GAY FLESHBOT (WORK UNFRIENDLY): You can enjoy Cameron Dallas as he appears above, or you can click and get an image of him pooping — choices.

TOWLEROAD: As Aaron Salazar continues to improve while recovering from his injuries, Amtrak says they don't think the young gay man — found badly beat up by some train tracks — is the victim of a hate crime; rather, their investigation has concluded he jumped from a moving train.
NYDN: Roseanne Barr thinks her whole life has been about fighting racism (HA), claims her racist tweet was due to taking Ambien, and yet continues to share nutty memes about Valerie Jarrett that are false and defamatory. She has asked her fans not to defend her, yet has retweeted fans' defenses of her, including one in which she claims she didn't know Jarrett was a woman of color. Barr's Ambien defense, which is like the new Twinkie defense except nobody got shot (yet):
Guys I did something unforgivable so do not defend me. It was 2 in the morning and I was Ambien tweeting. It was Memorial Day, too. I went too far and do not want it defended - it was egregious indefensible. I made a mistake I wish I hadn't but…don't defend it please. Thank you.
Why do insane, conspiracy-driven nuts like Roseanne and Trump tweet in the middle of the goddamned night — and don't say Ambien because I don't see racism listed as a possible side effect.
She also sniffed at castmates Sara Gilbert (also her producer) and Michael Fishman criticizing her, referring to Fishman's statement as “throwing her under the bus.” That phrase is drastically over- and misused these days. He wasn't unfairly forcing her to take all the blame for a situation not 100% her fault, he was simply agreeing with her that she did something unforgivable. And it takes courage to go up against your meal ticket, which in his case is exactly what Roseanne is, much more so than for rich Sara Gilbert.
NYDN: Lost in the racism of Roseanne is her anti-Semitic and defamatory stance on George Soros, whom she has helped to slander as a Nazi who turned in his own kind and stole from his people. It's all lies, and she has not been held accountable for it. Here, Soros's son explains how shameful it is that people like Roseanne are casually sliming his father and grandfather to further a political agenda.
KENNETH IN THE (212): More sexy men than you'll ever have time to ogle.
GR8ERDAYS: Broadway veteran and The Days and Nights of Molly Dodd co-star Allyn Ann McLerie dies @ 91.
BUSINESS INSIDER: Megyn Kelly has the heebie-jeebies over the idea that a homeless person might be using a Starbucks bathroom. Would she rather they pooped on her porch?
JOE.MY.GOD.: Sooooo ... what is the real story on why Melania Trump hasn't been seen in forever? If she had a minor kidney procedure, she'd be up and around by now. Is she prepping a divorce? I can't believe she had plastic surgery done — she already had plenty of that and looked absolutely fine; that feels like a lazy guess to me.
NBC NEWS: Putin critic Bill Browder, once Russia's biggest foreign investor, was briefly detained in Spain on a bogus Russian warrant. Ominous.
Rossello — frustratingly — won't say a bad word about Trump. (Images via video stills)
CBS NEWS: Seven months after Hurricane Maria, Puerto Rico is still struggling with power issues — and a new study claims more than 4,600 people have died on the island due to thie disaster. The official U.S. government death toll stands at 64 (!). The island's governor, Ricardo Rossello, expressed surprise at the study (about which he was not informed in advance), but both he and San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz welcome the reality check. Cruz says:
The negligence that allowed those lives to be lost, needs to be accounted for.
Rossello is pushing for Puerto Ricans throughout the U.S. who have the power to vote to get organized politically ahead of the midterms.
HUFF POST: Trey Gowdy, of all people, is backing the FBI over Trump's lame claims of spying.
GMA: Lesbian couple's engagement becomes a battle of the rings! So cute that when one of these women went down on one knee, the other already had her own ring waiting in the wings. They're lesbians, so this was actually how they wrapped up their first date:
