Melting the Sacred: Cosimo Cavallaro’s “Passion of the Crust” and the Body in Transformation

In a world where art often tiptoes around discomfort, Cosimo Cavallaro has built a career on walking directly into it—barefoot, unflinching, and deeply human. His latest work, Passion of the Crust, is no exception. A life-sized chocolate sculpture of a transgender Jesus slowly melting over the course of hours, the piece is as much a performance as it is a meditation on identity, embodiment, and what remains when everything we cling to dissolves.

The “T & A” of a Las Vegas Burlesque

In a recent “5 Martini Lunch,” Las Vegas PRIDE had the opportunity to chat with one of our favorite local and vocal Burlesque performers. We chatted about strong men and women, strong cocktails, and, most importantly, the challenges of vaudeville/burlesque authenticity in performance in this “model type” home we call Las Vegas Entertainment! Lou Lou Roxy and Norma had a great afternoon!

Laughing Through the Loneliness: Danny Will Die Alone

By the time Danny Will Die Alone premieres its third, and now final, season on Dekkoo this February, creator Jack Tracy will have completed one of the most unlikely arcs in contemporary queer television. What began as short-form webisodes posted to OnlyFans has grown into a fully realized half-hour comedy series and one of Dekkoo’s most successful originals. It’s a trajectory rooted not in algorithmic luck or studio backing, but in something far more radical: honesty about sex, dating, and the loneliness that persists even when liberation is promised. Season Three doesn’t arrive quietly. Set six months after the provocative polyamory cliffhanger that closed Season Two, the new episodes plunge headfirst into fallout: emotional, sexual, and ideological. Poly relationships fracture, hookup patterns repeat, and Danny’s search for intimacy spills into speed dating, amateur porn platforms, divorcees, and New York City sex parties. It’s funny, uncomfortable, horny, and crucially, sad.

Stroked, Seen and Celebrated

May has long been celebrated as Masturbation Month, but few platforms embrace the occasion with as much unapologetic enthusiasm as BateWorld. This year, the world’s largest online masturbation community for men returns with the fifth season of its wildly popular reality competition series, The Great BateWorld BateOff!, a show that blends erotic performance, personal exploration, and community interaction into one undeniably horny spectacle.
