Pontius Gemstone, the Boy Named Stacy, and the E*rotic Alphabet. With a special appearance by Gideon Gemstone

   

 Link to the n*de dudes

Stacy awoke with Pontius' arms wrapped around him, his head on Pontius' chest.  He could resist reaching down to stroke his.....

"Mmm...keep doing that." 

"Sorry, I didn't know you were awake."

"I try not to sleep when you're lying in my arms.  I don't want to miss any of it."  He leaned up, and they kissed.

"Good morning."  Pontius' gaze was intense, yet warm, comforting, loving.  

"I love you," Stacy said.

Instead of saying "I love you" back, Pontius leapt out of bed.  "Be right back -- gotta pee."  He bounced to the bathroom.

 While listening to the pee-sounds  -- why was that *rotic?  -- Stacy looked around the room: New dresser, desk cluttered with books and headphones, a map of the world taped to the wall, drawings of car designs, a bookcase with mostly Matchbox car models, three dusty guitars that no one had ever used, a glowing neon P.  

Pontius had replaced a poster of a bikini babe with a muscleman because Stacy asked him to, and cleared a drawer for some shirts, socks, and underwear, but it was still his room, Pontius with capital P, in the house he shared with his brother. 

They met last July, when Stacy was shot in the Gator Farm Massacre, and Pontius visited him at the hospital.  Since they, they had hung out almost every day.  

There were movies, concerts, plays, Queer Youth Game Nights. dinner at Jason's Steakhouse after church, volunteer work, a Halloween Party, Thanksgiving with Stacy's family, Christmas with the Gemstones, New Year's Eve in Myrtle Beach -- yet whenever Stacy hinted at moving in together, or getting their own place, Pontius deflected, changed the subject, or bounced out of the room, and God forbid he say "I love you."  Did he think of Stacy as a boyfriend or a buddy? 

Sound of the water running, a towel being yanked, and then Pontius rushed out of the bathroom. "So, what we were talking about?"

"Me on my stomach, I think."

"No, on your back.  I want to look at you."

The full story is on  RG Beefcake and Boyfriends . Hint: there's kissing and stuff.

Andreas Alvarez: Righteous Gemstones stunt skater has lots of man friends and a potential p*enis. With skater dude bonus

  

Link to the n*de dudes

Although he's not in the cast list, Andreas Alvarez performed all of Pontius' skateboarding in Righteous Gemstones Season 4, and maybe Gideon's.

He has tats of his own, so Pontius always skateboarded in a long-sleeved shirt.

Of course, one of the perks of being a stunt performer is meeting the cast.

I wanted to research Andreas, but he doesn't seem to have any other stunt listing on the IMDB.  He was apparently cast because he has a similar body build to Kelton Dumont.

Not a lot of biographical information available. His facebook says that he was born in 1999.  He grew up in Compton, Virginia, an unincorporated small town in the Shenandoah Mountains.  Now he lives in North Springfield,Virginia, a suburb of Washington, DC.

Google searches are stymied by the much more famous Andreas Alvarez, baseball player.

All we have from our Andreas are skateboarding stats: overall global rank 326th, street 196th, park 984th, earned $2,184, with sponsors:Fairfax surf, Llama spit brand, Saiber (SABER), fly paper grip, OC Ramps

Over 100 competitions beginning iin 2016 with The Boarder Am Qualifiers (where he placed #52).

His most recent competition was the Jackalope Mens Street Semi Finals, where he placed #16 of #24.

I found a potential n*de photo, but it would have come before he most of his tats (the arms are visible).

The Gay Men of Roy Crane's Adventure Comics

When I was a kid, a cute teenage boy rode by on his bicycle every morning about 6:00 am and threw a tightly-bound copy of the Rock Island Argus onto our porch.

It had to stay in pristine condition, untouched, until after dinner, when Mom got around to reading it -- and doing the crossword puzzle. Some of my favorite memories involve the family gathered around the tv while Mom called out crossword puzzle clues.

"Star of Casablanca, five letters, begins with an I."

"Vegetable related to the carrot, seven letters.  I have R and P."

"Greek god, nine letters, begins with a H"

Dad got the paper next.  By the time the kids' turns came around, it was nearly bedtime.  I still instinctively associate newspapers and bedtime.

I skipped the news, editorials, and sports (except when there was a picture of a cute athlete) to read "Lifestyle", with movie reviews and tv listings and events going on in town, and the comics page.

The Moline Dispatch, from the town next door, got all of the good comics: Peanuts, BC, The Wizard of Id, Doonesbury.  I didn't realize it at the time, but the Argus got mostly dinosaurs limping through their senescence, with costumes, language, and themes that delighted Grandma forty years ago.

I just thought they were bizarre.

Still, they were sometimes good for beefcake.

Alley Oop, a muscular cave man transported to the modern era through a plot device lost to history.

Prince Valiant, a knight in King Arthur's court transported to pre-Columbian North America.

Out Our Way, a single panel strip reminiscing about the joys of the Great Depression, mostly involving n*de boys.

Or gay subtexts, in two comic sstrips by Roy Crane.

Captain Easy seemed to involve the swashbuckling adventures of a pair of boyfriends, the taciturn, muscular Easy and the cheerful, eyeglassed Wash.

Neither looked twice at a woman.

But when Wash Tubbs first appeared on the comics page in1924, the creation of cartoonist Roy Crane,  he fell in love with every woman in sight: "Gosh! Wotta bon-bon!  Wotta tomato!"

In 1929, he hooked up with Captain Easy, who soon took over the strip and changed the focus from humor to adventure.  Wash tagged along, gazing lustfully at semi-clad ladies as comic relief for 40 years.   I was just reading during a period of quiescence.

The N*de Ghost of Hylton Castle: A Gay Murder Mystery

Hylton Castle in Sunderland, near the Scottish border, is closed now, but for centuries staff and visitors reported seeing a n*de teenage boy wandering the hallways.

When they approached him, he moaned "I'm cauld"(cold),  and vanished.

Dubbed "The Cauld Lad of Hylton," the ghost had a helpful side.  He lit fires that had gone out, and tidied rooms that had been left in disarray.

But he also had a mischievous side.  He would slam doors, knock books over, blow candles out, and move objects around.

Besides, what could be scarier than a n*de teenager complaining about the cold?

According to legend, he was the ghost of Robert Skelton, a stableboy in the employ of the young Baron Robert Hyland during the age of Shakespeare.  On the morning of July 3rd, 1609, he overslept and didn't have the Baron's horse ready for a trip.  The enraged Baron killed him.

Some versions say that he chopped the boy's head off; others, that he stabbed him with a pitchfork, or hit him with a riding crop. 

Historical records do mention a Robert Hylton, tried for the murder of Robert Skelton in the fall of 1609.  He claimed that the death was accidental, and was pardoned by James I.

But the 20-year old Hylton wasn't the Baron yet.  His older brother, Henry, was.

In English Fairy Tales (1890), the famous anthology by Joseph Jacobs, the Cauld Lad is turned into a monster.

Most modern illustrations make him human, but  much younger than a real stableboy of the era, and not nearly as n*de.

This leads us to a question:  Ghosts usually appear in the outfit they died in.  Why was Robert Skelton n*de?

Elizabethans didn't sleep n*de, even in the summer time.   Unless they had thrown off their clothes in the heat of passion.

So Robert Skelton must have been having s*x on the night of July 2nd.  Who was is partner?

Some legends give him a forbidden romance with the Baron's daughter, but in 1609 Robert was too young to have a teenage daughter.

Robert Hylton himself, then?  But why would Hylton then be surprised at Skelton's oversleeping?

Maybe his brother,  24-year old Baron Henry Hylton? Shortly after the murder, Henry went to live with his cousin Nathaniel, and stayed for 30 years. He never consummated his arranged marriage.  He was characterized as reclusive, eccentric, and "mad."

Picture it: Robert finds his older brother and the stableboy in the midst of a s*xual encounter and, outraged at the breach of etiquette, grabs a pitchfork.  Robert is able to use his social position to get a pardon.  Henry never recovers.

And Robert Skelton wanders the hallways, moaning "I'm cauld..."

"Department Q": Cold cases in Edinburgh, with the "Brideshead Revisited" guy, Magic Mike, and a gay dude with a tree trunk

Link to the n*de dudes

A poster on a gay movie site recommended the Netflix tv series Dept Q: "an unlikely team of misfits solves cold cases."  As you probably know by now, I prefer comedies and science fiction, but there are bound to be gay characters, so let's go, Episode 1.

Scene 1: October 17, 2024. D.I Hardy, Police Officer Anderson, his Acerbic Mentor (Matthew Goode, left), and another cop go into a room where an old man has been murdered. The Acerbic Mentor makes fun of Anderson for being new and throwing up due to the smell, and being too idiotic to check for broken windows.  Suddenly a gunman rushes out of hiding and shoots them all. 

I figured Anderson would be a main character.  He was cute, darn it.

Anderson played by Angus Yellowlees, left, with Patrick McNamee in Touching the Void

Scene 2: A woman named Merritt is listening to a phone message from a maniac: "You think you're a righteous person, but you're not.  You're as evil as the rest of us." He plans to murder her soon.  

She walks through the rainy town, past Edinburgh landmarks like the City Chambers Building, and into the court, where she's a barrister, prosecuting a guy accused of pushing his wife down the stairs to her death. "You were upset because she was planning to leave you, you argued, and you flew off the handle."

He claims that he found her at the bottom of the stairs: "I didn't kill her! loved her!"  The jury is swayed, and finds him not guilty.

Later, Merritt runs into Liam (Patrick Kennedy), who points out that Defense didn't object to her line of questioning.  Why not?  Because she was digging herself into a hole.  And the Boss, who agrees: "you went too far."

N*de Patrick Kennedy on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends.

Scene 3: The miraculously alive Acerbic Mentor, Carl Mock...um, I mean Morlock...er, Mork from Ork...ok, Morck -- walks past St. Mary's Cathedral to a waiting room.  Har har, he's about ready to leave, but when he sees that the psychiatrist is hot, he high-tails it into her office. 

Shrink wants him to work through the trauma of being shot, but he insists that there is no trauma: he doesn't experience emotion, except for contempt for people dumber than him, which is everyone. 

Shrink: "So, are you depressed?"  

Acerbic Mentor: "Just the usual.  Wouldn't you be depressed if you were surrounded by incompetent idjits all the time?"  Why don't you just ask her out?  She's obviously turned on by superiority complexes, and I can't take a full season of sultry looks and double entendres.

Scene 4: I guess we're going to have a full season of sultry looks and double entendres.  Acerbic Mentor leaves without a date, and walks past more Edinburgh landmarks into the police station.  Everyone stares -- they figured that after being shot, he'd be out for several months, and they'd be spared his constant insults.  

I like the bloke dressed like a 1960s Flower Child.  I wonder if he's a background player or a named character.

Junior and the Tall Man Face Jesse's Army: A "Righteous Gemstones" Romance

 

Link to the n*de dudes

Note: This story takes place during Righteous Gemstones Episode 2.6.  Believing that Eli's old friend Junior Marsh (Eric Roberts) sent the Cycle Ninjas to try to assassinate him and other family members, Jesse and his men's group go to Memphis to tell him to back off.  Actually, Junior had nothing to do with the Cycle Ninjas and has no idea why Jesse is so upset:

The Southern Slam Championship was not very exciting: it was basically two tag teams pounding on each other for a crowd of about 30 people who had no idea how to watch professional wrestling.  And held at the Memphis American Legion!  Sure, Junior's assistant, the Tall Man, did his best with their limited resources, but he remembered the days when he and his father promoted the biggest names in the business, and packed the 10,000 seats in the Mid-South Coliseum -- where Elvis Presley performed!

Junior was having trouble pretending to be enthusiastic, so he asked the Tall Man for some blow, and ducked out to urinate and get high. 

His day was about to get much worse.

While he was urinating on an old arcade game, symbolically punishing his father for vanishing with the $2 million that could have saved their wrestling business, Jesse Gemstone stepped out of the shadows.

The son of his old friend Eli, who Junior visited in Charleston two weeks ago.  What was he doing here?

"D*ck is out, Playboy," he complained.  Weird thing to comment on.  Son was just like his father -- Eli couldn't take his eyes of Junior's d*ck, either, in 1972 or 2022. 

"I'm aware.  I take it out when I urinate, Jesse."

"And to do other things, too."  Twenty or more of his goons stepped up, armed with slingshots!  Jesse pointed a gun at him.

Junior tried to laugh, but he was terrified.  Was Jesse going to murder him, just because he visited an old friend?  Ok, maybe they hooked up, but when Eli called things off, he high-tailed it back to Memphis.  Ok, maybe he sent the Tall Man to smoosh a tomato on Eli's windshield, but how did a smooshed tomato warrant murder?  And what was the army for? 

"You want to kill my family?" Jesse yelled.  

"What the heck are you talking about?"  Junior asked.  How could going to bed with Eli destroy the Gemstone family?  Aimee-Leigh was long gone, so it wasn't cheating. By outing him as bi?

"How about I kill your family? Grandparents, kids, special needs. Chop their heads off!"

 "Or we could r*pe them," one of the goons yelled.

"Just the men," another goon pointed out.  "We don't r*pe women."

Putting on a brave front, Junior sassed back: "I don't have a family, wise guy.  I'm 66 years old.  You think my granddaddy is still alive?  And I don't have any kids, that I know of.  Maybe you should ask your wife."

Uh-oh, too far!  Jesse was fool enough to believe that Junior had actually slept with his wife, and shoot him to restore his manhood. 

"Only one getting r*ped tonight is you," Jesse snarled.

Junior thought about trying to run back inside, but Jesse would probably shoot him in the back.  Besides, he couldn't show fear.  So he scoffed.

"We'll...show you how we handle sickos!"

Sickos?   The stuff they did was entirely consensual!  Jesse must be a homophobic bigot.  When you're gay in the wrestling world, you encounter a lot of homophobes, but he never imagined that the Gemstones would be homophobic.  Eli was bi.  So was his brother-in-law, Baby Billy.  And didn't his son Kelvin have a boyfriend?  

 "You got some b*lls on you, boy. Reminds me of your Daddy when he was a young man.  If you and your boys have d*cks as big as his, you got yourselves a date."

While Jesse continued to aim the gun at him, the goons started pelting him with stones from the slingshots!  He tried to jump out of the way, crouch down, hide behind a dumpster.  Those darn diots were going to stone him to death!  He remembered a sermon from long ago, about a woman taken in adultery.  Jesus spared her from being stoned.  Boy, he could use Jesus right now!

"Ok, ok, I'll stay away from your family."

"Too late, boy.  The guys are riled up.  I'm afraid this is the end for you."

Harry Jowsey: New Zealand reality star, Boyfriend Material Podcaster, Onlyfans model, "Call me gay."

Link to the n*de dudes

22-year old New Zealand-based fitness model Harry Jowsey first appeared on screen on Heartbreak Island, then gained international fame on the Netflix reality series Too Hot to Handle (2020).  It was based on the Seinfeld episode "The Contest": hetero hunks and babes had to live in close quarters and remain "Master of their Domain" or "Queens of the Castle."  Harry won, and split the $100,000 prize with the other  winners.  His "smouldering s*xual tension" with some of the ladies spun him into 4 million social media followers.  

And several podcasts. In Boyfriend Material, Harry and his guests give humorous relationship advice based upon his experience of hooking up with about 200 women.

It is notable for the viral term Boyfriend D*ck, based upon Harry's description of his: No too big, not too small, looks nice, gets the job done.

More reality tv followed: Match Me If You Can, The Amazing Race Australia, Dancing with the Stars, and Perfect Match.  

Plus the upcoming movie The Wrong Paris (2025): a woman joins a reality tv show in "Paris," thinking that she's going to France, but it's the one in Texas. The women outnumber the men in the cast three to one, but there are a few hunks: Pierson Fode, Torrance Coombs, Kaden Connors (n*de on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends), and William Wilder.

Harry seems to be veering back and forth between ally and homophobe. 

In September 2021, youtuber and trans activist Nikki Dragun included a picture of him in her video.  Fans got upset: "You hooked up with a dude, man!"  

Harry had assumed that the relationship would be private, but now that it was open, he explained, Nikki Dragun is a woman.  Trans or cisgender, what's the difference.

Sounds like an ally. except in October 2021, on his Tap It podcast, he complained that "some f*ggot" was trying to hook up with him.  He was referring to makeup youtuber James Charles.  Later he apologized, and stated that he supported the LGBT community.

In 2022, Harry demonstrated his support by posting some photos wearing a dress, and fans again became irate: "That's wrong, man."

Jacob Tremblay: Gay sea monster, gay subtext Miracle, heterosexist Good Boy, Boyfriend. With Brady Noon and n*de dudes

  

Link to the n*de dudes

You probably saw Luca (2021), the Disney/Pixar animated movie about the friendship between the closeted sea monster boy (Jacob Tremblay) and a human boy named Alberto (Jack Dylan Grazer). And you were probably upset when director Enrico Casarosa vehemently denied the possibility of a gay reading of the couple.  "They're kids!  They're much too young to be gay!"   

Got it, Enrico. All boys are born heterosexual,  Gay is something that happens in adulthood.  Gay about who you invite into your bed.  Heterosexual is the Eternal Feminine that draws us to the City of God. 

Yeah, I was unhappy, too.  

But it wasn't the fault of the actors.  I heard that Jack Dylan Grazer and Jason Maybaum (general voices) are gay.  Let's see if Luca himself, Jacob Tremblay, is involved in any gay-friendly projects.

He has 43 acting credits on the IMDB, most long before Luca.  I've never heard of most of them, but there seem to be some interesting gay subtexts here and there:

Gord's Brother (2015): The human Gord and his monster brother (Jack Irvine, Raphael Alejandro) searach for the legendary City of Monsters.  Jacob plays the Young Gord.

Wonder (2017): "The incredibly inspiring and heartwarming story" of a boy with facial differences who goes to school.  How to come up with a title that gives you absolutely no clue to what the movie is about.  

There's a girl -- there's always a girl -- but he makes a male friend (Noah Jupe), too.  

Good Boys (2019): Three six-grade boys skip school to go on an "epic adventure" involving two of them (Jacob, Brady Noon) trying to win the Girls of Their Dreams (of course).  The third (Keith L. Williams) is a bullying victim who doesn't try to win a girl.  Hey, in a raunchy, heterosexist  "coming of age" comedy, I'll take any gay hints I can get.  

Will Forte plays one of the dads.

"Honest Men": South Africa-teasing, adult video-teasing, claustrophobic, confusing...but at least there are a lot of gay guys.

 

Link to the n*de dudes

Honest Men on Prime Video has a shirtless hunk on the icon and the promo: "Unraveling family dynamics, Honest Men follows Colby's return home after his father....(probably his father's death: somebody is always returning home after the death of somebody).   The cast member names sound African  (King David, Donta Hemsley, Tripp Ali), so it's probably set in South Africa, and we'll get some interesting citscapes of Johannesburg or Cape Town.

 Scene 1: Closeup of a man's back. So far so good. Suburb at night, then Colby (King David) addresses the camera, talking about his friend named Andre when he was a kid, who had a violent, abusive father  but nevertless was "s*xy as hell." While he speaks, the violent, abusive father disrobes behind him and steps into the shower.  Colby: "Don't judge me for what I'm about to do.  I was only 17."  He starts..um...you know...while watching.  Hey, a gay character! I guess he meant that the violent dad was s*xy as hell."

King David is very hard to research.  Even if you specify "King David" and "actor," you just get the many, many actors who have played the Biblical king: Russell Crowe, Daniel Craig, Clive Owen, Christian Bale, Michael Fassbender

Scene 2: 4 years later: Closeup of Colby's hands as he opens the door, puts his keys on the counter.  This is very tight, claustrophobic.  Very tight,  very claustrophobic.  I'm thinking we're not going to see Constitution Hill in Johannesburg or the Castle of Good Hope in Cape Town. 

A lengthy scene of the guy changing clothes, with very tight closeups of part of his eye and his neck.  Then a backside shot but no front.   

After watching the scene several times, just to make sure that I'm being accurate, har har, I conclude that the guy we're watching is not Colby, but Mark, the Abusive Father (Donta Hensley).

More partial body bait and switch -- you think it's more Abusive Mark, but it's actually Colby as he checks his messages: Wait -- who has an answering machine in their house anymore?  This must be Dad's apartment.  

#1: Funeral home guy complementing him on his coffin choice: "Rest in peace with our great prices."   Har har

#2: Mark the Abusive Father.  He was doing some work on Colby's Dad's fridge, and wants to stop by Saturday night to finish the job.  Saturday night?  Really?  Sounds like there's more than one job you want to finish.

 Scene 3: Semi-body part closeups as Colby answers the door.  It's Mark the Abusive Father, dressed like a refrigerator repair guy in a movie.   He suggests that Colby is taking his death hard, but no, "He stopped existing long before he died."  Some people like staying home, dude.  They got their books, their music, their Grindr hookups....

Mark remembers at Colby and Andre's graduation, Colby stood up and yelled some stuff about his Dad, who never forgave him. "Well, I hated him."

"That's weird -- my son Andre loved him."  Well, you were abusive, buddy.  

Mark confesses that he hated his son, too:  the kid came into the world and ruined his life when he was 14 years old.  "But I changed."  "Too bad my dad didn't."  Got it, Andre and Colby, both with abusive dads and hate all the way down.

Hey, these guys both have American accents.  I'm starting to think that the South African names are just a tease

Scene 4: A young man in his underwear, feeling himself, talking to himself about how "she" is going to be so impressed tonight that he'll get him some.  

Text from his mom: Tell your Dad about the graduation party. This must a flashback to the night of the graduation, where Colby yelled some stuff and Dad never forgave him.  Ergo the feeling-himself guy is Abusive Mark's son Andre.

Andre texts Dad, or rather a tight closeup of his Dad's various body parts, but instead of the grad party, it's "Submit J's grad fees before Friday."  Dad's body parts groan, hating his kid.   Wait -- Andre does not appear in this episode, and he's not named J.  This must be JTT (Tripp Ali).  A third kid with an abusive dad?

"Workaholics," Episode 1.10: Adam will do stuff with a guy for $900. Does he take credit cards?

 

The opening sequence of Workaholics Episode 1.10 is  widely condemned as homophobic, so I'm doing a deep reading.  

The setup: While driving to work, dudebros Adam (Adam Devine), Blake (Blake Andersoon), and Ders (Anders Holm) are having a random conversation.

Ders: "For $100,000, would you [do stuff with a man]?  That's a legitimate question.  A lot of hustlersare actually straight, but go with men as part of the job.  Their rates vary from $50 to $200. I'm not telling you how I know that.

Adam: A man's stuff?  I don't know...  Why does he emphasize "man"?   

Blake: You get to pick the dude.

Adam: Final d*ck approval?   Choose any d*ck I want to?

Ders: Whoever's d*ck except for me and Blake.  Darn, those would have been his first choice.  $100,000?

As you can see, it gets a lot more explicit, so I'll finish up at the NSFW website, RG Beefcake and Boyfriends

Aaron Carter: The golden boy of the fall of 2000 comes out as bi, shows his d*ck, has a hard life. Brother Nick: "Hurts to love you."

Link to Aaron's n*de photos

Aaron Carter, the younger brother of Nick Carter of The Backstreet Boys, burst into teen idol fame with his debut album (entitled Aaron Carter, naturally), released in 1997, when he was just nine years old. It sold a million copies.  A second album, Aaron's Party: Come and Get It (2000), sold two million copies and peaked at #4 on the U.S. charts.  

To those who were young in the fall of 2000, songs like "Bounce," "Aaron's Party," and a highly risque version of "I Want Candy" became symbols of a golden age of innocence,  became an icon of the fall of 2000, along with "Who Let the Dogs Out," "Kryptonite," and "Dance with Me."

 

The sizzling star appeared as himself on Sabrina the Teenage Witch (2001) and Lizzie McGuire (2001), and started high-profile romances with Hilary Duff (Lizzie) and Lindsey Lohan (The Parent Trap).

New albums were released in 2001 and 2002, but in the post-911, War on Terror world, that golden age seemed impossibly naive, and Aaron's star faded.  He continued to tour and release new songs, but none of them charted.  Focusing on his acting, he played:

Harry (one of the daughter's boyfriends) on two episodes of 7th Heaven (2004)

A classmate of the live action Fat Albert (left, with Shedrach Taylor III as Rudy).

A Hannah Montana-like incognito popstar in Popstar (2005).  Former popstars David Cassidy and Leif Garrett (right) appeared.

Marty in I Want Someone to Eat Cheese With (2006), with Jeff Garlin (soon to star in The Goldberg) as a man looking for someone to each cheese with.
