Admitting you have a ghosting problem is the first step, right? A self-described “serial ghoster,” whom we’ll nickname Casper, recently became aware of his bad habit and asked fellow members of Reddit’s r/askgaybros community for help changing his ways.Casper wrote:I only now just realized I am a serial ghoster. It was only after a guy called me out on my bullsh*t, and after ghosting so many guys on Grindr just for the validation that they would have potentially hooked up with me, that I realized that I am a coward and have a ghosting problem. For too long I have felt that ghosting was the easy way out, and that since I was being ghosted, it was okay to ghost others.

Zack Sharf Tom Hiddleston told Lily James during their conversation as part of Variety’s “Actors on Actors” series, presented by Apple TV+, that the Marvel Cinematic Universe must “reflect the world we live in.” That’s why the actor is so happy his Disney+ series, “Loki,” finally made it clear within the MCU that his eponymous anti-hero is bisexual.“Back from my early days of researching the character in the ancient myths, the identity of Loki was fluid in every aspect and in gender, in sexuality,” Hiddleston told James when she mentioned that Loki is the first explicitly queer character in the MCU. “It’s a very ancient part of the character and I think I thought about it. … It hadn’t emerged in the stories we’ve told.

I’ve lived in New York, Philadelphia, LA, and San Francisco—two blocks from the corner of Castro and Market—so I’ve seen my share of well-funded, high-style Pride celebrations. I wondered what I’d find at the second annual Pocono Pride Fest in Stroudsburg, PA (population 27,000), close to where I’ve been holing up since the pandemic began.I was there with a message: My super-progressive Episcopal church not only “accepts” LGBTQ people, we celebrate them.

In the swing state of Pennsylvania, Republican primary voters have nominated a gubernatorial candidate who, shockingly, is even to the right of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas: State Sen. Doug Mastriano, who is going up against the Democratic nominee, Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro, in the general election. Mastriano is a far-right, ultra-MAGA Christian nationalist and conspiracy theorist who continues to promote the Big Lie and falsely claims that the 2020 election was stolen from former President Donald Trump — and a combination of Democrats and establishment Republicans are cringing over the nomination.

Despite being the star of blockbuster hits like The Matrix and John Wick, Keanu Reeves seems to be more notable for the sexuality-related rumors surrounding him. Many fans have questioned Reeves’ decision to stay unmarried at the age of 57, which leaves most of them wondering: is Keanu Reeves gay?Despite an all-female dating history involving stars like Sandra Bullock, Winona Ryder, and Claire Forlani, fans can’t seem to shake the idea that Reeves might be hiding something about his sexuality.

While the pandemic put an enormous strain on the film and television industry, things are finally getting back to where they used to be, but things are even gayer!With Sapphic vampires, queer Pride and Prejudice retellings, reboots of queer classics, and so much more, this Pride Month may just have a little something for everyone.While the original versions of Queer as Folk took the LGBTQ+ community by storm, the original incantations truly only showed a very white, cis-gender side of the queer community, which the new reboot aims to change. In the same fashion as the original, the reboot will be a very queer show that doesn’t stray away from serious topics, including what seems to be a Pulse-shooting inspired plot, but promises to center on queer joy.Fin Argus, Devin Way, Johnny Sibilly, Ryan O'Connell, Candace Grace, and Jesse James Keitel will lead the reboot, with Benito Skinner, Kim Catrall, and more set to guest star. While only time will tell the impact this reboot will have, let's hope it captures queer magic like its predecessors. A girl next-in-line to fill her monster hunting family’s shoes finds herself in love with a girl who happens to be a vampire. If you are a former Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan like myself, then your ears probably perked up, for good reason. The trailer for the show sets up a war between two families destined to be enemies with the sapphic yearning amped up to the max, making this one another to add to the watch list.While Halloween is not for some time, sapphic star-crossed lovers are timeless.One of the most anticipated queer films in recent years, Fire Island takes Pride and Prejudice and lets it take a huff of poppers while wearing only a jockstrap dancing to Lady Gaga, which frankly
