PAY FOR PLAY. Pam Bondi wasn’t the only attorney general investigating Donald Trump that Trump then sent money to: “From 2001 to 2014 Donald Trump donated to a dozen attorneys general – or candidates running for that office – “while they weighed decisions affecting his business, a review of his political donations shows,” The Wall Street Journal reports.”
VP DEBATE. On Mike Pence’s much-talked-about ‘win’ last night: “But Pence and his dreadful positions on everything from Syria to abortion don’t make him a winner for the people affected by those policies.”
CLIMATE CHANGE. Questions that candidates for president should have to answer.
IN THE ZONE. BDSM may help relieve stress: “How? A new study conducted by researchers over at Northern Illinois University found that BDSM sex (you know, “50 Shades” style bondage/discipline, dominance/submission, and sadism/masochism) works to increase mindfulness, a hyper awareness and acceptance of the current moment.”
TEASE. Taylor Lautner gives Ellen a very tiny peak of his abs.
‘RELIGION.’ Ben Foster may or may not be a Scientologist now.
MEANWHILE, IN WESTEROS. Kristin Chenoweth performs the operatic version of The Game of Thrones theme song.
THE QUEEN OF IRELAND. Panti Bliss reflects on her impact on culture and LGBT rights: “If you’d said it to me 10 years ago, I would have looked at you. It’s pretty wild how queer Ireland has become.”
TREY PEARSON. The out gay Christian rocker reflects on Mike Pence’s frequent attacks on LGBT rights: “Gov. Pence got one thing right last night – society will be judged by how it deals with its most vulnerable. Too bad he’s built a career on marginalizing the least among us, and is a part of a campaign founded on the oppression of women, LGBT individuals and people of color. If we do not believe in hate, name calling or bullying, we should not vote for it. That’s why I’ll be voting for Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine.”
EMOJIS. New interracial couple emojis are here: “Created by Focus Features, the keyboard extension was inspired by Richard, a white man, and Mildred Loving, a black woman. “Loving,” in theaters on Nov. 4, tells the story of the couple’s fight to legalize interracial marriage in their landmark 1967 U.S. Supreme Court case Loving v. Virginia.”
POLLS. Hillary Clinton surges to 10 point lead in new national poll.
US VS. UK. Comparing gay adult film searches in Britain and her former colonies: “The data shows that straight men dominate the top searches in the UK, with “straight first time”, “straight”, and “straight friend” taking the top three places…This is in comparison to the United States, where “straight first time” still takes the top position, but “big black dick” and “black” finish off the top three.”
RACISM. Drag queen Shangela addresses controversy over owner of Philly gay bar Icandy referring to black patrons as ‘n—ers.’
