Which Jonas Brother Is The Most Well Endowed?

Andy Cohen put Nick Jonas on the spot
From: NewNowNext
 Joe Jonas was on Watch What Happens Live! with Andy Cohen in July, and like all of Andy’s guests, was subjected to cheeky games.

Brother Nick was on recently and played “Plead the Fifth”—but refused to answer “which Jo bro is the most well-endowed?”


So when it came time for Joe to play the same game, Cohen asked him the question—but unlike his brother, Joe answered.

“This is Nick’s words not mine, but he said he was going to say me. So I’m going to say me,” Jonas answered nonchalantly.

That wasn’t the only dirt Cohen was able to get out of the DNCE frontman. He also played “Marry, Shag, Kill” with Jonas’ exes, Taylor Swift, Gigi Hadid and Demi Lovato. Which did he pick to marry and who would he have killed?

Trump Plagiarized President Obama’s Inauguration Cake

Leaves a bad taste in your mouth, no?
From: NewNowNext
 The Trump administration has already been accused of plagiarizing: Trump’s inaugural address seemed to lift passages from The Dark Knight Rises and Avatar, while his Twitter background picture was actually from President Obama’s 2008 inauguration.


 And, of course, Melania’s convention speech was uncannily similar to former First Lady Michelle Obama’s address.

But now it looks like the Trumps even cribbed President Obama’s inauguration cake.

Pastry chef Duff Goldman of Ace of Cakes fame tweeted a photo of the towering confection he created for Barack Obama’s second inauguration in 2013, next to the one served last night at Trump’s “Salute Our Armed Services” ball.

The two are nearly identical.

“I didn’t make it,” Goldman posted about Trump’s cake.


This morning, Tiffany MacIsaac, owner of Washington’s Buttercream Bakeshop, confirmed she made the new cake and explained the client came in with a photo of Obama’s cake and asked them to recreate it exactly.

“They came to us a couple of weeks ago, which is pretty last minute, and said ‘We have a photo that we would like to replicate,’” MacIsaac told The Washington Post.


MacIsaac said her team tried to steer the client toward using Goldman’s cake as more of an “inspiration” than a carbon copy. “They said, ‘Nope, they want this exact cake. It’s perfect.’ And we said, ’great.’”

She revealed that proceeds from the Trump inaugural cake are being donated to HRC, the country’s leading LGBT advocacy group.



“I’m a small-business owner and one of the things I’m very, very proud about is that I don’t discriminate,” MacIsaac said. “I would never turn someone away based on their age, their sex, their sexual orientation, their political views. It’s just not the way we operate.”

The icing on the cake in this pastry story: The Trump cake was never really intended to be eaten—everything but a three-inch slice at the bottom is inedible.

Report: Trump closes down White House Office of AIDS Policy

From: Queerty
Websites are one thing, but if a source speaking to reporter Kenneth Walsh is to be believed, Donald Trump has already taken action to shutter the White House Office of National AIDS Policy (ONAP).

As Walsh reports on his blog, Kenneth in the 212:
“…a source in the HIV/AIDS research community tells me Trump has already closed the Office of National AIDS Policy, whose page has also been disabled. Revisionist LGBT activists should note the office was formed in 1993 — during the Clinton administration at the height of the plague — to coordinate government efforts to reduce the number of HIV infections in the United States.”

Indeed, if you try to access the web address associated with ONAP, this page comes up:

Many have noted that the website issues might be chalked up to expected transition messiness, but that doesn’t explain why some pages have remained intact or are brand new, while others are gone completely.

The director of ONAP under President Obama, Amy Lansky, tweeted a series of final farewells from her whole staff on Jan. 4:



When reached for comment, Lansky told Walsh, “I have no information on what the Trump administration may or may not do with regards to ONAP.”

Like countless other pressing issues associated with Trump’s ascent to power, we’ll have to wait to find out ONAP’s fate for certain.

But it’s not exactly looking good.

The White House’s LGBT rights page has been deleted already

From: Queerty
 Well this is uncomfortable.

Donald Trump was president for roughly a few hours, and we were already seeing the first sign of danger ahead.

It’s understandable that the new administration would revise the official White House web pages to reflect the positions of the incoming Commander in Chief, but some key pages have disappeared entirely.

Among them, the page dedicated to LGBT rights.

When the Obama administration created the page, it was used to showcase legislative/judicial achievements and policy updates affecting gay and transgender Americans. It also featured campaigns to combat suicide among young queer people, like “It Gets Better.”

Well, not any more.

Anyone trying to find the official LGBT White House page is now met with this lovely screen:


 In fact, all mentions of the term “LGBT” have been scrubbed from the site entirely:


It doesn’t quite foster the same sense of inclusion as the old site, we must admit.

It’s possible the Trump team will replace the page with their own LGBT section in due time — after all, Trump has been lauded as the most “pro-gay” Republican nominee ever for president by groups like the Log Cabin Republicans.

But looking beyond Trump, whose positions, like his hair, seem to change with the breeze, it’s tough to find any encouragement that LGBTQ Americans will be high on the administration’s priorities list.

In related and equally worrying news, all mentions of climate change have also been removed from the site.

Welcome to our new reality, where we’ll have to fight even harder for justice and truth to prevail.

 AUSTRALIA 
The center of the sporting universe today.  The Australian Open of Tennis continues this weekend, with contests in the Round of 32, in Men's and Women's singles and doubles, along with mixed doubles.  The event is taking place at Melbourne Park, Melbourne.  At this point, Round 3 is coming to an end, as those who are moving into Round 4 are determined.  Brit Dan Evans joined Andy Murray in the last 16 of the Australian Open with a brilliant performance to give Britain two men in the fourth round.  Roger Federer will also advance, but phenom Novak Djokovic has washed out and will not continue in the tournament.  Play continues through Thursday's celebration of Australia Day and beyond, with the finals on January 29th.  


Rohan Dennis
 The Santos Tour Down Under also continues this weekend.  Australian Richie Porte, Richie (BMC Racing Team) currently holds the Overall  and King of the Mountain Jersey, with fellow countryman Caleb Ewan (ORICA - SCOTT)leading in points.  Ruben Guerreiro of Portugal  (Trek - Segafredo) currently holds the Young Rider jersey, with UniSA-Australia currently ahead in the team competition.  Exciting stages are foreseen today and tomorrow, closing day of the Tour Down Under. 


 Brazil
As mentioned previously, Chapecoense will play their first match today since the tragic crash which took the lives of almost all their team, a friendly against defending Brazilian league champions Palmeiras. The people of Chapeco will, once-again, fill the small Arena Conda to see some of the 22 new players who make up the squad. Three of the six survivors were players, including central defender Neto, who was one of the team's leaders.  He was the last to be pulled out from the wreckage.  Chapeco is a quiet, unassuming city with a population of about 209,553, a tight-knit community, and a major part of that is the Chapecoense football team.  The best to them.

England 
and 
Wales
Another weekend of top Premier League action is upon us, and it's a big one for Pep Guardiola as his Manchester City side take on Tottenham. City have struggled in recent months, while Tottenham are on the rise, but who will come out on top at the Etihad? Meanwhile, Chelsea have Diego Costa back in the squad but don't seem to need him that much as they take on lowly Hull City seven points clear at the top of the table.  Liverpool host Swansea, while Manchester United travel to Stoke and Arsenal will hope to keep up the pressure on their title rivals with a win over Burnley.

In Africa Cup of Nations play today, Ghana faces Mali, and Uganda faces Egypt as group play continues.  


Spain
Today, La Liga clubs Real Madrid and Malaga faces each other.  Real Madrid was flying high, having just achieved a league record last weekend with 40 straight victories as they beat Seville, but then they lost twice this week.  How the mighty have fallen!  Malaga has been taunting Real Madrid in social media, reminding them that last year the teams played to a draw.  

Spicer Screams At Press For “False Reporting” About Largest Inauguration Crowd Ever, Period

From: Joe My God
Talking Points Memo reports:

White House press secretary Sean Spicer on Saturday accused the media of misrepresenting the crowd at Donald Trump’s inauguration in order to dampen enthusiasm for the event. “This was the largest audience ever to witness an inauguration, period,” Spicer said with emphasis. “Both in person and around the globe.”
He accused the media of “deliberately false reporting” both with regard to photos of the crowd that were published as well as crowd estimates. “No one had numbers. Because the National Park Service, which controls the National Mall, does not put any out,” Spicer said.
“These attempts to lessen the enthusiasm of the inauguration are shameful and wrong,” he added. Spicer took no questions after delivering his remarks. Aerial photos of the crowd at Trump’s inauguration showed much open space on the National Mall when compared side-by-side with an aerial photo of Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration.

Anaheim, California

Only a hour's drive from Los Angeles, Anaheim is not such a small world when it comes to LGBT inclusion. The community boasts an LGBT center and a score of 80 on the Human Rights Campaign's Municipal Equality Index. It's also home to the Happiest Place on Earth, which hosts the ever-popular Gay Days celebrations. Anaheim recently open is architecturally significant ARTIC Rail Station (see above), which makes travel to L.A. and other parts of California quite a breeze. Wary of Orange County?  For the first time since the Great Depression, the longtime Republican county went blue, voting for Hillary Clinton over you-know-who.

Limits

Limits are important, and every submissive guy’s limits are different. A limit is the point beyond which you do not allow Dominants to go. “Soft limits” are things that you’re mostly against, but in certain circumstances may try. For instance, drinking urine is a soft limit for this writer — an act not done in most circumstances, but perhaps for special occasions (like this year's Folsom Street Fair). Soft limits may change over time. A “hard limit,” by contrast, is nonnegotiable. This writer's hard limits are the presence of blood and/or feces. If either one of these appear during a scene, I’m finished, and playtime stops. 

Minutes Into The Trump Presidency, White House LGBT Page Taken Down

LGBT-related info from the Department of Labor has also been removed
From: NewNowNext
It might be some time before we see the effects of Donald Trump’s presidency on civil liberties, but there are already signs they won’t be positive: The White House’s LGBT page, WhiteHouse.gov/LGBT, has been taken down.


The URL now redirects to a splash page inviting visitors to sign up for updates from President Trump.


 Also removed from the “issues” section of WhiteHouse.gov are pages focusing on climate change, health care and civil rights.

The page on climate change was replaced with a page entitled “An America First Energy Plan” that ignores climate change entirely and declares President Trump “is committed to eliminating harmful and unnecessary policies such as the Climate Action Plan.”

The civil rights section now carries information on “Standing Up For Our Law Enforcement Community,” calling for increased police.(The words “black” and “African-American” no longer appear on any policy page on WhiteHouse.gov.) As Daily Beast reports, “[It] paints predominantly black inner cities as shooting galleries.”

“In our nation’s capital, killings have risen by 50 percent,” despite the fact that homicides in Washington, D.C. were down last year.

Activist Jay Franzone also reports the Dept. of Labor’s report, Advancing LGBT Workplace Rights, has also been removed.
Some information is still on government sites, thankfully, including details for LGBT travelers on the State Department website, and a resources page for trans and gender-nonconforming students on the Department of Ed site.
We’ll see how long that lasts.

ANOTHER LEAKED SNAPCHAT VIDEO, THIS TIME IT’S TOM DALEY’S

 What is it with nude leaks this week? First Cody Christian, then Tyler Posey and then Olympic diver Chris Mears. And now, Mears’ fellow Olympian Tom Daley has a leak on his hands.


 Although, it should be noted that Daley’s isn’t quite as bad; just a picture and a video where he’s just showing off his chiseled body and impressive package, sadly covered by underwear. Still, that’s not to take away from the beauty of it all.

A Kordell Stewart SEX TAPE?? Alleged Ex-Boyfriend Puts Kordell On Blast!

From: Funky Dineva
 All right y’all, let me go ahead and get this out of the way. I don’t make the news, I just report…

I was minding my business as I always do when I received an email titles “Kordell”. Chile, I thought it was my homeboy Kordell inviting me to a Christmas party. When I opened up the email, it’s contents were disturbing. The person who drafted the email claims that they are an ex boyfriend of Kordell Stewart and they had some tea to spill.

Check it out:


 “I’ve been dating Kordell for the last two years and yes I’m a guy.
I know the first thing is why would I hit up a blogger about it well I feel like I need to say my piece.
I love Kordell and his son Syre but I can only be manipulated so much.
When we met he was my “bro”. We played golf, went on trips, he supported me when I was finishing my Masters (yes he paid) and I supported him when he was finishing up his degree earlier this year. But I feel like just because he has more money over me he can control me.
I have to give it to him, he started this well. We became friends, then close friends, slept in the bed together on trips without doing anything. Then one day… I woke up and while laying in bed he brought up last sexual encounters. He told me about how he let two girls suck his dick and one started licking his ass. He asked had I ever done or would I… I said maybe. He jokingly said “with me”? I said maybe… nothing happened for months until we got drunk and he aggressively said he wanted. Needless to say that began our relationship.
It was good for a while until his ex wife came back around. I didn’t really care because he always talked about Porsha. Once he started knocking her off he never brought her up. He was giving her money every week, and would get mad when i said she’s using you.
This is only the half of it.”

Attached to the email was the following photo:


 Now any blogger will tell you that we get emails like this with insufficient evidence ALL THE TIME…

So I wrote back:


 Anyone off the street can make up the story you just provided me. I need a little more than that. text messages, pictures, something private.
What else you got?

Lord why’d I do that. Here is where things got interesting. The person on the other end of the computer then emailed me a pretty incriminating video.


No before we go any further, let me take care of some general housekeeping. I have watched the video and I cannot confirm or deny if it is actually Kordell Stewart. What I can say is that the man in the video looks a hell of lot like Kordell (I ain’t trying to get sued). Take a look for yourself and draw your own conclusions.


So let’s take a moment to be balanced and fair here. Let’s just assume that the person in the video is in fact Kordell Stewart, then just who is he talking to? I found it a little suspect that the audio from the video had been removed. For all we know, the alleged Kordell Stewart in the video could have been video chatting with a woman. The person who emailed me could be some jilted female lover. Rumors on reality shows have a tendency to grow legs and run. Y’all have got to be careful about what you say about people down to the tv.

Just when I was trying to take up for the man in the video that I realized, he was showing his ass… Uhhhmmmm….. I mean….

Gary With The Tea, ask Porsha to confirm if that’s her ex-husbands dinga-ling, and if he has a birth mark near his booty cheek.

Thoughts?

A BEL AMI SCENE NAMED AFTER MADGE’S BEST TOUR BUT SOMEHOW STILL HOT

 We can all agree that the apex of Madonna’s career was the Blonde Ambition tour, right? I think I just gayed up this gay porn blog a little too much for most of you. Blonde Ambition is Bel Ami’s latest tribute to the male form and the hot things it can do. Lars Norgaard and Jim Kerouac (another homage!) are blonde and busting each other like crazy. As the literature says, these two are “hung, handsome and horny” and “made for each other like hand and glove.” Couldn’t have drooled it better myself!

PrEP use on the rise

As awareness of pre-exposure prophylaxis increases, so does its use: More and more countries are approving its use—a new major PrEP trail is launching in the UK, where the NHS has previously dragged its feet, and Norway has started offering the therapy for free.

Additionally, clinical trials have just started in the U.S. for a new, injectable version that only needs to be administered every eight weeks.
