Police have arrested Ahmad Khan Rahami in connection with the weekend bombing in New York, according to The New York Times.

Rahami was taken into custody Monday morning after a shootout with police in Linden, New Jersey.

The Saturday bombing bomb injured 29 people in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan. A second bomb was discovered four blocks away.

A similar explosion was detonated earlier Saturday in New Jersey's Seaside Park area.

Authorities believe Rahami was seen on camera walking to the site of the explosion in New Yok and the site where the second device was found a few blocks away.

His last known address was Elizabeth, New Jersey--the same area where a backpack of explosives was discovered Sunday evening.

Halloween is the one time of year when everyone and anyone can dress up like, well, everyone and anyone with nearly no recourse (costume depending). Historically speaking, when homosexuality and cross-dressing was still very not-legal, Halloween gave the queens and queers alike permission to dress to express – corseted, contoured, and blended in with everybody else. And that has never changed. Keep Reading →

This Russian gay couple deserves U.S. refuge, not persecution

Filipp and Danil fled Russia together, hand in hand. They escaped the same police who raided queer gatherings, the same mobs who outed and hunted gay men for sport.

I'm gay, and recently I've started to feel very resentful or hateful towards other guys, the better-looking ones. I'm a bear in the community, probably not very attractive. They seem to have such an easy time getting dates or sex. My choices are slim unless I go to the city (I live in a small town). Even then, I don't get much notice. Keep Reading →
