The hurdling heartthrob recently wrapped up his outdoor season in Budapest, Hungary, where he competed in the inaugural invitation-only Ultimate Championships. The field was limited to the crème de la crème: only 2024 Olympic champions, 2025 World Champions and the top-ranked performers in 2026 were allowed to participate.

I’m too fat for the hot gays, too thin for the chubby chasers.” These are the thoughts that have been plaguing Nick (Nicholas Molencupp) for most of his adult life. But in the upcoming indie In Between, he’ll have to realize it’s time to stop waiting around for someone to choose him—he’ll have to choose himself first.

USA TODAY via Reuters Connect Donald Tr*mp Jr. is having a rough week. After a scathing ProPublica report, readers learned that the president’s son’s 3-day destination wedding was largely funded by a Russian oligarch. The sh*t didn’t take too long to hit the fan. Even Melania had to send out an emergency statement claiming she had nothing to do with Umar Kremlev, the Putin-associated pal of Don Jr. and his bride Bettina Tr*mp (née Anderson.) But apparently, all that was just the tip of the iceberg.

In the tech world, we’ve seen two of the most successful out execs in history, Tim Cook and Sam Altman, embrace Tr*mp and fetter him with praise. Cook even attended his inauguration, alongside other tech oligarchs such as Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg.

In that show, the true infidelity was emotional: despite seemingly happy married lives, both ASL interpreter Floyd (David Harbour) and weatherman Clark (Jason Bateman) gravitate toward each other as their personal lives—and sexualities—become ever more tangled and complex.

As we’ve reported before, campaigners have been working with authorities in San Francisco to bring bathhouses back to the city. The gay hotspot used to have several bathhouses for queer men. However, the arrival of AIDS in the 1980s led to legislation shutting them down. City health codes were changed in 2021 to pave the way for the return of bathhouses. The following year, zoning codes were changed to allow such venues to return to gayborhoods in the city. In 2024, police codes were updated.

Born & raised in London, MNEK started writing songs from a young age, and when he uploaded them online, was surprised to finding them garnering attention from other artists he admired. His raw talent was undeniable and soon, bigger and bigger names came knocking. Perhaps you’ve heard of Kylie Minogue?

But his latest endorsement feels not only worse than usual, but almost out of character. In a desperate bid to stop Texas from turning blue, Johnson is standing ten toes down behind his decision to endorse House candidate and firearms YouTuber Brandon Herrera.
