Brokeback Mountain was a phenomenon in 2005; it helped steer the national discourse on gay marriage, it eased fear in Hollywood that a same-sex romance couldn’t be a mainstream hit, and “I wish I knew how to quit you” was a meme before memes were even a thing.
And hey, if the film is also to thank for these come-hither photos from Nyle Dimarco, then we’ll just add it to the list of net positive outcomes.
Keeping things simple, DiMarco captioned this shot “Brokeback Mountain vibes”–vibes, it goes without saying, that we’re feeling:

Reaction can best be summed up by this response:
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.

A few days earlier, Nyle posted this shot from what appears to be the same truck. It’s giving us more of a Good Will Hunting vibe, minus the Breckenridge part:

Picasso had his “Blue Period”; Nyle has just begun exploring his “Blue Truck Period.”

Still don’t know who Nyle DiMarco is (and still don’t care).
Next!

Seriously? Your truly out- of-touch. What a clueless Dick.
WillParkinson
Whew. Glad I’m not the only one. I thought I’d have to turn in my gay card.

Stanpaske, we are not all 13-y-o girl fans of every irrelevant pretty boy. No idea

You a special kind of ahole. Why did you bother reading about someone “you don’t know” AND then decide to comment on the story? Because you’re a liar, that’s why.
BGinBigD
Liar mouth!
whatsaywhat
A lot of predictable name-calling & vitriol from bitter hysterical queens with their panties in a bunch.
OK. Googled him. A deaf model, turned reality TV star, turned instagram celebrity.
Still don’t care.
Lacuevaman
Damn, some of these folks on here are too much. I had to google him too.
Brian
Truly out of touch for not knowing Nyle DiMarco? Now that is hilarious.
SiamSam
That celebrity worship has become almost mandatory in today’s world shows how much society and culture have degenerated. Just mindless, meaningless minutiae.

True. It may not be ‘out of touch’ not to know a celebrity, but it gets annoying when people post dumb shit like “who?” or “don’t know who he is” on an article about a celebrity when it only takes a quick internet search to learn who that person is. They’re trying to be flippant but it just comes off as annoying. Well, to me at least.

He is a gorgeous man.

He could do ‘Brokeback’ by himself, he’s so in love with himself.
jpcolter
You’re an idiot.
BGinBigD
You a foo!!!
Josh447
He certainly has *hot* down.
Tomas
He was in America’s Next top model and Dancing with the Stars. Are there any out there who think it would be easy to be a deaf dancer? He has been a strong advocate for the deaf community and very supportive of the LGBTQ community. Much more than a pretty face and body. This pretty boy seems to have some substance and values.

Gretchen , stop trying to make fetch happen.
So done with seeing him.
