Make it stand out

We are interrupting the regular biweekly Non Threatening Boys* posting schedule because there has been an emergency.

Every so often a Non Threatening Boy* does something so culture-shifting that, as dedicated chroniclers of such events, we at Non Threatening Boys* by Polyester are forced to act. And so we must convene to discuss the topless elephant in the room: the Brian Jordan Alvarez Gilmore Girls TikToks.

First, for context: Brian Jordan Alvarez is an actor whose TV series English Teacher – a comedy about a gay teacher at a school in Austin, Texas – recently reached streaming services. Alvarez is the creator and star of the show and also wrote and directed several episodes. He has appeared in other programmes like Jane the Virgin and the Will and Grace reboot, but also has a big side hustle in going mad viral on TikTok.
