Jake Wilson is back with another musical short, this time dishing up a Weird Al-esque parody of Ariana Grande and Iggy Azalea’s summer smash, “Problem”, re-named “SPF,” that also features Rumer Willis and Constantine Rousouli. As you get ready to spend your weekend worshipping the sun, take a moment to remind yourself of the virtues of using protection.
Watch Wilson and some shirtless friends rub on some SPF, AFTER THE JUMP…
You can also see Wilson’s previous musical shorts HERE and HERE.

Tara Reid: A 'sharknado' could really happen.
Crime Survey of England and Wales: 1/3 of gay and bisexual men did illegal drugs last year. "The Times reports drug use by gay and bisexual men was three times higher than for straight men and was higher in the majority of individual drugs consumed including cocaine, ecstasy, amphetamines and cannabis."
Daniel Radcliffe say sobriety = good sex. “I’m one of the few people who seem to have had a really good first time,” he told Elle. “It was with somebody I’d gotten to know well. I’m happy to say I’ve had a lot better sex since then, but it wasn’t as horrendously embarrassing as a lot of other people’s were—like my friend who got drunk and did it with a stranger under a bridge.”
The Warwick Rowers are back and haven't found their clothes yet, thankfully.

Gay couples deliver petitions to Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi's office: "On Thursday, same-sex couples walked into Bondi's Tallahassee office and delivered 7,000 petitions signed by Floridians asking her to 'stop wasting taxpayer resources defending the state's discriminatory exclusion of gay and lesbian couples from marriage.'"
Gay U.S. military spouses get a bit of protection in Italy: "A new agreement between the Defense Department and the Italian government will allow same-sex military spouses to move to U.S. bases in Italy as command sponsored dependents."
Unearthed footprints suggest T Rex hunted in packs: "The ferocious beasts may have 'stuck together as a pack to increase their chances of bringing down prey and individually surviving,' said study co-author Richard McCrea, a curator at the Peace Region Palaeontology Center in Canada."

Feds to ban alcohol on some Fire Island beaches: "The ban will go into effect on Aug. 1 on federal lands in the Town of Islip between the communities of Atlantique and Corneille Estates. It's being enacted by the Fire Island National Seashore. The ban was prompted by alcohol-fueled parties on the beach."
Michelangelo Signorile on the idiocy of the New York Giants hiring David Tyree: "It's time for David Tyree to take back every word he said and tell us of his amazing evolution to being a full-blown supporter of equality. If he can't do that, the Giants have to give him the boot if they and the NFL want to maintain any credibility and dignity."
Empire State Pride Agenda blasts Tyree hire: "The NFL, the New York Giants and all who represent those two brands have a responsibility to their players and to the millions of people who support their right to exist. They need to make decisions about who joins their ranks based on how they will best represent the players, the brand, the fans, the sport, and the values of the team’s home state. There’s no room for discrimination in that."

The actor shared the below image with the caption, "I will stare at your genitalia until u feed me.... #dogpsychology." No doubt, some humans would make a similar declaration were they fortunate to be in the same position as this canine. #humanpsychology

A ComRes poll commissioned by the Christian Institute shows that 60% of respondents think no legal action should be taken against a bakery in Northern Ireland that refused to make a cake for an LGBTI activist group, reports Pink News.
Earlier this month we reported that Ashers Baking Company refused an order for a cake which was to be decorated with the slogan “Support Gay Marriage,” a logo for QueerSpace, and an image of Bert and Ernie from Sesame Street.
The Equality Commission for Northern Ireland said that refusing to make the cake amounted to discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation and wrote to Ashers asking that it remedy the situation within seven days or be taken to court.
However, the Christian Institute poll shows that 60% do not approve of legal action against the bakery. Additionally, 80% of those polled over the aged of 65 disagree with legal action.
In a similar ongoing case in Colorado, Denver baker Jack Phillips has appealed an order from the Colorado Civil Rights Commission requiring him to prepare wedding cakes for same-sex couples. Phillips said that although he has no problem with LGBTI people, he disagrees with same-sex marriage. He has also stated that he would rather close down his business than make cakes for same-sex weddings.

A group of trans women in Colombia have decided to combat transphobia by forming an all-trans football club.
Mariana, who was crowned Ms. Trans last year, says “with the World Cup, we are honouring and are proud of Colombia. We are trans, but we are still Colombians, and we want to be involved in Colombian society.”
Another team member adds, “We hope there will be acceptance from the community with our game. There is a tendency to fear what you don’t understand. This is a way for people to get to know us.”
Watch the Vocativ report, AFTER THE JUMP...
