The Harsh Reality of Being a Queer Creator

Growing up, I always knew I wanted to have some kind of platform, and I was determined from a young age to make it happen. My family didn’t really support my dream of having an online presence, especially after I came out. They worried about how I would be criticized. As a black queer influencer, I’ve experienced my fair share of hate. But nothing could prepare me for how much more intense it would get after announcing I was in a same-sex relationship online.

From the Sticks to the Stacks

Karlyle Tomms is a pen name, a derivative of my birth name. I chose it because my birth name is more common than ticks on a hound’s back. That metaphor fits because I grew up in a four-room house in the sticks of Arkansas. My mother was from the sticks, and my father was from Las Angeles. So, I’m a hillbilly half-breed. I grew up in a fundamentalist church, and I was fourteen years old when Stonewall occurred.

The Bent Inn & Pub

The Bent Inn & Pub is the brainchild of owners Greg Kafka and Mark Hunter. A gay resort property is not new to these gentlemen; they are seasoned veterans who previously owned properties in Palm Springs. In 2023, they both hit the ground running, participating in the Las Vegas PRIDE Parade and Festival, with soft opening events that included a New Year’s Eve Poolside Party.

Embracing Self-Love: Creative Ways to Celebrate Yourself

Valentine’s Day often conjures images of romantic dinners, chocolates, and flowers exchanged between couples. However, being single on this day doesn’t mean you have to miss out on the love and joy associated with it. In fact, Valentine’s Day can be an excellent opportunity to celebrate self-love, independence, and the relationships that truly matter.
