The upcoming film is the brainchild of Billy Eichner, the comedic mind behind “Billy on the Street” and “Difficult People.” Eichner both stars in and co-wrote the Judd Apatow-produced movie. Eichner plays his typical self-deprecating, cynical protagonist, a podcast host named Bobby who has pretty much given up on finding anyone tolerable to date. “I wanted it to be personal, and it’s all about being vulnerable and telling an honest story.”Both Eichner and Macfarlane said they hope straight people will watch and enjoy their gay rom-com — just like gay people have long watched and enjoyed straight love stories. “As a gay man, I’ve watched those movies, and I cried and I laughed, and I took something away from it,” Macfarlane said of straight rom-coms. “So I think maybe asking some of our straight friends to watch a gay couple fall in love and cry and laugh and take something from it, too.

Mr. Stein’s daughter-in-law recently had a child, and Mr. Stein was delighted to be a grandfather for the first time. Ms. Fienberg has two sons, one living in Washington and one in Paris, and six grandchildren. As he aged, Mr. Wax had become hard of hearing, and in recent years, he did not speak much.

They’re the work of bots and trolls, and one of the most skilled countries at deploying them is Russia. During the 2016 presidential election, suspected Russian operators created bots on Twitter to promote hashtags like #WarAgainstDemocrats. Facebook is one common platform for Russian trolls and bots, which, in 2016, used fake accounts to influence U.S. elections. Facebook believes that ads on divisive issues created by Russian trolls were shown to Americans over four million times before the elections. Federal investigators and experts believed Russian trolls created Facebook groups like Blacktivist, which reposted videos of police beatings, or another, Secured Borders, which organized anti-immigrant rallies in real life.
