Wrestler-turned-actor Dave Bautista has people online applauding after delivering a pointed message about LGBTQ+ Pride Month.

The actor, who has appeared in several Marvel movies including Guardians of the Galaxy, Army of the Dead, and Dune, recently posted a photo of himself to Instagram in a rainbow-emblazoned t-shirt that read "Be You" across the chest.

In his caption, Bautista, who is straight, explained the post was a tribute to his mom, a lesbian whom he described in his caption as having an attitude towards being LGBTQ+ that is nothing short of inspirational--and wonderfully profane.

See his post below.

Along with the photo, Bautista wrote:

"I was always proud of who my mom was because she was always proud of who she was."
"In your face, fu*k you if you don’t like it, unapologetically loud and proud."

Amen!

Bautista went on to say that he "paid attention" to his mom's attitude, before closing his tribute with a directive to LGBTQ+ people everywhere.

"BE LOUD, BE PROUD, BE YOU. ❤️🏳️🌈💪🏽 #ProudSonOfALesbian #pride #pridemonth #lgbtq #lgbt"

Bautista is known to be super close with his mom, the kind of son who took some of his big Marvel movie earnings and bought his mom a house in her favorite part of San Francisco.

Aww.

And he has frequently celebrated Pride and taken up the cause of LGBTQ+ rights as a way of honoring his mother, too.

All the way back in 2014, he posed for photographer Adam Bouska's NOH8 Campaign, a non-profit founded in the wake of California's 2008 Proposition 8 that overturned same-sex marriage in the state until a 2013 Supreme Court decision invalidated it.

And in 2019, he pointedly put a Catholic bishop in place after the bishop said Catholics should not celebrate Pride because it damages children.

Bautista's latest show of support for the LGBTQ+ community had people on Instagram cheering, too.

Video Of Trump Ribbon Cutting Ceremony Is All Kinds Of Awkward After Media Ban Backfires Spectacularly

President Donald Trump's decision to ban CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the White House prompted a network boycott in solidarity and a ribbon cutting ceremony on the White House's South Lawn came with completely indecipherable audio because the press pool has decided to stop filming daily events.

Footage from a Monday ribbon cutting ceremony revealed that the sounds of the Marine One chopper just yards away drowned out Trump's remarks. The far-right network Newsmax was on the scene, and even they had to admit that Trump's attack against the free press seemed to be “backfiring just a little bit.”

House Republicans Get Hit With Epic Reminder After Tweet Warning About Communists Building Walls

After the official House Republicans X account tweeted a warning that "every communist country eventually builds a wall," critics were quick to point out the party's general hypocrisy.

President Donald Trump has long advocated for the United States to construct a border wall, making it a cornerstone of his immigration policy back in 2016. Since then, Republicans have continued to defend the wall as necessary for reasons of national security.

Mike Pence Reveals Trump's Telling Response After Pence Offered His Prayers Following Jan. 6 Rift

Vice President Mike Pence told the audience during his appearance at the Economic Club of Washington, D.C. that President Donald Trump rejected his offer of "praying" for him following their public rift in the aftermath of the January 6 insurrection.

Pence has long appeared to play both sides, on one hand condemning Trump for pushing the "Big Lie" that the 2020 election was fraudulent, while on the other accusing Democrats of not advocating for election integrity. But he has been out of Trump's good graces for years now since his decision to certify Joe Biden's victory in the 2020 presidential election.

Woodley attended Monday’s 78th Primetime Emmy Awards after already having a pretty good reason to celebrate. The 34-year-old won her first Emmy for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series for playing Annie Clay in season 2 of Hulu’s Paradise at the Creative Arts Emmys on September 6.
