Get it? Coming out? Ugh.

This time, stick to silence.

I live at the corner of Harvey Milk Street and Rainbow Crossing.

The queers are taking over: in sports, on courts, and even in Texas.

To L-Fest and back, but definitely not to Albania.

Sports in Saudi Arabia and cats in your own home.

Gay marriage is good for kids, Beyonce is still waiting for you to bow down, and Ronald Reagan’s daughter wrote a lesbian love story.

“When you don’t dress like everybody else, you don’t have to think like everybody else.”
