Gillette does an ad for a transgender boy’s first shave
May 27th, 2019 under Admirable People. [ Comments: none ]


In a time when several members of our government are trying to silence transgender people, Gillette is giving a them a public forum.

Samson Bonkeabantu Brown recently transitioned and he is finally ready for his shave. A rite of passage that has been passed down between a father and his son for many centuries and Samson’s story is no different. His father showed him how to do it and Gillette caught that big milestone.

When he was done we got to see his close shave, but it as not as close as the relationship the two men have. Nothing can be closer than the love of a father who is proud of son no matter what.

Brown wrote this about his story, “I shot this ad for Gillette and wanted to include my father, who has been one of my greatest supporters throughout my transition, encouraging me to be confident and live authentically as my best self.

“With the help of Gillette, I was able to share an important milestone in every man’s life with my father.

“This moment overwhelmed me during filming and again today seeing the ad since it’s been launched. I’m keenly aware of how blessed I am to be able to exist in this world being supported by my family in ways that all too often many of my trans brothers, sisters, and siblings who exist outside the binary are not always as fortunate.”

“I am confident that this ad will encourage many of my trans siblings and fill them with the knowledge that our existence in this world can be filled with the love and support we deserve.”

Hopefully, by normalizing a special moment that most dads share with their sons, haters will realize transgender people are just like them. We are all human and should love each other for who we are as a person. Nothing else matters at the end of life.

Who is skinnier: Donald Trump or the Sumo Wrestler?

Donald Trump is in Japan and he handed out the first U.S. President’s Cup to the Sumo Grand Champion. Looking at this side profiles of Asanoyama and PORTUS, I could not help but compare their body sizes. It looks their winner is skinnier than our loser. What do you think?

Enrique Iglesias’ twins giggle with him!
May 25th, 2019 under Enrique Iglesias. [ Comments: none ]


Enrique Iglesias‘ twins are getting so big and now they know how to laugh at things. The laughter of the two 17-month-olds is the sweetest sound. No one knows that more than their proud pop. Therefore, the singer will do anything to make Nicholas and Lucy giggle. Even if that means looking like the dorkiest dad in the world. Which he does, but who cares his kids are loving almost as much as him.

AP Bio flunks out of NBC
May 25th, 2019 under NBC. [ Comments: none ]


NBC is still deciding on the fate for a few of their show and AP Bio is no longer one of them. The show’s creator’s Mike O’Brien broke the sad news, “I’m intensely sad to announce that AP Bio will be ending after this season. This has been my favorite project of my life and that’s because of the amazing writers, cast and crew. As most canceled shows probably feel, I think we were just hitting our stride and everyone was still loving the work, so this is very hard. We have 4 left to air and they’re 4 of my favorites. Plus 22 others are on Hulu (for now) and http://nbc.com. Please check them out and tell a friend about the show and tell the people who worked on it that they did a good job!”

Ever since his tweet, #SaveAPBio has been trending on Twitter. Hopefully, someone will save the show, but I doubt it. Its ratings were more remedial than advanced placement. Then again, it would be nice to see it on FX where it could be a little more risque.

The Village (I hope they pick it up), Abby’s and Emeny Within are still waiting to find out if they will be back or not.

It is Doom Patrol vs a gigantic rat and a colossal cockroach!
May 24th, 2019 under Alan Tudyk, DC Comics. [ Comments: none ]

The season finale of Doom Patrol is streaming on DC Universe now and everything has been leading up to this moment.

Last week, when we left off, The Doom Patrol left the Chief (Timothy Dalton) after he told them that he created them. Since then they have gone their separate ways. Rita (April Bowlby) and Negative Man (Matt Bomer) are living together. She is teaching acting to students. While he is seeing how long he can handle having the negative energy outside of his body. Jane (Diane Guerrero) is on her own, but she is secretly getting help from Robotman (Brendan Fraser), who is watching over her. Finally, Cyborg (Joivan Wade) is back with his dad.

While we watch them survive by themselves, we see how The Chief created them in flashbacks. It is not going to be easy to watch Vic become Cyborg.

Then they are all going to hear a song nonstop (not going to tell you which one it is, but it is an earworm) that is going to bring them back together. The Chief asks them for a favor, but why would they help him? After all, he destroyed all of their lives. Eventually, they will have to give in because Mr. Nobody (Alan Tudyk) is planning to destroy them all. He will have a little help from a gigantic rat and a colossal cockroach (Curtis Armstrong)! Which is my nightmare so I will not be sleeping tonight.

It is going to be an epic battle and maybe not every one of our heroes is going to make it to season 2. Which they better get because this is the best superhero show on television. Tell me what other show has a mass orgasm, an openly gay character, lots of sex and cursing, and doing other things no show in the genre would dream of doing, Well they dream of doing it, they just can’t.

That is what makes DC Universe a must have app, they can be as bad as they want to be. Next week, they introduce us to Swamp Thing. I am one episode in and I am already loving it.

I just want to add, it was nice that Tudyk finally got an episode of his own. You can tell he has been having fun all season, but in this episode, he really went for it. Which is why he is a hidden comedic treasure.
