In gay culture the “Cody” in Sean Cody functions as an honorific title not unlike “Khan”

stealthily checking out Jeffrey from blockbuster as generational rite of passage….
A lesser known gem that Patrick Stewart starred in was Jeffrey. One of the first gay-themed films I watched as a teen. Stewart, a straight man, played the role of a gay man in NYC with a profound fear of acquiring AIDS so perfectly.

The National Museum of American History has an exhibit right now on Filipino American history. It includes the suits that Filipino immigrants bought using the money they earned as agricultural laborers. Photos from Mina Roces's article "These Guys Came Out Looking Like Movie Actors': Filipino Dress and Consumer Practices in the United States, 1920s-1930s"

i’ve had this blurb from Ask Polly taped to every desk i’ve used for the last 10 years
My career advice is just do it. Make it. Say it. Bring it to life. Whatever it is. The crazier your idea, the bigger risk, but bigger reward. There are plenty of people who warn, even threaten, to keep you in control. The world is filled with the you shouldn't do that folks. They're not your audience, and the world is bigger than their echo chambers. You don't need their acceptance or permission. Just yours.

nice to see a double-breasted, strong shouldered suit on TV, esp in a glen check and what appears to be an english woolen flannel. very old school.
Vivek Ramaswamy is every bit the scummy blowhard that he looks. And he’s going to lose.
