Here’s a little new millennium nostalgia for your day. Remember the 2002 movie Scooby-Doo? You know the one that put those meddling kids into a live action camp fest that perfectly cast the characters Velma (Linda Cardellini), Fred (Freddie Prinze Jr.), Daphne (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Shaggy (Matthew Lillard), and the voice of Scooby-Doo (Neil Fanning)? Yea, that one.While the film itself received negative reviews, it was a box office success that has garnered a cult following throughout the years.

Views expressed in The Advocate’s opinion articles are those of the writers and do not necessarily represent the views of The Advocate or our parent company, Pride Media.If you asked us to think of a timeless sentence, an evergreen sentiment that would be relevant no matter what period of history it was said in, we might offer, “It’s a really tough time to be in the LGBTQ civil rights movement.”It was a tough time in the ’70s, during Anita Bryant’s antigay “Save Our Children” crusade.It was a tough time in the ’80s, when President Reagan’s loudest comment on the AIDS epidemic was silence.It was a tough time in the ’90s, when media coverage of the murder of Brandon Teena widely misgendered him and he was buried with a headstone reading “sister, daughter, friend.” It was tough in the 2000s, when we saw an avalanche of constitutional and statutory bans on marriage equality. It was tough even in the 2010s, despite what seemed like a cascade of legal and legislative victories, including the defeat of North Carolina’s anti-transgender “bathroom bill” — as the murder epidemic of transgender women, especially trans women of color, grew more and more dire.And now, half a century out from “Save Our Children,” here we are again. This year alone, there have been hundreds of anti-LGBTQ bills introduced in state legislatures, of which 117 are explicitly anti-transgender.It’s always been a tough time.

It’s been a bit of a tense week. Homophobes are sending Pride decor up in flames, storming drag queen storytime events, and planning to take over queer events by the Uhaul-full. That’s why, for this week’s bop round-up, we’re going to cool things down a bit.

A post shared by ADAM LAMBERT (@adamlambert) At a time when Pride can sometimes feel a little sanitized and corporate-friendly, Adam Lambert has posted a short and sweet message to his fans and followers to remind them where his preferences lie.“I like dick,” he said at the start of the Pride Month video posted to Instagram.Appearing to answer queries from fans, he then responds to someone asking, “Are you gay?”“Where have you been?” responds the singer. “I’m really gay.

“Asking for help is the most important thing you can do.” Micah Scott is the Chief Executive Officer of Minus18, an organisation that supports LGBTQ young people in Australia through preventative mental health support, education, advocacy and leadership development. Scott grew up near Victoria’s Dandenong Mountains and moved to Melbourne when he was 20 years old. He found life in Dandenong rather isolating: “I was the only gay kid that I knew… I’m not aware of anyone in my social circles from back then who is queer themself,” he said. These days, when not working, Scott enjoys spending time with his friends, his partner, his chosen family.

Manuel Betancourt The title of Rose Troche’s film, “My Fake Boyfriend,” may be clunky, but it captures the outrageous premise of this latest gay romantic comedy. When stuntman Andrew (Keiynan Lonsdale, of “Love, Simon” fame) is stuck in a toxic relationship with a self-absorbed narcissist, his best friend Jake and his girlfriend Kelly (Dylan Sprouse and Sarah Hyland) decide the only way to break the cycle is with a white lie: the creation of a new (fake!) online boyfriend.

Controversy sparked in North Carolina this week as a photographer was made by government order to remove his innocuous photo of two men kissing at a Pride parade from a museum exhibit.The picture from photojournalist Grant Baldwin features now-husbands Justin Colasacco and Bren Hipp sharing a kiss after Colasacco had proposed at Charlotte Pride in 2019.Wholesome enough, right?  A post shared by Grant Baldwin (@cltphotojourno)Wrong!Baldwin was forced to take down his photograph by order of Gaston County Manager Kim Eagle, who cited “differing viewpoints in the community.”Related: Psychotic school board official has homophobic meltdown while resisting arrest and OMG you guysA further statement from a Gaston County spokesperson specified that “the museum is government-funded, and as such, it is important for the items it shares to be informational without championing political issues.”You know, the political issue of gay people doing gay things in a gay space.President of Charlotte Pride Clark Simon told local news, “It is a feeling of disappointment in the county in which I live to take a section of the population and deem them not appropriate to all of the people attending the museum.”A twist of the knife to it all is that the exhibit has been open since May, but for some reason, Eagle waited until the very middle of Pride month to order the photo pulled.Here are a few of the reactions online:Queer people existing isn’t political.

Gemma Collins has announced that she's taken on a new position of becoming her nephew's "showbiz manager".The 41 year old, who became a household name following her stint on ITV's The Only Way is Essex, often includes her brother's son Hayden Collins in many of her social media posts.And now it looks like Gemma wants to make sure she carves out a place in the spotlight for him too.Jumping onto her Instagram story, Gemma posted a photo of herself with her arm over Hayden's shoulder.Wearing large sunglasses she captioned the snap: "I am Hayden's showbiz manager any brands modelling agencies collabs movie directors email mark@tm-media.co.uk.The GC has often shared just how talented Hayden is and provides fans with glimpses of him dancing on her social media platform.But although Hayden seems to relish the spotlight, Gemma also has another nephew that is rarely seen online.In April, Gemma left fans stunned when she showcased her nephew Caine who joined her backstage on her The GC's Big Night Out tour.Sharing a short clip on her Instagram story, Gemma told her fans: "I've got a very VIP guest tonight, my eldest nephew Caine, that you don't get to see very much."She then panned the camera around so spectators could see Caine who gave a thumbs up.Gemma then added: "He's so grown up, but he's a bit shy so he's not on the Gram much, but I am so happy he is here."Last month, blonde bombshell Gemma shut down any rumours of her potentially joining an all-star version of ITV's I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!Sharing her insight on the show, Gemma said she wouldn't take part in the programme again.Speaking to The Sun she said: "I haven’t heard about it."I just don’t feel that I need to go to extremes anymore on TV for people’s

If you tuned into the Thursday’s January 6 committee hearing then you already know it was basically a Mike Pence masturbation fest.

Bennie Thompson, who chairs the committee.“Vice President Pence understood his oath of office was more important than his loyalty to President Trump.

, everyone was accepting. Still, when I thought about giving wrestling a shot, I believed that a sport often associated with macho men may not accept someone like me.  And when I expressed my interest in wrestling to people, there were some mixed perceptions from ex-work colleagues, or people I socialised with.

Massachusetts Catholic school can no longer call itself Catholic after a local bishop declared that its Pride and Black Lives Matter flags were incongruent with church teachings.In April, Bishop Robert McManus issued a statement opposing Nativity School of Worcester's display of Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ+ Pride flags.  By doing so, he expected the school to comply and remove the flags, but administrators have refused.Now, McManus has forbidden the school from identifying as Catholic.On Thursday, the Diocese of Worcester posted a decree about Nativity School on its website."The Nativity School of Worcester is prohibited from this time forward from identifying itself as a ‘Catholic’ school and may no longer use the title ‘Catholic’ to describe itself," McManus declared.In an open letter published in May, he claimed that "These symbols (flags) embody specific agendas or ideologies (that) contradict Catholic social and moral teaching." His issue with the school's Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ+ Pride flags is that they send a message of support."It is my contention that the 'Gay Pride' flag represents support of gay marriage and actively living a LGBTQ+ lifestyle," McManus notes.While seemingly invalidating the social justice movement, he explains his opposition to the Black Lives Matter flags.

Hyland, meanwhile plays Kelly, another of Andrew's friends and Jake's longtime girlfriend!Lonsdale, Sprouse, and Hyland all have some truly amazing best friend chemistry together on screen, and for the record, I'd like to make it clear I'd love to be a part of this friend group, IRL, please.

Love can be confounding. It can be surprising and elusive; there’s no guidebook. That’s one reason why we devour romantic comedies: They’re funny but neat stories about how people get together, a process that’s terrifyingly vulnerable in real life. For Keiynan Lonsdale, best known for playing romantic lead Bram in 2018’s tender high-school romance Love, Simon, the genre has been professionally but also personally significant.

Last weekend, droves of people descended on a 15-acre park in northeast Los Angeles for an afternoon of picnicking, mingling, cheering on drag performances and a puppy costume competition, and more. Known as Dyke Day LA, this annual Pride gathering takes a homespun approach to a month typically packed with corporate-sponsored parties, parades and concerts; one organizer estimated the crowd at about 1,500. Since its first iteration in 2007, it has gone from a scrappy Eastside alternative to the spectacle of West Hollywood’s Pride celebrations to an essential — if unofficial — event on the city’s Pride calendar, open to “dykes of all genders.” (According to the organizers, that means everyone but cisgender men.) The name asserts that a term once widely taken as a misogynistic and homophobic slur can be seen as a positive, liberating label.

Fyodor Dostoevsky once said, “A society should be judged not by how it treats its outstanding citizens but by how it treats its criminals.” Now, Matt Gaetz appears to be taking those wise words to heart.This week, Gaetz revealed that, should Republicans take control of the House in November, he plans to launch an investigation into jail conditions, particularly of people being held on charges related to the deadly January 6 insurrection.“In the minority, we’re very limited in the tools we have to compel responses from the Department of Justice,” he told reporters. “If we’re in the majority, I do believe the Judiciary Committee is the appropriate place to use compulsory tools to get those responses.”Related: Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene team up to be extra horrible togetherGaetz, along with several GOP lawmakers, including some who sit on the House Judiciary Committee, says he’s concerned that accused insurrectionists are being subjected to harsh jail conditions as they await their trials.We’re sure his sudden worry for the wellbeing of American inmates has everything to do with compassion for his fellow man and absolutely nothing to do with that pesky ongoing federal investigation into his alleged sexual relationship with a high schooler.Related: Matt Gaetz’s future looking “not good” after latest development, says former federal prosecutorSpeaking of that investigation, this week Time magazine reported that Gaetz keeps a handwritten note from ex-president Trump encouraging him to “keep fighting” on display in his office:On the wall of the cramped congressional-office-turned-podcast studio, there’s a black-and-white poster for S.J.

Arya Stark was queer until her sex scene with Gendry in the final season. Arya was among the few characters to survive Game of Thrones, and before she fled Winterfell for new adventures, she lost her virginity to Gendry (Joe Dempsie). Three years on from the divisive finale, Maisie has revealed she was taken aback by the moment Arya slept with Gendry when they were reunited after several years. ‘The first time that I was surprised by Arya I guess was probably in the final series where she whips off her clothes and sleeps with Gendry,’ she chuckled.‘I thought that Arya was queer, you know? So… yeah. That was a surprise.’Back in 2019 after the episode aired, Maisie admitted she thought the scene was a joke due to creators David Benioff and D.B.

Texas Republicans have been targeting transgender folks in the Lone Star State for years, especially since 2015 when the U.S. Supreme Court handed down the Obergefell ruling legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide. It’s like, since they lost on marriage, the right-wingers decided to target the most vulnerable in our community.

GLBTQ Legal Advocates & Defenders (GLAD), which submitted the complaint on King’s behalf.“I’m thrilled to see this positive outcome,” King said in a news release. “I believe the new policies will keep others from experiencing mistreatment and will help people understand that transgender people are only seeking to be treated with dignity and respect like anyone else.”The complaint is the first known discrimination complaint by a trans elder against such a facility, according to GLAD.A staff attorney with the organization, Chris Erchull, said, “The model transgender nondiscrimination policy and public statement embracing transgender residents set a clear example for how such facilities can and should operate with respect to transgender older adults.”The settlement does not create a binding legal precedent, NBC News reports.
