James Bidgood is, in many ways, the embodiment of LGBTQ-pop culture of the past nearly 100 years (he turned 86 today). At 18, the Wisconsite moved to NYC, where he quickly became involved in hustling, drag and porn. Check, check and check!

Steve Grand's new song and video, “Disciple,” shows him being rescued by a silver daddy after washing ashore, then coming to terms with his own duality.

Must be the first music video in which we see an artist have a three-way including only himself and one other person, and it also feels magically tethered to the release of Us, which Grand could not have planned considering plot points of the big sci-fi hit weren't widely known ...
