Photographer Magnus Hastings came up with the idea of inviting his LGBTQ subjects to pose in a simple white box, presenting themselves exactly as they wished to be seen. His #GayFace photos became all the rage, with many seeking out the celebrity photog for the chance to express themselves.
The gimmick, launched in 2018, became a long series of startling portraits that are now gathered in his coffee-table book Rainbow Revolution.
Added to the imagery are essays from some of the subjects. Hastings says:
The essays elevate the book for me and give it a purpose beyond the social media recognition the images have gained.
As of November 24, Rainbow Revolution — featuring everyday folks, famous actors, RuPaul's Drag Race stars, porn actors and every other kind of person you can think of — will be available wherever you buy books, from Chronicle Books or here!

Although curated gift boxes make up a substantial market share in online retail, finding one that is created by gays and for gays was virtually impossible — Until BoxoLoco emerged.
In recent years, curated gift boxes are a huge thing — and rightfully so. Finding a gift for a friend, sibling, son or partner is oftentimes a tricky matter that requires a lot of thought, research and web browsing. A curated gift box saves all of that. All you need to do is choose a theme, find the right website and purchase the perfect box. Your loved one (or you, because you deserve to pamper yourself) will receive a variety of cute items all wrapped in a pretty box right to their doorstep.
But a few years ago, when Adi and Kim, a proud gay couple, searched for a gay-themed gift box - they couldn’t find one. That was the spark that started BoxoLoco — a brand that offers stylishly curated gay gift boxes. After speaking to other gay friends, they realized it wasn’t just a whim of theirs, but an actual necessity. Gay people’s needs are often underepresented in retail, and LGBTQIA+ led businesses are few and far between.
That’s why they made sure every item in every box is manufactured and sold by businesses owned by LGBTQIA+ individuals or community allies. Supporting other gay businesses is crucial for our community growth and prosperity. Another important matter was quality. They assembled the top brands in beachwear, underwear and grooming to ensure every piece is no less than perfect. These brands include PUMP!, Addicted, Andrew Christian and more.
Since every box includes a number of items, it can better represent different aspects of the gift-receiver's personality. Each of us has a more spontaneous, party-animal side and a serious, chill side. The items in BoxoLoco’s gay gift boxes range between romantic, wholesome and humorous to kinky, daring and sexy. In other words — a perfect match to anyone.
So next time your gay couple of friends celebrates an anniversary, your son has a birthday coming up, your bestie came out or your brother got a promotion — you’ll know what to get them. We guarantee they’ll love it.

Pope Francis, in a seismic shift, has broken with the Catholic Church on the subject of homosexuality, supporting same-sex civil unions for the first time.
The Pope made the remarks in a new documentary, Franceso by Evgeny Afineevsky, that premiered Wednesday at the Rome Film Festival. He said:

Tiffany Trump's speech to, like, four people at a Pride event for her father's campaign is one of the most godawful speeches you will ever hear, phony and unmoored in any version of reality. Also worth noting — she raves about how her dad has always supported the LGBQIAplus community, deliberately leaving out transgender people, who he banned from the military and who he has disenfranchised in numerous ways via his Administration.
