OMG, how cute: Sharpei puppy

Oh little wrinkly, whimpering thing: Why are you on the bathroom counter listening to opera? (via poeTV)

OMG, he's naked: Jonathan Chase

Young actor Jonathan Chase doesn't have a whole lot to his filmography, but what a way to start his career in Another Gay Movie! Not only does he strip down, but he engages in some pretty explicit on-screen man loving. I think that his "versatility" will take him far. See what I mean after the jump [NSFW].

[[OMG there's more! READ THE REST]]

OMG, it works (sort of): Electroshock therapy

Anyone who's read The Bell Jar probably thinks of electroshock therapy as some outmoded, dangerous and useless piece of medical "technology" that is locked away in the annals of history never to be used again. They would be wrong.

Doctors still use it today for a variety of mental illnesses, and here's the surprise: It works, at least for a while until you need it again.

From Ann Bauer's Salon article:

They can't say exactly why it works, only that it does, swiftly and consistently, in roughly 90 percent of catatonia cases, and 60-70 percent of patients with severe depression, mania and intractable psychosis. Recently, neurologists have begun recommending regular electroconvulsive therapy sessions for patients with movement disorders, such as Parkinson's, saying that it minimizes tremors and reduces the need for drugs such as L-dopa, which has notoriously negative side effects. (ECT has proved ineffective, however, when used for dysthymia, anxiety, substance abuse and personality disorders.)

I wonder if I can get electroshock to make myself wake up before 9:30am.

Sinead gives us 'Sweet Dreams'

This is a collaboration we might never see again: Sinéad O'Connor, Kylie Minogue, and Natalie Imbruglia singing "Sweet Dreams" while wearing ridiculous wigs. The setting was a 1998 tribute concert for musician Dave Stewart (of Eurythmics fame). Sinéad definitely steals the show. (via Sticky, link NSFW)

Brazil will have its own TV Top Model

It's official: Brazil's Top Model is a go, and word on the street is that Gisele Bundchen will be its host! Considering the origins of most of today's supermodels, I would expect Canada and Brazil to produce the most worthy contestants. Of course, Canada does not know how to do a good reality TV show (hence Jay Manuel as the host of CNTM season 2), so we have to pin all our hopes on Brazil, who definitely got it right with all the huge, swinging penis on Big Brother: Brazil. I hope there will be subtitled episodes on the Internet somewhere! (via Made In Brazil)

(Image Source)

Harry Potter stars Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint were in London yesterday for the premiere of the new Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix [official site], which is opening everywhere else in the world on July 11, which is incidentally two days before my birthday! I can't wait.

OMG, how real: Grand Theft Auto IV

If Grand Theft Auto: Vice City wasn't enough to fully immerse you into the seedy underbelly of violent crime, then Grand Theft Auto IV for the new, super high-tech Playstation III platform should have no problem doing it. Hopefully, there's a secret gay cheat code a la Bully. (via Feyfriends)
