Poz blogger Oriol has some great insights on this week's discussion about AIDS on the Colbert Report, when Anthony Fauci appeared as a guest. I love Colbert, and think he did a great job of conveying the mass misunderstanding of HIV through his on-air character....
Entertainment & Pop Culture
Meet Dirk Roth, Watch His Cool Video
I love music videos. The only time I see them is when TiVo picks up 120 Minutes on VH1 Classic, which I highly recommend watching if you haven't seen it. They show the best. I know, I know, you can YouTube videos anytime... but 120 Minutes really sorts out the quality...
WWE Wrestles With Gay Issue
I am an unapologetic pro wrestling fan. Oh, wait, sports entertainment fan. WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) takes great pains in correcting journalists who label their product "professional wrestling", as that is far too limiting in scope when you consider the...
Elizabeth Taylor: A Moving Star to the AIDS Community
Elizabeth Taylor is a legend for a far more important reason than pretending to be someone else while being filmed. In the 1980's, when this country and her own inner-circle of friends were beginning to see the harsh realities of AIDS and it's unbearable stigma, she...
Republicans VS. Planned Parenthood
One of the reasons why I'll probably never be able to cast a vote for a Republican is because of their views on sex, whether it's institutionalized homophobia (in which they obsessively cannot get the sexual imagery of homosexual acts out of their minds- hmmmm) or...

Would You Eat a Condom for a Good Cause?
Saw this on Bob Bower's newsfeed over on Facebook, and just had to share the link. "Demon Chef" Alvin Leung created a dish called "Sex on the Beach", and it's entirely edible, with proceeds going to an AIDS organization in Hong Kong where it's available. Read the...
MegaPython VS. Gatoroid- Tonite!
It can't be all AIDS, or all me, all the time on this blog. Sometimes a light- even if it's a pin light- must be shown on other things... and tonight, on the SyFy Network, something magical is happening. 1980's teen pop icons Tiffany and Debbie Gibson are starring...
Black Swan and HIV
I finally managed to see Black Swan, which is one of those movies I was excited to see until it got overexposed, as if something popular somehow loses it's ability to be any good. That just isn't true, but my subconscious movie buzz does seem to suffer if I hear too...
