How to Bounce Back After A Financial Setback

June 8, 2020 By Scot I. Billeaudeau, JD, LL.M. ADPA®

Many Americans at one point or another will deal with an unexpected event that has financial implications. As a financial advisor, I’ve witnessed many families encounter – and more importantly overcome – financial setbacks. For most families I work with, setbacks occur because of circumstances beyond their control, such as a job layoff, a car accident, a house fire or the onset … [Read more...] about How to Bounce Back After A Financial Setback

Public Health in Your Hands

June 8, 2020 By Chenier Reynolds-Montz

Across the United States and around the world, face masks are highly recommended, if not required, when going out in public.  Some people wear masks; some wear gloves.  Others wear both.  While wearing a mask helps protect others from potentially being exposed to deadly COVID-19, we need to be aware of proper protocols for disposing of these daily-use … [Read more...] about Public Health in Your Hands

Larry Kramer and Acting Up in New Orleans

June 7, 2020 By Frank Perez

I remember exactly where I was the first time I heard Larry Kramer’s name: my friend Eddie’s deathbed in an AIDS hospice in Wichita, Kansas. I was working as a bartender at the time and Eddie was in construction.  We, along with a few other guys, were sharing a house, and Eddie & I had become the best of friends.  He was positive when I met him and seemed healthy as a … [Read more...] about Larry Kramer and Acting Up in New Orleans

Video Conferencing Enables Socially Distant Face-to-Face Communication

June 6, 2020 By Charles Pizzo

For those of us who choose or need to stay in isolation during the pandemic, being alone is a factor that cannot be ignored. On the one hand, the need to protect one’s physical health is obvious. But, on the other hand, being by oneself all or most of the time can be negative to mental health. Many of us are social animals. Regardless of whether you’re introverted or … [Read more...] about Video Conferencing Enables Socially Distant Face-to-Face Communication

The Normal Heart: AIDS/COVID/Resilience

June 5, 2020 By Catherine Roland

On May 27, the world lost a giant in the history of the LGBTQ community, Larry Kramer, noted author, playwright, producer, public health advocate, LGBTQ rights activist, and so much more. Those who do not know his story will hopefully learn about him through the multitude of articles and documentaries that will certainly show up in the near future. In order to gain a sense of … [Read more...] about The Normal Heart: AIDS/COVID/Resilience

Filthy Whore SEEKS Hopeless Romantic

June 4, 2020 By Ryan Rockford

As with any relationship, there are so many questions that two men have to answer and negotiate in a romance’s fledgling stage; it can make for a rocky start for anyone who isn’t prepared for the doors of communication to be blown open. Considering the times we live in, one of the questions that many find uncomfortable (including myself) is: Will your new relationship be “open” … [Read more...] about Filthy Whore SEEKS Hopeless Romantic

Trodding the Boards June 2, 2020

June 3, 2020 By Brian Sands

Jeremy Jordan will be appearing in The Seth Concert Series

NOLA’s Theater Scene I really, really, really, really wish I could tell you that curtains will momentarily be going up around town. But that would be fake news and there’s enough of that out there already (Hydroxychloroquine or bleach anybody?) Instead, if you’d like to see local entertainers, there are a number of opportunities online. Here are some of … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards June 2, 2020

LGBTQ Horoscopes June 2-15, 2020

June 2, 2020 By Dan Beck

Y’all have been reading this column since its inception last August. Inceptions are important, as they are the beginning of something *hopefully* special. I’ve always written this column with the intent to entreat you, dear reader, to stop, observe the moment in which you find yourself, and participate in a ritual with your horoscope.  This is not much different from … [Read more...] about LGBTQ Horoscopes June 2-15, 2020

Kicking ASS with Tez Anderson: An Interview

June 2, 2020 By Jim Meadows

Tez Anderson has been an advocate for gay rights and HIV survivors since the 1980s, and he went public about his HIV status decades before it became routine to do so. He has written for Time, co-written a screenplay with Armistead Maupin, and was a creative consultant for the original Tales of the City television mini-series. Sir Ian McKellen has personally credited Tez with … [Read more...] about Kicking ASS with Tez Anderson: An Interview

The “Official” Dish June 1, 2020: Southern Decadence, Pride, and Open Businesses

June 1, 2020 By Tomy Acosta

June is Pride month.  In normal times, we would be compiling a list of all the Pride events throughout the Gulf South for our Official Pride Guide.  I would be making a last-minute run to the store to buy more throws for the New Orleans Pride Parade.  Well, as we all know by now, these are not normal times.  The COVID-19 pandemic has changed every … [Read more...] about The “Official” Dish June 1, 2020: Southern Decadence, Pride, and Open Businesses
