Pennsylvania State Representative Brain Sims has long been an object of my affection, although the closest we’ve ever come is me saying hello and Brian smiling back or waving to me from the Boatslip in Provincetown.

Back in 2014 I wrote a post Lusting after Brian Sims, where I said:

“Imagine my frustration when I Googled “Shirtless Brian Sims” hoping to feature him as this week’s Furry Friday (he MUST have a hairy chest) and nothing came up?!? Where is the justice?  Has Brian never been photographed without his shirt? I think Pennsylvanians should immediately pass a law mandating Brian should be photographed shirtless.”

The legislation I requested was never brought up – much less put to a vote, but apparently Sims has been dating a handsome and talented Canadian named Mark MacKillop. Mark studied ballet here in Boston and at the American Ballet Theatre in NYC, and he is currently on tour with the traveling Broadway production of Anastasia. Earlier this summer the two of them spent some time at Fire Island where I believe the shirtless photo was taken – Hallelujah!

Here are 50+ suggestions for things to do in and around Boston. Suggestions range from Queer Tango to a discussion hosted by The History project about 3 lesbians on the front lines of Boston’s AIDS crisis to opening nights for three plays The Crucible, Choir Boy and Nixon’s Nixon.

This weekend there is a lot happening including National Gay Pilots Association: Cape Cod Classic (in Ptown), Riverfest 2019,  2019 Boston Local Food Festival and Open Newbury Street.

And finally, shout outs to these parties that look like a lot of fun: FUZZ on Friday, Ultra Violet Glow Party on Saturday and Tea Dance Diva Battle Round 1: Madonna Vs Gaga this Sunday.
