Homophobes are up in arms over Sunday's episode of The Last of Us that featured actors Nick Offerman and Murray Bartlett as gay couple Bill and Frank. They are flocking to review sites by the masses to express their disgust.

While most viewers of the series say the episode was one of the most emotional and heartbreaking in the series so far, homophobes are unable to see past Bill and Frank's sexuality.

The episode has a 7.9/10 star rating on IMDB, which is a stark contrast to the ratings of other episodes which hover between 9.2 and 9.3. An astounding 28.6% (likely 100% homophobes) gave the episode just one star.

Aside from IMDB, they are taking their bigotry and hate to Instagram, as well, specifically to the series' posts about the latest episode.

That one really got us.

Sorry you can't watch a rated TV-MA show with profanity, brutal killings—including of children—and cannibalism with your daughter because of a love story between consenting adults.

Fortunately, plenty of unprejudiced fans of the show had its back.

They also took to social media to not only counter the hate but also to call out the homophobes for their bigoted reviews.





The Last of Us games the HBO series is based on introduced queer characters years ago.




The Last of Us airs Sunday on HBO.

The first three episodes are available to stream now.

Dem Rep. Expertly Pinpoints Why Republicans Are Dismantling DEI Programs In Mic Drop Rant

Speaking during a House Oversight Committee hearing, Pennsylvania Democratic Representative Summer Lee expertly pinpointed why diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs are being targeted by Republicans nationwide, noting that "remedying past discrimination is not, in turn, a discrimination."

People Describe The Absolute Best Meal They Ever Ate

I've traveled quite a bit—for work and pleasure—and had some memorable meals along the way.

There was the borscht, pierogies, and sausage at Polish restaurant Mazurka (R.I.P.) on Rue Prince-Arthur in Montreal, Canada. The poutine I sampled across Quebec and the Maritimes. All the fresh breads, doner kebabs, schnitzel, and baked French onion soups I ate while TDY in Germany. The yakisoba, sushi, and seafood curry I had while working for the DoD in Japan.

Elon Musk Mocked For Hilariously Wrong Prediction About Matt Gaetz—And Yeah, That Did Not Age Well

After former Florida congressman Matt Gaetz dropped out of contention for President-elect Donald Trump's Attorney General post, a hilariously over the top post from billionaire Elon Musk—who is tapped to lead Trump's "Department" of Government Efficiency—resurfaced that showcases how wrong Musk was about Gaetz's future within the second Trump administration.

Gaetz was previously the subject of a Justice Department investigation into alleged sex trafficking involving a 17-year-old girl and has faced scrutiny from the House Ethics Committee over accusations of sexual misconduct. However, that inquiry effectively concluded last week when Gaetz announced his resignation from Congress.
