Ozempic, a.k.a. semaglutide, is the most well-known medication in a class of drugs called GLP-1 receptor agonists, which mimic the GLP-1 hormone that regulates blood sugar and appetite.

Research shows that in the days following the spring transition, there are measurable increases in sleep disruption, impaired alertness, workplace errors, motor vehicle accidents, and even short-term elevations in cardiovascular events and blood sugar variability.

It can be tough being gay in a straight man's world. When it comes to figuring out our identities, we often have to negotiate our desires with the preconceived expectations around us. This was especially the case for folks who grew up when there was scant representation. Certain attractions may have bubbled, but they remained nameless. Still, that doesn't mean they went unheeded. Gay people have found themselves for centuries.

As a teenager, Davis was always striving to be thinner, obsessed with tracking calories and terrified to date or be intimate with anybody in case they commented on her body. Even going to the beach with friends was fraught. I'd wait for them to go into the ocean first, because I felt really insecure, she says. Some days I'd cancel and say I was sick.

On my first day at Canyon Ranch's $20,000 four-day Longevity8 retreat in November, the schedule sounded dauntingly packed: I received a list of appointments with doctors and wellness specialists across a range of fields, from fitness to flexibility, meditation to mental health. In between electrocardiograms, carotid ultrasounds, and DEXA scans, I would attend spa appointments, fitness classes, and group hikes through the Santa Catalina Mountains;

First of all, let me put your mind at ease. Having this thought does not make you a villain. It makes you a long-term partnered adult with a pulse. Most people don't wake up one morning and think, "Ah yes, swinging - this will clearly solve everything." Curiosity like this usually shows up more quietly. It's often less about wanting other people and more about wanting something back: playfulness, aliveness, the feeling that sex is still a place of discovery.

Times are hard, but don't believe the rumors about the death of the Bay Area art scene. Yes, art institutions and galleries are closing. Yes, the techies have taken over, outpricing artists and polluting culture with their AI inventions. But there's an inherent spirit of rebellion to the region that won't be quashed so easily, and an inspired community that fights for it every day.

FRI/30-SUN/1: PIVOT FESTIVAL The 11th annual installment of this incredible boundary-pushing music festival has enlisted Andy Meyerson of the excellent Living Earth Show duo to curate-and boy is he bringing it. (If you haven't grokked Living Earth's terrific Roar Shack venue, hop to it, btw.) The weekend fills Herbst Theater with hyper-San Franciscan sounds, with performances by vocalist Tanner Porter, San Francisco Ballet dancer- choreographer Myles Thatcher, and Bay Area ensembles Bucket List (featuring composer-creator Mark Applebaum),

With Super Bowl 60 coming up Sunday, hunky football jocks are taking center stage. With players urged to "pound the end zone" and "penetrate the defense," the tradition of homoeroticism runs deep on the gridiron. And we're not even talking about the congratulatory bum slapping, or what these modern day gladiators are wearing under their gear. Previously reserved for sports, jockstraps entered the gay conscious in the mid-20th century. They first appeared in Tom of Finland drawings and adult magazines.

"First, a sweaty workout with free weights, followed by sit-ups. Then: a tight pair of faded blue jeans and nothing else. Shirtless, barefoot, commando. I'm twitching already..." - Roger in Palm Springs Oh, we love a man in uniform! We've long covered the pheromone-induced allure of post-workout hookups, which usually involves steamy locker room scenes. But with his tight, faded blue jeans, it seems like Roger takes his act onto the streets, in the hot desert sun. Help, we're parched!
