Some news items I thought worth your time: • Pink News: Robbie Manson, a New Zealand rower, has opened up about his lucrative side hustle on subscription website OnlyFans, including sharing “tasteful nudes”, which helps to support his athletic journey. • Queerty: French swimmer Florent Manaudou emerges as the gays’ new favorite Olympic beefcake – and for good reason.

• Pink News: Singer Sam Smith reflects on 10 years since their debut album In the Lonely Hour ahead of BBC Proms performance. • BBC: Olympic boxer Imane Khelif of Algeria is under attack on social media for being labeled “a man beating up a woman” during their fight with Italy’s Angela Carini, who quit the bout in 45 seconds. Hit the link for the details but – for the record – Khelif is not transgender. She was born female, has lived her life as female, and is identified by the IOC as female.
I want to apologise to Khelif – Italian boxer Carini https://t.co/WIEwFwxlbC

• The Guardian: Kamala Harris’s campaign brought in a staggering $310 million in July, more than double the $137 million that Donald Trump’s campaign raised last month, according to a new report. • Axios: Moments before Donald Trump’s disastrous Q&A at the National Association of Black Journalists convention this week, the organizers were told Trump did not want to be fact-checked live and was refusing to go on stage.
SCOOP: Trump didn’t want to be fact-checked live at NABJ and was refusing to go on stage — a stalemate so prolonged that NABJ president Ken Lemon was prepping a statement to explain why Trump wouldn’t show.
As Lemon was prepping it, Trump walked on stage. https://t.co/lLiiMgnQzN — Axios (@axios) August 2, 2024
