more hate from the catholic church
Published by November 12th, 2009 in civil rights, politics, that is so gay, tragic, well? and wtf?!. 4 CommentsTom Ford on gay marriage
Published by November 10th, 2009 in civil rights, hotness, mixed media, politics and that is so gay. 2 CommentsThis morning, I read this interview with Tom Ford, and I really liked some of the things he had to say; especially what he said about the gay marriage issue in this country. Tom Ford is my number one celebrity crush, so of course, any time I have a sliver of a good reason to [...]
Maine votes against gay marriage: some thoughts
Published by November 4th, 2009 in civil rights, is it just me?, politics, that is so gay, tragic, venting, well? and wtf?!. 7 CommentsYesterday, Maine’s vote sent a(nother) clear message to me: gay people do not matter to the majority of Americans. I am sure that many will argue that this is not the position of most Americans, but the message is too clear to ignore. Our civil rights are constantly up for debate, and constantly, we have [...]
a (queer) monday menagerie
Published by October 26th, 2009 in civil rights, hmm interesting, is it just me?, music musings, near and dear, politics, show the love, that is so gay, venting, wtf?! and you tube. 4 Comments- Pride in Atlanta is this weekend, and I am kind of excited about being able to celebrate Pride weekend without the heat of June, and hopefully, without the torrential downpours that usually came along with it.

no 5SF this week, but some great news
Published by October 23rd, 2009 in all about me, civil rights, happenings, listen up!, politics and that is so gay. 0 CommentsAs you may notice, there is no five song Friday occupying its regular slot this week; I have had a really bad week (from being sick to the hot water heater woes to school work overload), so I am taking a break. I need to write up my concert experience from Mat Kearney last Friday [...]
must watch: Modern Family
Published by October 15th, 2009 in mixed media, show the love, television and that is so gay. 3 CommentsInitially, it seems that it always takes me a while to get into anything that gets a lot of hype, and because of the pre-season buzz, Modern Family was no exception. However, thankfully, I saw the light early on in this case, and after last night’s hilarious episode, I can definitely say that the hype [...]
madonna and me (too)
Published by October 7th, 2009 in all about me, cream of the crop, hmm interesting, music musings, near and dear, show the love and that is so gay. 7 CommentsAfter reading Rich’s excellent blog post, Madonna and Me, about his life-long experiences regarding Madonna, I felt compelled to share it (go read it!! It’s excellent!), and say something (well, a lot of somethings) about how it eerily mirrors my own feelings, and the reasons behind those feelings, about her.
I have always had a “thing” [...]
so you’ve known all along?
Published by September 24th, 2009 in all about me, is it just me?, mixed media, near and dear and that is so gay. 4 CommentsIt is no secret that I have been thoroughly enjoying the new show Glee, that it seems everyone is talking about. However, this post really isn’t about Glee. While I find the show funny, sweet, endearing, the times where it has proven to be an intimate portrait of real life are what have really struck [...]
Atlanta Eagle raid reponse: I’m calling bullshit
Published by September 15th, 2009 in civil rights, is it just me?, that is so gay, well? and wtf?!. 7 CommentsThe Chief of the Atlanta police says that the reason the Eagle was raided is because of complaints of (as well as undercover cops witnessing) sex acts and drugs being used. Yet, interestingly enough, no drugs were found when the raid happened. Perhaps most importantly, and why I am calling total and utter bullshit on [...]
