KERRVILLE, TXPromising grieving Texans he would do everything in his power to make things right in the wake of last weeks deadly floods, Sen. Ted Cruz assured his constituents Wednesday that he was working tirelessly to get the rest of his Greek vacation refunded. I have spent countless hours on the phone persuading Capital One to dispute the $1,000 charge for the private Santorini boat tour I had to miss, said Cruz, seeking to comfort residents who lost homes and loved ones by revealing that he had relentlessly fought the Four Seasons in Athens to refund the cost of his room after his trip was tragically cut short. This is indeed a dark day for Texas, but I swear to you, I am working nonstop to get United to waive the ridiculous penalty I had to pay to change my flight. I realize more than anyone that merely getting a suite comped for a future stay at the Mykonos Riviera Hotel and Spa cannot possibly begin to ease the pain of losing ones cash. I promise you this: I will find a way to keep my loyalty points. Refund efforts are well under way.

From trauma bonding to love bombing, it seems like there is always a new toxic relationship behavior causing discourse on social media, but now there is a new dating trend on everyones lips: floodlighting.And no, were not talking about those bright lights in parking lots. Floodlighting is a dating trend where people overshare traumatic experiences in a brand-new relationship as a way to cement a bond.It may not be exclusive to LGBTQ+ relationships, but the queer community is uniquely susceptible to both floodlighting a new partner or being a victim of this technique that can be done unintentionally or as a premeditated manipulation technique.To breakdown why floodlighting is such a problem, how it impacts queer relationships, and what you can do if youre being floodlighted, PRIDE talked to Laurel Roberts-Meese, the clinical director at Laurel Therapy Collective, double-board-certified psychiatrist Dr. Hamilton Gaiani, and licensed professional counselor at Being Real Allison Briggs.So what exactly is floodlighting?Its when someone discloses deeply personal or emotionally intense information early in a relationship not for the sake of authentic connection, but to gain control, closeness, or reassurance. Its an attempt to bypass the natural progression of trust-building, Briggs tells PRIDE.Author Bren Brown coined the in her book Daring Greatly: How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead as way to explain the behavior of people who use intense oversharing as a way of soothing ones pain, testing the loyalty and tolerance in a relationship, and/or hot-wiring a new connection to speed through the early stages of a relationship where you are slowly building trust and emotional closeness. Floodlighting is used to gain control and closeness, rather than to build an authentic connection.Floodlighting is a controlling action where an individual deliberately bombards their partner with exaggerated emotional reactions or comments, typically to make the other individual doubt their own senses or reality, Dr. Gaiani explains. Its a controlling action to disorient the other individual, typically to deflect attention from the real problems or control the situation. The action is emotionally draining and can be extremely harmful to one's mental health.Is floodlighting common in LGBTQ+ relationships?Floodlighting can happen in any type of relationship, but queer people are more likely to floodlight a partner or be the victim of this toxic dating behavior.People usually floodlight a new partner as a way to create the illusion of intimacy and deeper connection, but it may happen even more in LGBTQ+ relationships because same-sex or T4T may fall into this trap more easily since they may already feel a deeper sense of connection over shared social and lived experiences, Roberts-Meese says. Queer people are often dating within a small community that can feel close-knit and crave found family which can lead people to fall prey to floodlighting or be more likely to floodlight a partner without recognizing how toxic the behavior can be. Identity-related trauma (like being outed, family rejection, discrimination) and histories of marginalization are often shared to build a sense of belonging or visibility, but with floodlighting, those shared experiences are brought up too early in an attempt to manipulate. LGBTQ+ people have a greater need to create community and found family, especially if they have experienced family, religious, or community rejection, she explains.It may also be harder to break away from a partner who is a toxic floodlighter if youre queer. Internalized issues, stigma and social pressure within the LGBTQ+ community may complicate an individual's ability to recognize or stop abusive relationship patterns, Dr. Gaiani says.Six signs of floodlighting1. Emotionally dumping on a new partner without consent before trust or a deep connection has been established.2. Sharing graphic details of abuse, trauma, or family estrangement on the first or second date.3. Quickly disclosing past suicidal ideation or mental health diagnosis in a way that puts pressure on the new partner to become responsible for your emotional well-being.4. Oversharing details of past failed relationships to bond and secure trust.5. Sharing a traumatic experience that you havent fully processed with someone you just met.6. Divulging things to a brand new partner that you havent shared with friends, family, or a therapist first.Love bombing and trauma bonding vs. floodlightingFloodlighting can seem similar to love bombing because it is overwhelming the partner emotionally, but love bombing generally starts out as an attempt to control through the guise of affection or attention, Dr. Gaiani explains. Floodlighting, however, will tend to use confusion and emotional manipulation in an attempt to destabilize the partner. Floodlighting also shares some characteristics with trauma bonding, where the person becomes emotionally hooked on someone who is toxic or manipulative because of the highs and lows of the behavior on an emotional level.While floodlighting can be incredibly toxic and manipulative, some people also do it unconsciously as a way to deal with loneliness, anxiety, or unprocessed trauma as opposed to doing it with malicious intent, Briggs says.Is it a red flag if someone floodlights you?Whether its a red flag depends on how often it's done and the context in which it occurs. One instance might just be poor boundaries or nerves. But if someone repeatedly overshares without regard for your emotional readiness or uses vulnerability to guilt, control, or fast-track the relationship, it is a red flag, Briggs explains. Dr. Gaiani agrees, It is a sign of a toxic dynamic wherein one is attempting to manipulate the other with overwhelming emotional resources. It should be addressed in the early stages, and a mental health professional should be reached out to.What should you do if your partner floodlights you?If a new partner is attempting to floodlight you, you need to set boundaries and protect your emotional well-being. This may mean seeking out support from trusted friends or family or going to see a therapist who can help you evaluate the relationship and work through the emotional manipulation youve suffered.Remember that you are not obligated to absorb emotional disclosures youre not ready for, Briggs reminds us. And you should also be on the lookout for if the new person youre dating escapes, tries to guilt-trip you, or withdraws when you set boundaries.But what can you say to someone in the moment if they are floodlighting you? Briggs and Roberts-Meese both have some suggestions.I want to understand and support you, but this feels like a lot to process right now. Can we talk about this more when weve built some more trust?Thats a lot to take in right now. Can we slow things down?Who in your life is supporting you around this?Steps to take if you are guilty of floodlightingIf you have a tendency to floodlight new partners, consider slowing down when dating and try to find support and connections with your close friends before oversharing traumatic experiences on the first date. If you are dating someone new, try sharing things about yourself in layers, starting with things like hobbies and interests before diving into family dynamics and later traumatic experiences only once youve established trust and intimacy. And consider asking if its okay to share something deeply personal with a new partner before blurting it out.If you notice these tendencies in yourself, it's necessary to see the harm it causes and make an effort to change, Dr. Gaiani suggests. Try doing it with the assistance of a therapist to assist you in resolving the issues that cause this need for control or manipulation, such as unresolved trauma or emotional vulnerabilities.So if youre guilty of floodlighting new partners it may be time to do some introspection. You cannot skip the foundation of a house; the structure is likely to collapse under pressure if you do. The same applies to relationships, Roberts-Meese says.Experts citedDr. Hamilton Gaiani, a double-board-certified psychiatrist and recovery advocate and mental health expert at FirePit Health.Laurel Roberts-Meese, the clinical director at Laurel Therapy Collective.Allison Briggs, licensed professional counselor and trauma recovery specialist at Being Real.

After nearly a decade of uplifting transformations and heartwarming journeys, Queer Eye will air its final season on Netflix. The streaming giant announced Wednesday that the beloved reboot its longest-running reality series will conclude after Season 10, which is set in Washington, D.C. The shows finale marks the end of a major chapter in LGBTQ+ representation and reality TV history. First day of the FINAL season of Queer Eye. Its been a long, beautiful journeythank you! Thank you!!!!! co-host Tan France posted on Instagram, reflecting on the shows impact and legacy.A Decade of Transformation and CelebrationSince debuting in 2018, Queer Eye featuring the charismatic Fab Five: Karamo Brown, Tan France, Antoni Porowski, Jonathan Van Ness, and originally Bobby Berk captured the hearts of millions worldwide. With each episode, the group ventured across the United States and occasionally overseas to help individuals rediscover confidence, style, wellness, cuisine, and self-worth.In Season10, the team will set up shop in the nations capital, bringing its signature mix of style makeovers, emotional breakthroughs, and life-affirming advice to D.C.s unique and vibrant communities. The location is especially fitting as Queer Eye has long served as a platform for social progress, equality, and joy.While the show reshaped the lives of its heroes, it also left an indelible mark on queer culture. From heartfelt conversations about identity and acceptance to viral moments that inspired millions, Queer Eye became one of the most significant LGBTQ+ media events of the 21st century.Behind the Fab Five: Changes and ContinuityNot without its seasonal shifts, Queer Eye adapted over time. In Season 9, designer Bobby Berk departed, making way for Jeremiah Brent, who had already guest-starred in several makeover episodes. Brent brought his own energy and perspective, helping to maintain the shows sense of inclusivity and evolution.The Fab Five are:Karamo Brown (culture and emotional wellness guru)Tan France (fashion expert and style strategist)Antoni Porowski (food and wine connoisseur)Jonathan Van Ness (grooming and self-care advocate)Bobby Berk (home design aficionado, Seasons 18) succeeded by Jeremiah Brent (home design expert, Seasons910)This team dynamic proved key to Queer Eyes appeal. Each cast member brought professional expertise, authenticity, and lived experience that resonated with both LGBTQ+ viewers and mainstream audiences. Their diverse backgrounds queer and ally underscored the shows ethos of acceptance and understanding.(L to R) Karamo Brown, Jonathan Van Ness, Tan France, Bobby Berk, Antoni Porowski in Queer Eye. Photo: Ilana Panich-Linsman/NetflixFrom Personal Growth to Culture-ChangerThe series has earned critical acclaim and cultural significance. In 2023, Queer Eye won its sixth consecutive Emmy for Outstanding Structured Reality Program, a run that lasted from 2018 to 2023. The achievement signaled more than just industry recognition; it reflected the growing appetite for queer-affirming programming.Queer Eye. (L to R) Tan France, Jonathan Van Ness, Karamo Brown, Bobby Berk, Antoni Porowski in Queer Eye. Photo: Iiana Panich-Linsman/NetflixA 2012 Hollywood Reporter survey noted that 27% of viewers said shows like Queer Eye and Glee had made them more supportive of marriage equality evidence of the power these programs wield in shaping hearts and minds around LGBTQ+ issues.Season 10: A Farewell to RememberWith filming underway in Washington, D.C., the final season of Queer Eye promises to lean into intersectionality and social impact. The citys historical and political backdrop offers a fertile ground for the shows mission: to mentor individuals, nurture community, and foster social unity through upliftment. Season 10, the final season, quipped Jonathan Van Ness on social media, acknowledging the close of a chapter yet inviting fans to celebrate the journey.Beyond individual makeovers, Queer Eye has always lent its platform to broader dialogues: mental health awareness, trans acceptance, racial equity, and family reconciliation. The upcoming farewell season is expected to continue this tradition while offering the emotionally satisfying send-offs that have earned it such loyalty from viewers.What the Final Season Means for LGBTQ+ MediaAs Queer Eye bows out, its absence will be deeply felt. Network TV and streaming alike may struggle to fill the gap left by a format that married heart-tugging storytelling with high-fashion aesthetics. But the shows lasting legacy may be even more significant.By celebrating queer joy and normalizing vulnerability, Queer Eye helped redefine queer narratives no longer relegated to trauma or exclusion, but celebrated for authenticity, culture, and community.Queer Eye. (L to R) Karamo Brown, Antoni Porowski, Jeremiah Brent, Tan France, and Jonathan Van Ness. Photo: Bronson Farr / NetflixFor many queer viewers, seeing themselves reflected on-screen whether through Karamos emotional openness, Tans sartorial flair, Jons self-love mantra, Antonis heartfelt cooking sessions, Bobbys nurturing design solutions, or Jeremiahs blend of modern aesthetics and queer resilience offered validation and pride.Beyond the Final CurtainEven after the final episode airs, Queer Eyes influence will endure. Its hosts are branching into new ventures:Karamo Brown continues his work as a motivational speaker, author, and advocate for emotional well-being.Tan France has launched a fashion brand and a Netflix competition series, Next in Fashion.Jonathan Van Ness maintains their podcast and champions mental health awareness.Antoni Porowski has hosted cooking shows and authored a cookbook, inspiring home cooks everywhere.Bobby Berk and Jeremiah Brent continue to influence home design with accessible and inclusive aesthetics.Rumors swirl about reunion specials, international spin-offs, or seasonal specials centered on specific themes like trans care or chosen families. While no official announcements have been made, the magnitude of their cultural impact suggests the Queer Eye brand will live on in new forms.(L to R) Karamo Brown, Antoni Porowski, Jeremiah Brent, Tan France, Jonathan Van Ness. Photo: NetflixThe official reason behind Queer Eyes conclusion remains unclear. Netflix has not specified whether the decision was creative, contractual, or strategic. But in the streaming world, where data-driven metrics often determine a shows fate, the warm farewell seems fitting for a series that never lost its authenticity or impact.For now, fans can look forward to Season 10, which will premiere later this year and land squarely in a city synonymous with political change. Its an apt setting for the shows final mission: transforming lives, one person and one city at a time.Source

As corporations retreat from Pride event sponsorships amid the current administrations efforts to dismantle diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, the co-founders ofRuPauls Drag Raceproduction company, World of Wonder, are helping some organizations across the country make up for the budget shortfalls theyve faced this summer.In June, WOW Presents Plus, World of Wonders subscription streaming platform, sponsored local events in Buffalo Grove, Illinois; Portsmouth, New Hampshire; and Augusta, Georgia, along with a Pride Parade Lounge at Los Angeless June 8 celebration. The company will also sponsor Mid-Missouri PrideFest in October, and a June 20 Instagram post promises more sponsorships to be announced. Related European Pride celebrations see funding shortfalls because of the Trump effect Companies are withholding sponsorships in the US and abroad out of fear of retribution from the US president. Were seeing a big walking back of support for Pride from corporations, probably because theyre afraid of the current political climate, WOWs Fenton Bailey told USA Today recently, adding that he and co-founder Randy Barbato realized that while we dont have the reach or deep pockets of those companies, we could still make a difference. Never Miss a Beat Subscribe to our newsletter to stay ahead of the latest LGBTQ+ political news and insights. Subscribe to our Newsletter today View this post on Instagram A post shared by WOW Presents Plus (@wowpresentsplus)To Baileys point, the presidents January executive order aimed at ending DEI efforts within the federal government also put pressure on private sector companies to follow suit. Even before he took office for his second term, major brands like McDonalds, Walmart, Ford, Harley-Davidson, John Deere, and Lowes all announced they would roll back or end their DEI initiatives, likely in response to right-wing pressure.Corporations have also been reassessing their contributions to Pride celebrations. In April, Gravity Research found that 39 percent of companies surveyed said they planned to reduce Pride-related engagement for 2025. Senior corporate leaders cited fear of potential investigations by the current administration over DEI as their top reason for pulling back on Pride marketing. Meanwhile, Pride celebrations across the country, including in major markets like New York and San Francisco, have reported significant budget shortfalls this year.The LGBTQ+ community is under attack, and a lot of corporate America is buckling under pressure, Barbato told USA Today. We felt a responsibility to step in, even in a small way, to support local Pride events. Bailey explained that since Pride events in big cities tend to get disproportionate attention, WOW chose to focus its support on celebrations in small towns. Local communities, thats where people really need to feel supported, he said. And many people at World of Wonder have ties to these towns, so it was personal.In a May 20 Instagram post, Buffalo Grove Pride organizers wrote that they were unspeakably grateful for WOWs $10,000 diamond-level sponsorship of its seventh annual Family Friendly Pride Parade. Notably, the company was the only diamond-level sponsor listed on the organizations website for 2025. View this post on Instagram A post shared by BG Pride (@bg_pride)Barbato added that small-town events are just as important, if not more, than their metropolitan counterparts. These towns are where values are shaped. Love, tolerance, non-judgment those start at home, he explained. Its about connection. These events are incredibly intimate and powerful When one community is under threat, we all are. Pride is celebration, but also a reminder that we must keep showing up. For ourselves, and for each other.Bailey pointed to the stark contrast between powerful American corporations disinvestment in Pride and the hundreds of thousands of people who were estimated to have turned out for Budapest Pride last month, despite Hungarys authoritarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbn threatening severe legal consequences for anyone attending.I wish more companies would show up. Just look at Budapest Pride, Bailey said. That same spirit of resistance is needed here. This is not the time to run and hide.
