The Internet Seems to Really Care About Who People (and Desus Nice) Are Fucking
After watching a new episode of Desus and Mero, I hopped on the Google machine and searched Desus’ name. This is one of the first pages I came across.
Mike Tyson as Oprah and Snoop Dogg as Gayle
The real possible threat and harm of deepfake videos in our society is making the rounds in the media. Due to the potential threats and the technological capabilities, the Pentagon and DARPA are frantically attempting to get ahead of Deepfakes. According to Wikipedia, Deepfake is…
Jak Knight Jokes About Making Out With a Dude
We’ve talked about Black male comedians and their over the top anti-homosexual jokes before on the site which is why I was shocked at the opening joke in Jak Knight’s routine. Not only was it funny and deemed ‘gay’ but his nonchalantness and matter-of-factness concerning…
Did Lil Nas X Just Michael Sam His Career?
Lil Nas X has been riding a wave of success and controversy since releasing his hit Old Town Road. First he initially received discriminatory backlash from country music industry execs and country music fans. Then racist whites began to boycott Wrangler Jeans when the company…
Acknowledging The Greatness Of Nas’ ‘I Gave You Power’
A recommended video came across my screen titled ‘Metal Heads React to I Gave You Power by Nas’. Being an uber Nas fan, I clicked to see the content. The video simplistically matched the title. Two white guys (who happen to be Metal/Rock afficandos who…
Billy Porter is a Consequence of his own making
Billy Porter recently had a round table with The Hollywood Reporter and spoke about the “double layer” of discrimination he feels he’s faced in Hollywood. In a nutshell, even with all his talents, creativity, critical acclaim and awards for his theater career; he was/is being…

Watch Gay Short Film – GOLD STAR

Watch Gay Short Film – SPORTS!
The short film SPORTS tells what happens when your thirsty fem leaning roommate wants to go play basketball with you, just so he can see the guy you’re going to play with take his shirt off. The short is directed by Kyle Keiger and stars…
BMX MASTER – BRAD SIMMS
I hadn’t watched a BMX racing event or an X Games in years. Honestly, while the sport embraces hip hop, alternative culture, I hadn’t seen to many dudes that look like me. That ended this week when I stepped onto an elliptical machine at the…
That Time Judge Mathis Reigned Hell On Wendy Williams
Unlike large swaths of the Black gay community, I’m not and have never been a fan of gossip queen Wendy Williams. Her fame and fortune is primarily built off of other celebrities’ (primarily Black) misery whether truthful or unfounded. This is why I’m unsympathetic of…
Terminator Dark Fate Trailer Gave Me Tucker Carlson Face
November will mark the release of the sixth installment in the Terminator franchise. I don’t hide the fact that I’m hypersensitive to sci-fi films set in the future – while post-apocalyptic – still seem to be a utopia of whiteness. I understand in Hollywood Black…
Netflix’s Black Mirror Season 5 Trailers
The new season of Netflix’s Black Mirror is shorter than a smurf with only three episodes…yep three. Nonetheless I’m sure it will be an emotional and jolting ride which is to be expected from the sci-fi anthology series. This new season features Anthony Mackie, Miley…
Lafayette’s Greatest Hits
Many years ago Cypher Avenue highlighted 13 of the Best Black non-heterosexual characters in film and television. Many reader’s favorite characters were not listed which caused some criticism.
