ABOVE: Check out a full Q&A with director Marco Calvani and stars Marco Pigossi and James Bland of High Tide, a new queer drama that I'll be reviewing soon. It is the New Fest centerpiece.

INSTAGRAM: Singer and dancer Cat Glover, who was a Prince protegée remembered as the face (or lack thereof) of his Sign o' the Times 45, has died at 60.

KENNETH IN THE (212): Here comes New Fest, NYC's LGBTQ+ film fest. it kicks off October 10 and has a terrific slate of movies.

HUFF POST: Trump calls the infamous Charlottesville “Charlottestown.” He spent the day in Georgia, then raved about having been in ... Louisiana. I got some news for you — if you vote for Trump, you're getting 39-year-old fascist J.D. Vance. And soon.

THE AP: Missouri has executed a man despite the victim's family's pleas not to — and it was because SCOTUS voted 6-3. That is one direct result of Trump having beaten Hillary Clinton in 2016, and every leftist who is encouraging skepticism of Kamala Harris — when the only other option is Trump II — is encouraging the same and worse results going forward.

BUZZFEED: Jennifer Lawrence is endorsing Kamala Harris over her abortion stance, which includes reiterating that she would support nuking the filibuster in order to restore abortion rights nationwide.

POLITICO: Michigan is currently controlled by Democrats — Republicans are trying to flip two statehouse seats to change that. I hope Michigan voters, voting for Kamala in droves, will prevent that from happening. Blue wall must not fall. Kamala can't lose if she wins MI, PA and WI.

OMG.BLOG!: New music from (checks notes) Mannequin Pussy.

TWITTER: I'm sorry, but Chappell Roan is fucking stupid. She barely allows, “Yeah, I'm voting for fucking Kamala” (mispronouncing her name). No more patience:

TWITTER: Convicted fraudster and heartless bitch Anna Delvey was given the ridiculous chance to appear on Dancing with the Stars, and her partner was Latin queer man Ezra Sosa — whose inclusion on the show had been heralded by GLAAD. Well, when it comes to succeeding on the series, it's location, location, location, and being located next to a monster did Sosa in: she was promptly eliminated. On top of it all, she was asked on the live show what she would take from the experience, and declared:
