this is the real redraw I wanted to do, I never liked how Aaron (or the other mini-monsters tbh) looked so the best choice for his design was to scrap it and start over. I also wanted to connect him more with Andrew's design and give him a better 'defense' vibe because he's...a backliner..so: better armor, a hitting stick, more snakes, and a shared color palette

Adam Lambert defends Harry Styles - and describes the ostracism the music industry gave him for kissing his male bandmate in 2009...just about when 1D was being formed.
He thought his success on American Idol gave him freedom and protection but it didn't. He prepared for backlash from the public but instead -
“But what surprised me is the industry got mad... because truthfully, I wasn't doing anything offensive [by kissing a man onstage].
But it was a miscalculation.
I was put in the corner. I didn’t get, like, dropped or anything, but they weren’t gonna listen to my ideas at that point. My credibility was shot. I was a liability."

every single tony scott movie is queer coded. i don't think every action 80s movie is, and i actually don't think rambo is that gay. commando is pretty gay, that is not a new take. as far as queer coded villains go, mark l. lester, who directed it, has spoken openly on it. the lethal weapons movies were written by shane black, who some people (me, for the first time right now) have described as "only ever making homoerotic christmas movies". beverly hills cop 2 was directed by tony scott. the issue isn't top gun having a normie amount of male gaze mistakenable for gay longing, it's people not drawing gay erotic beverly hills cop fanart. so we agree on that.

This time... I went away for an interview. I had a lovely time talking with Jinkwon about his group Newkidd, his acting career and what he enjoys cooking when he's finished filming.

In today's example of industry closeting and harassment of lgbtq artists:
David Archuleta - a formerly-closeted singing show contestant who came out in 2021, after considering suicide - says his manager received an angry email from the concert booker because he mentioned his LGBTQ identity in his 11.29.22 concert -
"We have some very upset patrons that I will [be] dealing with today. I would hope that in the remaining concerts that [Archuleta mentioning his private life and lgbtq identity] would not be allowed."
Would not be allowed?! How, exactly, do they want his manager to enforce this? Would the usual simple intimidation suffice, or is extortion in play now, or perhaps physical force the answer?
Please clarify, entertainment booking agent. And fuck all the way off.
If a nobody booking agent feels free to do this so openly - can you just IMAGINE the pressure that members of, say, the biggest band in the world at the time, would hsvr been/are under to stay closeted?
Archuleta has a great response - in part:
