Talk To The Hand...

Handy
Natalie Portman

T.G.I.F! It's time for a jazz hand, or perhaps it's Thing from the Addams Family? Maybe, just maybe we all are supposed to be Born To Hand Jive?

Whatever the case it seems to me Natalie Portman, is handy? Perhaps handsome? Or something...

Ever so often life gets curiouser and curiouser - "Yes" what I am trying to say is this is some straight outta Alice in Wonderland sh!t!

Honestly, this is one funky photo.

File it under: Who thought this was a good idea??? (it wasn't, but damn it is fodder for the mind)

Seasons of Love
Michael Shinafelt

 "Remember the love...(Sing out, give out, measure your life In looooooove...!)" - Seasons of Love, Rent

In case you weren't aware it's Pride Month. "Yes" Minions it's one of the seasons of love. Pride Month is to commemorate the Stonewall riots, which occurred at the end of June 1969. As a result, many pride events are held during this month to recognize the impact LGBT people have had in the world.

It is also about unity, equality and as mentioned before, love. When in doubt that is my go to place, I hope today finds you all in a groovy mood, I know I'm in one 😎

Taylor Swift is a force of nature. She broke the record for vinyl sales last week!!!

Be yourself, who else is better qualified? I ask you? 

A shirtless Christopher Meloni doing push-ups opened last weeks episode of Organized Crime. That's it, this is all I need to say.

Nostalgia is a lying bitch, she will convince a time in your life was amazing when it was actually awful. live in the present Minions

Come outside, no one is going to jump you

Finally saw Parasite, it actually lived up to the hype

Let’s maybe consider just blocking the people with horrible takes today as opposed to quote tweeting them into your already weary friends’ timelines. RE: Seasons of Love

Hump Day & Chill

Hey Mickey!

Since we had the lovely Ms. Cara Delevigne kick off Pride Month yesterday I thought it only fitting that we Hump Day & Chill to a Pride hunk today.

Behold Mickey, is he so fine he blows your mind? That's yours to define, all I know is he fits the description of hunk and is waving a Pride Flag while baring his supple booty.

Hey what else do you need in a Pride edition of Hump Day & Chill??? I thought as much, now I shall move on.

Mickey comes to us courtesy of Tye Briggs Favorite Hunks & Other Things, that's if you click on the link below. Oh, and I know you will.

Hump Day & Chill Minions!

Happy Pride Month!

Express Yourself
Cara Delevigne

It's June the first Minions, and as per usual the month of June is Pride Month. I thought we should kick off the month with a roar. That noise belonging to one Ms. Cara Delevigne 

Cara recently gave an interview to one of my favorite magazines, Paper and they asked the question of her "Starting off, what does Pride mean to you?" 

Her answer was so great that I thought it was to perfect way to christen Pride Month right here, right now. "Yes" here it is...

"I think Pride, for me, is accepting wherever I am that day. As in, I am proud to be wherever I feel in that moment. Growing up, I didn't feel a lot of pride at all – I was quite scared. I was fearful. I was in hiding. I think many people in the community know what it's like to have to hide part of yourself. So to be proud is to really be able to feel free to shout from the rooftop, 'This is who I am, take it or leave it. I love myself.' And there is nothing anyone can do about it. I think that's truly inspirational and truly something I wish I had as a teenager, but how inspired I am by people and teenagers and young people who can do that"

Preach!

Monday Motivation

Downward Gaga
Lady Gaga

It's Memorial Day and I  am getting myself ready and focused for the week ahead, thus it's time for some good old fashioned Monday Motivation in the form of yoga.

Here we see Lady Gaga striking a yoga pose, me?! I will be striking my pose adjacent to the Douglas Fairbanks Memorial in the Hollywood Forever Cemetery this ayem. 

"Yes" that's correct Minions Hollywood Forever has been having yoga there for a majority of the Pandemic and it is real and spectacular. Not to mention quiet and I have yet to see any dead people, just their markers.

So gird your loins and get all downward dog with me, won't you? Or perhaps take a hike.

Yoga is my jam and exactly the Monday Motivation I need to clear my head and make me chill for the week ahead.

What's on your  agenda?

Saturday Sinema: What's Up Doc?

When I saw that my buddy Jay Jacobson wrote up one of my favorite comedies of all time What's Up Doc? on his classic movie blog, well I just had to share his insights and knowledge with all of you!

It stars Ryan O'Neal and Barbara Streisand along with the great Madeline Kahn.

Rather than me carry on, how about I leave you in Jay's expert hands with the link to his great write-up below. Sounds like the perfect plan to me. 

Enjoy the magic Minions!
