   Alexa is dumber than Siri and Google Assistant

   Loup Ventures has conducted its Digital Assistant IQ test, asking Google Assistant, Siri, and Alexa the same 800 questions each. Cortana and Bixby weren’t part of the research, which was conducted on Siri on iOS 12.4, Google Assistant on Pixel XL running Android 9 Pie, and Alexa via the iOS app. The 800 questions were split in 5 categories (local, commerce, navigation, information, and commands), and the rating system was looking at both how well the query was understood by the assistant, as well as delivery of the correct response.

   (Joel's Note: Before you read, this piece is clearly a satire. In no way is this piece genuine at all. At the same time, I think it does bring up some important issues in the myriad way that Google controls, tracks, and assists our everyday lives.) Gift, valued by donor at over $1 trillion, is said to be the largest ever MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA - In a stunning announcement, Eric Schmidt, head of Alphabet, Inc., the holding company that owns Google, said today in a press conference at Google’s headquarters in Mountain View, California, that at midnight on New Year’s Eve of this year, the iconic Google search engine will become property of a new nonprofit organi…

   From Florida to Alaska, America’s LGBTQ Bars Feel Like Home to Many By Alexander Chee

   One of my favorite memories of working at Tunnel Bar in New York City in 1991 is when a striking Black queen walked in off the street and shook my hand as if I owned the place. I was just a 24-year-old barback. “Hello, I’m Kevin Aviance, House of Aviance, and I’ve moved to New York to take over.” I nodded as if agreeing. And how that is exactly what happened next. The Kevin Aviance story could be Season 3 of Pose. In the 1990s, as I first started going to find community in what we called gay bars then, I developed a theory of their names. The first category was Address Only, like the 520 in Iowa City. The second was Double Entendre But Vague, like The Underground, in…

   It's a pity our member of the month June/July has been unavailable to BGP most of the month, kind of ironic. Let's reminize the days when he was very available to BGP with his MANIFESTO. I hope he's been busy listening.

   My Gay Fantasy

   I've always had this fantasy. From the time I was a teenage boy. I meet a couple of black men at a friends party. We get to talking about camping, fishing and general outdoor stuff. I really like these guys and kind of follow them around the party all evening. Finally one of then turns to me and says "you want to be our bitch or something? You've been shadowing us all night." With that bit of humiliation, I back off, grab a ******* and sooth my wounded ego in the corner all by myself. I can still watch these guys mingling through the people. Lots of girls are gladly chatting these two guys up. Well I could see why. Both these men were extremely handsome, in fantastic athl…

Do you think America should commit to Obama's previous promise to allow refugees from Australia? Or does Trump have every prerogative to review and vet each refugee?

    The Presidential Race Just Got Weirder

    Queerty | Credit This is Joe Exotic, and he’s got pretty much everything going for him. He’s not cutting his hair. He’s not changing the way he dresses. He refuses to wear a suit. He’s gay. He’s has had two boyfriends most of his life, and he recently got married. He’s had kinky sex, tried drugs, and is” broke as shit.” Plus, and perhaps most crucially, he has a judgement against him from “some bitch down there in Florida.” And in the video below, flanked by live lions and tigers, he’s stepping his foot in the ring and running for President of the United States. Joel's Note: Can this Presidential race be any weird…

    Wentworth Miller, discussing his decision to come out and the inner workings of the Hollywood system in the November issue of Attitude: Do you think it's safer for gay Hollywood actors to hide in the closet until after they achieve fame? Do you think Hollywood is naturally prejudiced towards gay? What are your thoughts on the gay ceiling in Hollywood?

    This LGBT-Bashing Bumper Sticker on a Pro-Trump Car Will Make You Sick

    According to Pink News, the opposite image of a Pride flag attacking the Confederate flag was available as well, but it seems that all options have now been (rightfully) removed from the site. In fact, the link to Fast Decals in the article now leads to an image of a peace sign that's made of half Pride/half Confederate flags. We're not sure this is the best follow-up, but considering its predecessor at least we don't want to throw up over it. It's also worth noting that Trump sticker on the car in the tweet above is not technically connected to the decal, but, hey, it's also probably not a coincidence either. In a diabolical election year, this was exactly what we n…

    Cast Off Your Election Woes with a ‘Pantsuit Power’ Flashmob for Hillary

    Okay, so flashmobs may be so 2011, but this rainbow-colored ‘pantsuit power’ flashmob for Hillary Clinton is just the bright spot needed in the final dog days of this election. Directors Celia Rowlson-Hall and Mia Lidofsky and choreographers Celia and Crishon Landers put together the flashmob which took place on October 2 in NYC’s Union Square. Set to the tune of Justin Timberlake’s “Can’t Stop the Feeling”, the assembled congregation trotted out their best and most colorful pantsuits to dance for Hillary. The video closes with a list of reasons why the dancers support Hillary. The first on the list is “love is love.” It might be basic, but it’s also d…

    By MATT SEDENSKY, AP National Writer | Thursday, October 20, 2016 | Bilerico Report | Credit DALLAS (AP) — The voices cascade into the studio, denouncing political hypocrisy and media bias and disappearing values. Hillary Clinton is a liar and a crook, they say; Donald Trump is presidential and successful. By the time the 16th caller reaches the air, Rick Roberts’ show has reached an impassioned crescendo of anger and lamentation. What has happened to this once-great land? What has happened to the better lives our children were promised? What has happened? Roberts, WBAP’s bearded, rodeo-roping, husky-voiced host, has heard enough. “I want m…

    Sean Spicer Spoofed by SNL

    White House press secretary Sean Spicer (Melissa McCarthy) and secretary of education nominee Betsy DeVos (Kate McKinnon) take questions from the press. From Politico: And the devastating “Saturday Night Live” caricature of Spicer that aired over the weekend — in which a belligerent Spicer was spoofed by a gum-chomping, super soaker-wielding Melissa McCarthy in drag — did not go over well internally at a White House in which looks matter. More than being lampooned as a press secretary who makes up facts, it was Spicer’s portrayal by a woman that was most problematic in the president’s eyes, according to sources close to him. And the unflattering send-up by …
