Sinopse

After Marshall gets a medical residency across the state and hours away from his boyfriend Jack, the two decide on a long-distance relationship. This arrangement works, more or less. Marshall isn't the best with texting and his time is often scattered, but so is Jack's when he's working double-shifts at Target. When they connect over Skype and text messages, it's good.
And when they don't, Jack finds other ways to keep their relationship interesting and the excitement present. But when Black Friday forces both of them to work hectic schedules and deal with impatient crowds, Jack soon wonders if spending Thanksgiving apart was really a good idea. 
During the massive Black Friday event, Jack's coworkers amuse him with customer service horror stories, take selfies which go viral online, and rewrite traditional Christmas songs. It's fun, but even their friendships seem strained under the holiday season. As Marshall's text messages become less and less frequent, Jack wonders if the two of them will be able to wait out the three weeks and six days until they can see one another over Christmas break. 
When everyone tells Jack patience is a virtue, he starts to realize the faulty argument at its core. Being quiet has never gotten him anything in his life. But maybe, if he can learn from these bossy customers just how to voice his own desires -- he could have Marshall home and all to himself.

    For most people, December is all about Christmas, but not for Alvin.

Little does he know, though, that Milo has something extra special planned.
    It's been a bumpy year and, while the holidays are just around the corner, Milo has been working on his gift for Alvin for months now. He can't wait to give Alvin the token of his love.

    As a Hungarian immigrant working as a studio hack writing monster movies in 1950s Hollywood, George Curtis must navigate the McCarthy-era studio system filled with possible communists and spies, the life of closeted men along Sunset Boulevard, and the inability of the era to cleave love from persecution and guilt. But when Madeline, a famous actress, offers George a writing residency at her estate in Malibu to work on the political writing he cares most deeply about, his world is blown open. Soon Madeline is carrying George like an ornament into a class of postwar LA society ordinarily hidden from men like him. 
     
     
     
    What this lifestyle hides behind, aside from the monsters on the screen, are the monsters dwelling closer to home: this bacchanalia covers a gnawing hole shelled wide by the horror of the war they thought they'd left behind and the glimpse of an atomic future. It's here that George understands he can never escape his past as György, the queer Jew who fled Budapest before the war and landed in New York a decade prior. 
     
     
     
    Spanning from Los Angeles to the hidden corners of working-class New York to a virtuosic climax in the Las Vegas desert, The Future Was Color is an immaculately written exploration of postwar American decadence, reinventing the self through art, and the psychosis that lingers in a world that's seen the bomb.

    Hudson has been in a bit of a dry spell lately, spending more time with video games and fantasy novels than searching for love. Unfortunately, when his best friends invite him out to the club, he runs into his rival Tyne, who acts like the snooty king of the gayborhood and always ignores Hudson when their paths cross.
    Hudson insists he isn't jealous, just annoyed by Tyne's arrogance, though his friends might dispute that claim. So when the night goes south, Hudson decides to get out of the city. His friends rent a cabin in the woods to reconnect with nature. 
    The weekend gets off to a perfect start. A luxurious cabin with a steamy hot tub could not be further from roughing it. Then Tyne shows up unexpectedly and, to Hudson's surprise, Tyne's attention stirs something up in him. Is Tyne actually boyfriend material? 
    When Hudson receives cryptic messages from someone named GloryHole85, who invites him to a glowing glory hole that will transport him to his deepest fantasies. Will Hudson slip into the port-hole, or swallow his pride and find a way to test the waters with Tyne?
