Happy Sunday Funday, muppets! Here’s some good gay news to tide you over ’til we meet again.

55 percent of Americans support same-sex marriage and want the Supreme Court to make the right choice on the matter this summer.

It’s worth noting right that the Court will do whatever it damn well wants regardless of the hopes and dreams of the country it serves, because the world is cruel and unfair. But wheeee people like us! They really like us!

The Women of the World Cup Look Pretty Damn Pleased With Themselves

The athletes playing in this year’s FIFA Women’s World Cup have had a lot of big and small victories to celebrate on the field. And they were well aware of this when they happened. Here’s a round-up of the competitors pretty much jumping for joy.

I just thought you’d wanna see this.

Small Victories, Big World

+ Mexico’s Supreme Court has ruled that same-sex marriage bans are unconstitutional.

+ The human rights activists trying to stop the Trans-Pacific Partnership have finally tasted the sweet nectar of victory, but the fight’s far from over.

  1. THAT PITBULL HAS A DUCKLING ON ITS HEAD.

    WHY AM I YELLING?!

    I CAN’T STOP. SO EXCITE.

  2. NO, but then next year ACTUALLY have a baby doe chillin’ to promote Klub Deer. Does anyone have a pet deer? WHO CAN SMUGGLE ONE ON A SHUTTLE.

    • wait what? how small is this deer actually? can we quantify it using the metric system or relative to another standardized-ish measurement such as 0.2 cats in length?

      • It’s hella small
        “Pudús range in size from 32 to 44 centimeters (13 to 17 in) tall, and up to 85 centimeters (33 in) long”

        So… I’m assuming that baby deer is maybe the size of a weaned kitten? (0.3 of a cat?)

    • alternatively, is that a giant flower pot, or more like the size you put a starter basil plant in that you picked up at Trader Joe’s. Is the tiny deer larger than a gerbil? omg.

      • i think that is a huge flowerpot, but i do think this deer is maybe the size of a tiny puppy, that’s how i’m envisioning it, i am not a scientist just in the interest of full disclosure here, just someone who imagines a life where she’s surrounded by tiny, fuzzy deer.

    • Oh my God!!! I was going to comment on the Supreme Court’s ruling in Mexico. BUT THIS.

  3. This post makes me happy on so many levels… I can’t even handle all the cute feelings rn….

  4. Woah!! After hopping over to that FIFA SheWired link I had to stop and say much I LOVE and appreciate the limited ads at Autostraddle!
