer @kerastase is calling trans people “bad guys” who “do things to women” and brainwash kids – while planning what will clearly be a hit piece demonising the trans community.

CHICAGO — As drag brunch came to a close at a Mexican restaurant here last Sunday, the performers conga-lined their way through the crowd of about 40 party people who were just this side of tipsy on Brunch Punch. But this was no standard drag brunch; it was a Taco Bell Drag Brunch. And that wasn’t a microphone in the lead queen’s hand; it was a Grande Toasted Breakfast Burrito.

In the days leading up to the finale, the ovations grew longer and louder. Fans blew kisses, made heart shapes with their hands and screamed the host’s name. The outpouring signaled the end of “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” a daily hour of daytime escapism that had reached its peak in less contentious times, when Beyoncé, Madonna, and Barack and Michelle Obama were happy to show off their goofiest dance moves side by side with the show’s star before an audience of millions.

A post shared by Club MUSICA®️ (@musicanyc)I promised you some NYC gay nightlife fireworks a while ago, so I’d now like you to all stand back with goggles on as it comes true — and then add disco boots to your ensemble and head into the heart of the mayhem.Due to the social longing that’s afflicted the post-lockdown crowd, plus the reality that empty spaces all over town are dying to be reinvented, there are enticing new options for partying queens who might even look up from their Grindr for a second.For starters, XL was a gay dance club attached to the OUT Hotel on West 42nd Street, but the gays ultimately ran for the hills. The hotel is now, simply, Cachet Boutique Hotel NYC, and in 2019, the XL space also turned straight, re-emerging as a Playboy Club, though the timing of such a place at the height of #MeToo was bizarre, even if they were supposedly going for a more feminist approach.

During Saturday Night Live‘s 47th season finale last weekend, the sketch comedy stalwart offered up a fitting farewell to Kate McKinnon, one of its senior-most repertory players and—for the better part of the last decade—the heart of the show.A welcome reprisal of McKinnon’s Colleen Rafferty character, the cold open once again saw the brusque alien encounter-survivor share stories from her extraterrestrial experiences, which were somehow way more traumatic and strange than anyone else’s.At the sketch’s conclusion, she agrees to go live with the aliens permanently, saying her goodbyes: “Well, Earth, I love ya! Thanks for letting me stay a while.” Through tears, McKinnon turned to camera to issue one final “Live from New York, it’s Saturday night.”Weird, warm, and intrinsically queer, the sketch was the perfect send-off for the performer who had a knack for goofball characterizations and off-kilter impressions, which made her a near-immediate star when she first stepped onto the stage at 30 Rock in April 2012. Ten years later, she leaves the show with a lasting legacy, including two Emmy wins for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy (the first cast member to do so).But perhaps most importantly, McKinnon was the first openly gay woman to join the cast of the long-running series, and she made the show a better place simply by loudly and proudly being herself, which is why we are including her in this year’s Pride 50.

The police department in Miami Beach, Florida, covered one of its cars in stripes from the LGBTQ Progress flag and rolled it through the Miami Beach Pride Parade last month, as the department’s Instagram account proudly proclaimed at the time.Comments on that Instagram post reeked of homophobia, as you might expect, with people saying the Pride-themed police car was “too much” or “a waste of taxpayers’ money.” (Someone else called for a “straight people parade,” as if that’s not every other day of the year.)But on Reddit’s r/lgbt forum, a photo of the car sparked a different backlash, considering the “Don’t Say Gay” law Florida just passed.“Surprised this is allowed in Florida,” one commenter said of the MBPD’s rainbow-hued police car.“Feels extra performative because of that,” another person replied. “Actions speak multitudes louder [than] the pride flags.”A third person wrote, “Short-circuit the state’s legislature when you call in a ‘don’t say gay’ alert on the police.”  A post shared by Miami Beach Police Department (@miamibeachpd)Related: New study reveals police stop LGBTQ people at a much higher rateOther people, meanwhile, noted the torturous history of LGBTQ populations’ interactions with law enforcement.

great white shark chasing after its prey – directly to where he is swimming.London-born photographer Euan Rannachan is on a mission to help break down the terrifying stereotypes of great white sharks.The 36-year-old adventurer, who also owns company Be A Shark, has been organising cage-diving trips in Guadalupe Island, Mexico, where he takes tourists cage-diving in shark-infested waters.In one video he posted in April, Euan gives nerve-wrecking sense to viewers of what it is like to be eaten by an apex predator."Could not love my toothy friends more," Euan teased in his post.The massive 13ft shark is seen going after a bait, which is attached by a hemp rope with no hook, as it emerges from deep water among other small fish.When Euan's team pulls the bait closer to the camera, the sea beast makes a rapid turn and opens her jaw, ready for a bite.Unfortunately the shark misses the target and ends up nearly hitting Euan.When she turns around and heads back to the bait, the photographer realises how lucky he is to get so up close to a great white shark.Speaking about how he felt in the water as the shark approached, he told Daily Star: "Every time I am in the water at the island it's always exciting. You never know what you might see, and each time its a little different.

The recent revelation that swoon-worthy Bridgerton actor Jonathan Bailey (accidentally) wore a modesty thong out to the pub after a day of filming in the buff had us thinking:Are modesty thongs the unsung heroes of the entertainment industry?For those who are unaware, the modesty thong—sometimes referred to as a modesty pouch, or patch—is a crucial piece of modern movie magic. The barely-there undergarments are frequently used on sets when actors are filming nude scenes, a solution for those who are, well, modest and prefer to not let it all hang out.Since consent is king (not to mention the increased need for on-set intimacy coordinators), these skin-colored pieces help keep everything in check.
