Jordan Firstman Still Wants Gay People to Like Him

Charlie, a character comedian Firstman often plays, is energetic, outspoken, and playfully wild. This persona first gained popularity online when he pretended to be the publicist for banana bread during the pandemic. He’s since appeared as a heightened, chaotic version of himself in the film Rotting in the Sun and as a quirky love interest on the TV show English Teacher. Firstman describes Charlie as a mix of Samantha Jones from Sex and the City – confident and direct – and Ari Gold from Entourage – someone who’s effective and gets things done. What makes Charlie stand out is his genuineness; he isn’t trying to be conventionally attractive or appeal to those unfamiliar with gay culture. He’s as fashionable, clever, and sometimes frustrating as the real people you’d find at a place like Akbar.

How ‘Spartacus: House of Ashur’ Differs From the 2010 Series – Is It Actually “Woke”?

Critics are praising the new series, House of Ashur. It initially received a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes, and currently holds a very strong 91%. This is particularly noteworthy because the previous Spartacus series never achieved a rating above 80%. While the original show and its spin-off were often criticized for being overly dramatic and focusing too much on sex and violence, overshadowing the plot, House of Ashur is now facing accusations of being overly focused on current social issues. So, what’s behind this mixed reaction?

‘Will You Come and Get Me?’

When Omar called back, 5-year-old Hind answered, her voice small but clear. She told them everyone else was gone and desperately asked Rana, one of the dispatchers, to come get her. Rana and her colleagues kept talking to Hind while they waited for the Israeli military to approve sending an ambulance. The paramedics were only eight minutes away, but the approval process took hours – a delay that made no sense to Hind. They had to follow a route specifically approved by the Israeli Ministry of Defense. Finally, after sunset, they received permission. But as the ambulance neared the car where Hind was waiting, it was hit by a tank. Twelve days later, Hind, her family, and the paramedics, Youssef Zaïno and Ahmed al-Madhoun, were found dead. Investigations by the Washington Post and other groups suggest they were killed in an attack by Israeli forces, though Israel had previously stated its troops weren’t in the area.
