This is a collection of hot/hung or humorous photos of actor/model Blair Jackson, who becomes Kelvin's nemesis in Righteous Gemstones Episode 1.4, "Wicked Lips."

2. "Do my abs look too big?"

2. Alfie looks contemplative on the green hills of home: Gateshead, just across the river from Newcastle-upon-Tyne.
Next to Alfie is Maura Bird (Jimmy Jones), a nonbinary, genderfluid actor who uses she/they pronouns.
Next to them is Robert Rhodes (Jimmy Jimmy), who is gay in real life.
Alfie is always drawn to LGBTQ people and guys who have played gay characters. I can't imagine why.

Fin attended Greenwood College High School in Toronto, where he took classes in acting and musical theater and starred in a lot of plays:
Troy Bolton in High School Musical
Wayne Hopkins in Puffs: an orphan boy who is invited to attend a certain school of magic (not that one).
Tyler in Public Enemy, about a family dinner "with a surreal twist." If I'm reading the French correctly, playwright Olivier Choinière is queer, so I imagine there is some gay content.
She texts back: "Leave me alone. I don't know you, and you're being weird." He doesn't leave her alone.
Two on-screen acting credits since:
The first episode of Welcome to Derry (2025): the snarly, critical older brother of "bury your gays" Teddy.
The short Grave in the Clouds (2025): a Jewish man (Steven Hobé) discovers that his teenage son (Fin) has written an essay denying the Holocaust, and introduces him to a survivor.

So at first I wasn't interested in The Chair Company on HBO MAX, starring Tim Robinson as Ron Trosper, a "job, house, wife, and kids" guy whose chair collapses during a Very Important Presentation, leading to more mishaps that threaten to destroy his Very Important Career.
He doesn't. He tracks down his assailant, Mike (Joseph Tudisco), a security guard at a local cafe. But Mike says "I was hired by a guy I'd never met. He didn't show his face."
Maybe they could work together to find him?
Wait -- why is Mike so interested in helping? There must be some gay-subtext buddy-bonding going on. I'm reviewing the next episode, 1.3: @BrownDerbyHistoricVids Little Bit of Hollywood? Okayyy.
Try putting that in the Works Cited section of your research paper.
Scene 1: Family Man Ron is at Game Night with his daughter, her fiancee, and her fiancee's parents. Hey, Daughter is gay. What a surprise -- I figured this show would be entirely heteronormative. Ulp, he gets a text: "No way out!", with a photo of him taken at that moment from the hall closet.
He pulls open the closet door, and a little person pushes him aside and runs out. Family Man Ron gives chase, but Partner Mike rushes up and explains "He's my guy, LT (Joe Apelian). I had him watching to make sure you weren't setting me up."
LT meant that there was "no way out" of his hiding place. He sent the text to the wrong guy.
LT interrupts, yelling that Partner Mike isn't his friend, he's no good. He begins kicking boxes.
Left: None of the three have beefcake photos online, so I'm posting 1990s heartthrob Lou Diamond Phillips, who plays the CEO of Family Man Ron's company.
Scene 3: That night, while asleep, Ron keeps imagining LT staring at him. He checks all the closets.
In the morning, he asks his wife if they can install a security system today. A reasonable plan, but he makes it sound crazy by imagining someone with a gun bursting in and forcing them to kill each other.
Scene 4: At work, Ron is discussing something about square footage with a client (Mike Britt). A literal bug crawls into Ron's phone. Now we're getting surreal.
When he has a spare moment, he tries to find out who owns the empty warehouse -- ulp, you have to make your request in person. But before he can duck out, he is dragged into the atrium to watch his tv interview about a shopping mall the company is building: "The way you think about Canton, Ohio is about to change: you're about to step into a bit of Hollywood." Thus the title.
The whispering is about a Mistakes Party -- where you admit your mistakes-- that Ron isn't invited to, because he's the boss.

Mekus is the Anglicized version of the Southern Slavic Mikuš, "Nicholas." So maybe his ancestors came from Croatia (see my photo collection of Serbian studs and Croatian cocks).
Chocolate Chip Cookies: A boy puts laxatives in them to prank his cranky neighbor.
To Smell the Roses: A boy steals his father's cell phone so he will "stop and smell the roses."
Utensils: Everyone at the dinner table is eating soup with a fork.
The Lilac Thief: No plot synopsis available, the film itself is stuck behind a paywall, but the cast list includes SWAT team members and "warrior youth." So time travel?
Then came a lot of reality shows with internet celebrities: 14 episodes with Piper Rokelle, 16 with Friendzy Friday, 41 with ClaireRockSmith, 2 with Sawyer Sharbino, plus his own Ayden Mekus.
13 episodes of P.S. Positive Stories, about people making "positive change."
One episodes of Sister Rules, about sisters who "finally decide to put family first."
73 of Dhar Mann's "uplifting" clickbait videos:
"Dad rejects stepson, then learns shocking truth,"
"This poor kid can't buy school lunch, the end will shock you,"
"Kid gets humiliated playing ball, what happens next will shock you,"

There was no such thing as same-sex desire or romance. You spent time with boys in order to talk about girls or strategize on how to get girls. When you found Her, you would abandon male loves, instantly and without hesitation. They were trivial, steps on the road to the Girl of Your Dreams destiny.
I kept looking for a place where I could escape, where I could go through an entire day without the "What girl? What girl? What girl?" interrogation. Where people cared about beauty, wisdom, and love, not just reproduction. Maybe even recognized the existence of men loving men.
After college, I lived in West Hollywood, New York, Fort Lauderdale, and Minneapolis: Bookstores, art museums, cathedrals, Ethiopian restaurants, Thai restaurants, stores with rainbow flags in the windows, guys holding hands as they walked down the street: heaven.
Oh, sorry, you wanted me to review the movie.
Scene 1: A sound-stage town square in the town of Prairie View, with folks making merry. Some very hot guys rush past, doing a high-step dance number -- but they ruin it by double-taking, en masse, at the hot girl who walks by. At the end of their dance, they pair off, each guy with a girl. Yuck! This is the same brainwashing I grew up with: "Every boy will fall in love with a girl! There's no way out, no escape! You are doomed!"
A car drives past, with the evil, sunglasses-wearing Christine Baranski. She sings: "Forget the past, be free at last, gotta get out of this town." I like her -- she's the voice of thousands of LGBT people growing up in homophobic small towns, longing for a place where they can be free. Of course, she's the villain.
Focus character Felicity drives up and greets the stereotyped 1950s mailman. She's the assistant of evil Christine Baranski, who continues to sing: "I know in time I'll lose my mind, if I don't get out of this town." I had the same thought many times, back in Rock Island amid the "what girl do you like? what girl? what girl? what girl?" interrogation!
I'm getting angry. They should have a trigger warning for all LGBT people who get trapped into viewing this thing. I won't last much longer.
Christine passes out eviction notices. She's going to tear down the whole town. Good!
More nude dudes after the break, if you dare to continue. Caution: Explicit.
