DNA: The new issue of DNA is here, and you can practically extract a sample of his just with your eyes.

WAPO: First, they came for Nora Roberts ...

TWITTER: ... then they came for Betty White.

INSTAGRAM: Dylan Mulvaney, pubic enemy #1 for insecure right-wingers, has responded to the absurd, scary Bud Light backlash.

AMAZON: I went to the Strand Bookstore Q&A of my friend Fenton Bailey by Ronan Farrow on the occasion of the publication of Fenton's ScreenAgemy review here — and was really impressed. Nobody isn't ready to be impressed by Ronan Farrow, but I didn't expect him to be so thoroughly familiar with the book and so talkative. It wasn't a promo stop so much as a deep-issue massage on a variety of topics that ranged from the media to LGBTQ rights to history and why what's on the tee-vee is so dang important. Spotted: TV legend Sheila Nevins and America's Next Top Model alum Jay Manuel.

She could've dubbed Marilyn Monroe's singing voice, eh? Very breathy. We need a Donna Summer/April Stevens mashup.

MODUS VIVENDI: Good grief! The Muslin Line II from Modus Vivendi is Wedding-themed, and yet — it looks more put-a-cockring-on-it to me.

OMG.BLOG!: A flashback to the late, great Leigh Bowery (who seems to have caused less uproar 40 years ago than harmless Trixie Mattel in 2023, considering all this drag blowback) reminded me that in the Perry Mason Season 2 finale — great show — Hope Davis, playing a cold-as-ice dyke doyenne, looked super-Leigh Bowery during her vintage beauty regimen.

YOUTUBE: In prep for the upcoming Noah's Arc reunion feature, check out their last reunion — The 'Rona Chronicles:

PINK NEWS: Non-binary actor Liv Hewson (Yellowjackets, another great show — I watch too many shows) has pulled out of Emmy consideration over gendered categories. Even if you're still last-century on gender, it is pretty weird, if you think about it, that we bother with gendered categories for performances,
