This elder gay assures you: There is no scenario, outside of science fiction, in which I discover that I'm a grandfather.

Woke up at 3 a.m. last night to find a Milk Dud–sized turd next to my pillow.

Less horrifying than finding a horse's head in one's bed, perhaps, but horrifying nonetheless.

I've assigned my chief deputy (below) to the case and have every confidence that the culprit will soon be apprehended.

My two biggest beefs with #Picnic:

1) William Holden's depilated chest.

2) The (usually) brilliant Rosalind Russel plays Rosemary as if she were reprising her role as Sylvia in The Women.

Stop looking around for a leg to sink your teeth into, Roz. Paulette isn't even in this movie.

Years ago, when I was more financially secure than I am now, I decided to bid on this pic of a nude Harpo Marx in an online auction, for shits and giggles. My limit was $2.000.

The photo sold for $5,850.

You folks have way too much perversity and money on your hands.

I contemplate the terms and conditions of their marriage more often than I should.

Today, many online liberal/lefties would call their arrangement "living their truth."

I still call it the closet.

Bugs Bunny: Drag Pioneer.

Hats off to my fellow gay pal in college who noted that Sade resembles Bugs Bunny in drag. I've never been unable to see the resemblance since.

My pal wasn't making fun of Sade. Not at all. Bugs in drag is hot!

Four suburban upper-middle-class white MAGA men venture beyond their comfort zone on a canoe trip and encounter a tribe of rural white MAGA men along the way.

Hijinks ensue.

I'm 60 years old. I'll not be telling you five classes I took in college, because I don't fucking remember five classes I took in college.

So much of what I see on social media is regurgitations of abstruse theory that folks fetishized in college. I would suggest moving on.

Ok: Physics for Poets.

Brandon deWilde had to stand in a kind of makeshift trench for many of his scenes with Alan Ladd, so as to appear shorter than his costar.

How's come none of you ever told me that Mrs. Olson was married for 50+ years to the psychiatrist from Bringing Up Baby?

Why must I learn these things through googling, as if I were some stranger on the street?

I do appreciate the shout-out to Edith Evanson's cane-using character in The Big Heat.

We all have justifiable objections to the glorification of Woody, but this movie would be a most fun addition to Noir Alley's roster.

An original production still of Joel McCrea taking a shower hangs on my bathroom wall... next to the shower.

That's how much, baby.

I sometimes worry that most folks who didn't grow up in the 1970s have no idea how much those of us who actually did grow up in the 1970s DESPISE the 1970s aesthetic.

TRUMP's Justice Department.

TRUMP's Justice Department.

TRUMP's Justice Department.

For the love of Goddess, can we just start calling the DOJ, and other federal departments and agencies, what they really are? I've no doubt Trump wouldn't object. Just ask the Kennedy Center.
Breaking news: The Justice Department has issued subpoenas for Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey as part of an investigation alleging that they are impeding federal law enforcement officers’ abilities to do their jobs in the state.
