Introducing our Summer 2022 issue.
In December 2020, after disclosing that he is transgender, the Oscar-nominated actor and star of Netflix's The Umbrella Academy (Season Three out June 22) became the most famous trans man on the planet. That's made him the target of indescribable hate but has also brought him unimaginable joy. Here, in his own words, he talks about his childhood, his career, his transition, and his life, though not necessarily in that order. Everything you need for weddings, job interviews—or simply stunting on your underdressed friends. Getting the right gear is half the battle. The United States cannot imagine "a level of gun violence in our communities that is unacceptable" enough to take action. Gadgets, gear, and merch that cannabis connoisseurs and casual smokers alike wouldn't dream of hiding. The best-selling whiskies from Scotland might be blends, but single malts better speak to a distillery's character. Dads bring their sons to Baseball Heaven so they can feel like pros. The facility, situated on an industrial lot off the Long Island Expressway, has recessed dugouts, proper bullpens, and stadium lights. On weekends, the lot fills with so many cars that minivans must illegally park on the roadway verge. Cleats click-clack on pavement, and cooler wheels groan. Fathers jockey for position to record their sons' swings and fixate on pitch velocity, murmuring the incantation "What's he at? What's he at?" Between games, boys wander the park with Gatorade-stained lips and gnash on Big League Chew. Inside the café, televisions simulcast play on all seven fields. The turf is artificial, which means the grass at Baseball Heaven is always green. Every father finds his own way to this Eden, and for Bobby Sanfilippo, it all started at a batting cage on an autumn day in 2008. |
