Netflix debuts its new limited series DAHMER- Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer, the latest project from super-producer Ryan Murphy who casts his longtime collaborator Evan Peters in the titular role as the notorious gay serial killer.The project’s announcement was met with a mix of excitement—it does star icon Niecy Nash, after all—and trepidation.

While, yes, the series purports to center Dahmer’s “underserved victims and their communities,” it still begs the question: How many times must Hollywood re-examine and relitigate the story of this convicted murderer and cannibal?Prior to Peters, the infamous role has been played by a number of actors, including Ross Lynch in the unsettling “origin story” My Friend Dahmer.

But one of the earliest and most notable scripted portraits of the killer was 2002’s Dahmer from filmmaker David Jacobson, which featured Jeremy Renner in an early star turn.Well before The Avengers or his Oscar-nominated role in The Hurt Locker, the independent film represented a major breakthrough for Renner, 31 at the time of its release.

The dark, demanding feature was a big risk for the young actor who was largely unknown at the time, but it’s one that’s certainly paid off considering the blockbuster career he’s had since.Unsurprisingly given the subject matter, the 20-year-old film is a tough watch.

Life Closet door bustdown National Coming Out Day Company Dr. Bronner’s is officially the purist, queerest soap company out there and we love to see it
its iconic label filled with woo spiritual teachings about love, unity, and the “Moral ABCs” in teeny tiny print.The company — founded in 1948 by Emanuel Bronner, a third-generation soap maker whose German-Jewish parents were murdered in the Holocaust — is actually a family-owned business, and its CEO David Bronner recently came out as neither completely straight nor male.“For some time, I’ve thought it would be a good idea to ‘come out’ and celebrate that I’ve considered myself ‘about 25% girl’ for quite a while,” Bronner wrote in a blog post on National Coming Out Day, noting that they use he/him and they/them pronouns.“I realized that I wasn’t ‘straight,’ ‘gay,’ or ‘man’ or ‘woman’ — but incarnate soul here to serve and get down, and that my toxic insecure aggressive masculinity was doing violence to my own feminine nature and soul,” they added.Bronner said they first realized their gender fluidity during “a dramatic LSD and MDMA mediated initiation into spirit world in Amsterdam in a gay trance club” in the winter of 1995. They have since celebrated this part of themselves at the Burning Man psychedelic art festival by “cross-dressing” and “expressing [their] androgynous nature and inner woman.”“While I identify as ‘relatively straight/masculine’ I also feel ‘relatively queer and feminine,'” they said.
