Ellen. Love her or hate her, here’s a great example of why it’s so important for the queer community to have our own voices represented in popular media. From talk shows to news broadcasts, movie studios to television characters, authentic voices make a difference.

Some days… Some day, I just don’t know. Some days, I think I’m missing some genetic element that other people have. Some days, I shake my head and think that maybe I’m wrong–that maybe the world is an evil, dangerous, cut-throat, every-man-for-himself kind of world.
Although I don’t talk about it often, I was just as horrified, [...]
I had a fiery and angry political post all ready to go, but got distracted and accidentally deleted it. So instead, watch the trailer for Starship Troopers 3: Maurader
Kill ‘em all!
Also, I saw a really awesome new service called Cover It Live being used to liveblog tonight’s debate over on the Bilerico Project. Part chat-room, [...]
Today I took the afternoon off to attend the LSAC Law School Forum. First off, in the 20 months I’ve lived here, I’ve never bothered to check out Grace Cathedral. The forum was held at the Masonic Temple right across from Grace, so I got to spend a few minutes admiring the church before the [...]
So I’ve been catching up on my blogroll. Apparently, while I was busy mingling with Storm Troopers and anime characters and/or watching bad teenage comedies from my bed, Ralph Nader announced that he enjoys raping puppies. Or something.
Look, I voted for Nader in 2000. Yup, I’m that guy. And you know what, I don’t regret [...]
Well, I woke up this morning stiff and sore. Instead of heading to the final day of WonderCon, I just stayed in bed and watched movies. Not interested in watching the Oscars this year, either, but I might keep it on while I watch more DVDs.
Today was made of awesome, wrapped in an awesome shell, and topped off with awesome sauce.
Okay, so I had a really good time. I spent most of the day in the big hall watching the parade of stars, including The X Files panel with David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, Chris Carter and Frank Spotnitz (although there [...]
My first day at WonderCon was a blast. Since things didn’t get rolling until after noon, I slept in a bit this morning and still arrived too early. It gave me a chance to really look closely at the panels and decide which ones I wanted to attend. Lotsa photos and details after the jump…
Tonight involved two after-work events. First, today was the next-to-last official day for our colleague Cady, so we gathered at Ginger’s (formerly Ginger Trois, now under new management) to have drinks and wish her well. The thing about Ginger Trois… they poured heavy. The new ownership isn’t quite so bad, but it’s still a generous [...]
Lick Your Gender has a video up with footage from Tuesday night’s vigil.
Check out the handsome guy who says “um” too much at the 5:00 mark.
