tumblr,
how am I supposed to neurotically re-read the last thing I said to people if you don’t let me view my sent messages?
half my recent followers are gay porn blogs.
srsly, why do we pretend the internet exists for anything else?
PSA:
competition is dumb.
bisexual guys: preferentially date gay men. you are competing with drastically more people when dating straight women than when you are dating gay men. logically, you are much more likely to land a fish that is smarter, sexier, and more accomplished than you by fishing in the gay dating pool than you are in the straight one, where overfishing has forced ladyfish to evolve...

the Swiss pay ESL teachers bank.
though one person on an ESL forum complained “no, I don’t save $50,000 USD per year working in Geneva like you do, I only save about $8,000 USD per year after all my expenses.”
oh darn. what sacrifices I shall make for my career.
edit: also, if you raise a child in Switzerland as a native English speaker, that child could realistically grow...

Damn.

i have seen the movie and it is a masterpiece :)
I wholeheartedly agree. it’s pretty much my favorite. I don’t think anyone has actually disliked the movie enough to stop watching it, circumstances just invariably intervene to prevent people from finishing it with me. only one person has ever...
I just saw a gay porn ad for “the hottest white celebs nude”. I’m not sure if this is more offensive than just saying “the hottest celebs nude” and then only showing white people (as they usually do) or if it is actually an improvement. there are, of course, “the hottest black celebs” sites (which I’ve actually seen advertized more frequently) but...
Bill O'Reilly stands up for Ellen →
gaywrites:
The rumors are true: Bill O’Reilly defended Ellen DeGeneres against the conservative group boycotting JC Penney for making her their spokesperson. From SheWired:
Speaking to Fox News commentator Sandy Rios O’Reilly said on his show that he didn’t think boycotting a business over its hiring of a gay spokesperson was in “the spirit of America.”
“What is the difference between a...

About two years ago, Barbara and I were privileged to be two of the original signers of the Manhattan Declaration, along with other Christian leaders, such as Chuck Colson, Dr. James Dobson and Kay Arthur. This important document outlines God’s plan for three matters of eternal significance: the sanctity of life, the dignity of marriage as the union of one man and one woman, and religious ...

“It’s amazing what the Israelis thought they could get away with,” the intelligence officer said. “Their recruitment activities were nearly in the open. They apparently didn’t give a damn what we thought.”
There is no denying that there is a covert, bloody, and ongoing campaign aimed at stopping Iran’s nuclear program, though no evidence has emerged connecting recent acts of...

i bet you that if you called any of these kids a racist they’d be SOOOO offended. i can’t even find the words right now man.
…am I the only person who doesn’t think these people are being that racist? There are plenty of stereotypes for white people too. really. and these people aren’t...

Prop 8: too soon to celebrate too much →
gaywrites:
Yesterday was a huge day for gay rights advocates, as the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals voted that California’s Prop 8 is unconstitutional. But this doesn’t mean the war is over.
For one thing, the case will almost certainly be appealed, but it’s not certain whether the Supreme Court will grant review. Even if it does, the vote will very likely be divided and could come down...
anybody need mucus?
this is not a particularly insightful post, but damn. you have no idea how infuriating it is as a queer person to be told you are being intolerant, that you just need to give straight cisgendered christians another chance, that you’re not being patient enough or rational enough. “hey, come have a drink with me and you’ll realize we can be pretty cool people!”
