Is Being an Older LGBTQ+ Person as Terrifying as It Sounds?
Someone asked me the other day what my favorite movie was, and I immediately said Arthur, like I always do. Then they said, “Never heard of it? When did it come out?” I didn’t answer 1981, nearly 40 years ago. At that moment I felt old, out of date, and superficially shallow.
Thus, I was not surprised by a new report from The Fenway Institute that found older LGBTQ+ adults in the state of Massachusetts have been diagnosed with depression at twice the rate of their straight, cisgender peers. It could be Massachusetts or any other state, or any other country because depression among older LGBTQ+ people is real, and no doubt much more widespread than we ever realize. I always tell people that if it could happen to me, the proverbial life of the party, it can happen to anyone. Having dealt with severe depression, and then having sought out many older LGBTQ+ people who also experienced similar circumstances, I found it remarkable that we all suffered from some sort of PTSD from our youths.
Again, not surprised that the report also found that LGBTQ+ individuals were twice as likely to fall and be injured in a fall over the past year, and I wouldn’t be shocked to hear if some of that was related to dangerous behavior about feeling alone and useless. Another woman, a lesbian, told me that she had a life-threatening operation, and has not been the same since and feels there’s nothing to live for, except her cat, who is 10. Otherwise, she is alone, without her partner who died, and without a family to take care of her. The family has made her feel shame for who she is, and she worries about being alone for the remainder of her life. Some days, she doesn’t feel like getting out of bed, and subsists on her Social Security checks, desperately afraid that she’ll end up in a nursing home left to die. We didn’t discuss it, but I’m sure she feels equal trepidation about not being able to pay the costs of round-the-clock care.

Woman Kills Her Boyfriend’s Son with Her Daughter’s Help
A search of Denise Gay’s computer showed she had made up a fake name and was emailing Martre Coles as a ruse about going to Full Sail University. Her computer also showed she had searched for “GHB” and “suffocation.”
“This case is one of the saddest and most disturbing cases I’ve ever worked,” Davenport said. “She took the time to get to know Martre and learn what made him happy, and she used that as a way to kill him.”

More than 200 LGBT people have been killed in Mexico in just three years
At least 202 LGBT people have been murdered over the past three years in Mexico.
That’s an average of six homicides every month between 2014 and 2016.
“Trans women are the most exposed to this type of lethal violence,” the report’s authors state.
“It is the first time that the number of trans women murdered exceeds the number of gays,” they added.
Mexican civil rights organisation Letra S SIDA reported that criminals had formed gangs dedicated to targeting gay men, whom they first seduce before attacking and robbing them.

New Bill Would Criminalize Revealing the Truth About Sex and Identity
Identification Chaos
SB 59 would allow someone to secretly change his or her sex and name together after committing a crime. If a law enforcement officer found official records of their original identity, that officer would be legally prohibited from sharing those records, even in court. People whose sex and accompanying name are tied to past actions or crimes change their sex and a different name, and anyone who shows documentation of the change could be punished. Letting anybody secretly change their sex on official documents at any time radically undermines identity verification and will endanger Californians.

I cared for dying gay men during the AIDS crisis. Now, younger queers treat me like I’m invisible
I went to my Pride planning committee meeting and had a really awful experience with a younger man who disagreed with me about something. The man was probably in his late 20s or early 30s. As we were talking, he rolling his eyes and butting in to call me “out of touch” and “silly” in front of the entire room.

Graphic video shows Israeli father throw himself on grenade to save sons during Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack
A new terrifying video shows the moment Hamas soldiers slaughtered an Israeli firefighter in front of his two young sons on Oct. 7 — and helped themselves to Coca-Cola while the wounded boys screamed in horror.
The filmed attack on the Taasa family was shown as part of a roughly 45-minute compilation of clips from the terror group’s deadly 2023 assault that killed 1,2000 Israelis.
It was presented to world leaders, diplomats and journalists Friday.

THE CONTROVERSIAL WORLD OF ‘SISSY RECOVERY’ GROUPS
The videos, created by erotic hypnosis site aim to condition their mostly cishet male viewers into believing they’re a “sexy bimbo girl,” a process known as “feminization” or “sissification.” This is most commonly known as “sissy hypno,” a genre of porn in which men typically dress in makeup and hyper-feminized outfits, and are sexually submissive to any gender.
Of course, there are a few problems with categorizing any of those things as “self-destructive.” But when I ask Adrian if there are homophobic or transphobic undertones to his desire to “recover” from feminization, he insists there’s not.

Troubled hairstylist Fadi Fawaz, 47, was confronted Tuesday morning after breaking a window to get into the “Last Christmas” star’s empty $6.75 million home, the Sun said.
