@spaceprincejulio, the actor-writer-director brings an otherworldly yet stately perspective to all of his work—and we just feel lucky he decided to grace Earth with his presence.Born in El Salvador, Torres moved to New York City to attend The New School and quickly became a staple of the Brooklyn alt-comedy scene. After working on The Chris Gethard Show, he joined the writer’s room at Saturday Night Live where he leant his distinctive voice to some of the most beloved, queer-themed sketches in recent memory, like the unforgettable “Wells For Boys” and “The Actress,” in which Emma Stone stars as Deirde, who brings real commitment and gravitas to her role as “the woman who gets cheated on in a gay porn.”Since garnering attention for his unique SNL sketches, Torres has gone on to create a visually arresting hourlong comedy special, My Favorite Shapes, HBO’s instant-cult-comedy series, Los Espookys (which finally has a second season on the way), and now a wildly original children’s book, I Want To Be A Vase.  A post shared by Julio Torres~* (@spaceprincejulio)One gets the sense that these diverse yet distinctly “Julio Torres” projects are just the beginning of the artist’s long career, and one can only imagine what he might create at the height of his fantastical powers.

Buzz Lightyear movie.The 89er Theatre sparked controversy after stating that they would ‘fast-forward through’ the brief kissing scene in Toy Story spinoff Lightyear, posting a sign as a ‘warning’ to customers.They displayed a poster in their window – which has now been removed – following the film’s release, which has been overshadowed by criticism over the kiss between two female characters, one of which is named Hawthorne and voiced by Uzo Aduba.‘Warning’, their poster began in large letters, ‘Attention parents: The management of this theatre discovered after booking Lightyear that there is a same-sex kissing scene within the first 30 minutes of the Pixar movie,’ they continued.‘We will do all we can to fast-forward through that scene, but it might not be exact.’The theatre signed off by apologising for ‘any inconvenience’ the ‘late discovery of this scene causes.’Residents of Oklahoma were both shocked and disappointed to see the sign in the cinema’s window, with 42-year-old Patricia Kasbek, 42, saying she initially thought the sign was a joke.She posted a picture of it on social media in jest, but grew outraged upon learning that the sign was real.‘After calling the theatre, asking them to remove the warning, her call went to voicemail.‘I told them that it was completely insulting for them to censor a same-gender kiss when they’ve never done this to an opposite-gender kiss,’ she told NBC News.She added that she ‘never see a movie at this theatre while under this ownership,’ branding their behaviour ‘cruel’ and ‘bigoted.’According to NBC affiliate KFOR of Oklahoma City, the sign was gone by Monday afternoon after supposedly being put up over the weekend.Alex Wade, deputy director of LGBTQ+ advocacy organisation
