Have you ever thought, what are the top ten kinds of cookies that come in boxes all over the country do I like to eat the most? Us too!

Swimsuit makers don’t care about gay people. Luckily, we do! And so do a lot of other people, actually — guest bloggers on this swimsuit spectacular include Queer Fat Femme, Fit For a Femme and Brandy Howard from “In Your Box Office”.

Lady Gaga talked to Larry King and it was kinda awkward, kinda fun. Plus, Racialicious takes on SATC2, Marie Claire France has women with real curves, Charlotte Church lost her husband over a gay smooch, and Tila Tequila is even worse at life than usual.

Here are Team Autostraddle’s recommendations for books to get you through the rest of summer — without rotting your brain.

As our favorite tropical mindf*ck draws to an end, I take a look back at the (spoiler-strewn) highlights from six seasons of Lost’s emotionally resonant acid-tripping.

Autostraddle has a serious soft spot for documentaries, and we want to give you the same. Here’s the official Autostraddle list of the documentary films everyone should see before they die.

Skins USA, based on Cycle 1 of the British series, has been picked up by MTV and is shooting in Baltimore. Early reports suggested that the gay character “Maxxie” would become “Teo” in the US version, but we’ve got news that Teo is out the window — replaced by a lesbian cheerleader named “Tea.” HOW HOT IS THAT GONNA BE. Also: Skins movie news, Adam Lambert’s tour, Reality Bites Rocks, remembering Rue & moar.

Pay what you can for a set of sweet indie games! Google changed ever-so slightly and now we’re all weeping and won’t leave our basements! And Stephen Hawking’s DIY time travel how-to.

We talk to Margaret Cho about tattoos, her romantic relationships with gay men, celebrities who come out later in their careers, her pick for “the next Gaga,” Adam Lambert, Ani DiFranco, Sex & the City and more.

Basically everyone we ever talk about is in this post. Lindsay Lohan’s new role & good behavior, Santana on the future of Brittana, Gaga does Alejandro on American Idol, Kristen Stewart defends her reputation for not giving a shit, Queen Latifah is writing a girl power scripted show for VH1, James Franco skirts the gay issue, new trailer for Machete starring Lindsay Lohan & Michelle Rodriguez, Ellen apologizes for offending the iPhone, and new PSA for Prop 8 Films.

It’s hard out there for a sexually active lesbo — how do you get the safe sex info you need when you’re afraid of the gyno and lesbians are ignored in sex ed? WELL WE’VE GOT A DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE. Also; a cartoonist. Really you have to see the cartoons.

As Crystal prepares for the long haul flight from Australia to Rodeo Disco, some of Autostraddle’s frequent flyers recommend some of the more constructive ways that one can spend their time on a 14-hour flight. Reader? Alcoholic? Nervous flyer? We’ve got advice: how to befriend a flight attendant, prepare delicious in-flight snacks, sleep in comfort and what musicians offer suitable in-flight listening.

Lady Gaga and a special lady are on a boat, making out! We have mixed feelings which we share. Another tabloid says even more offensive things about Shiloh’s kickass tomboy wardrobe! Behind the scenes with Lindsay Lohan and Indrani, Grey’s Anatomy ends with a lesbian makeout bang, Law & Order marathon, Ask Ro & Osbornes lead LA Pride.

Autostraddle’s LOST Liveblog! Shit’s gonna go DOWN, so get your Dharma-issued beer at the ready. Because we have a drinking game for ya, and well, cause it’s gonna be intense! And you might want to put towels under your doors like you did when you got high in college, because you know the smoke monster’s gonna be making a cameo. Join us! Be warned, this is basically one huge spoiler.

It’s been a week since we first weighed in on “Who’s coming out May 5th in People Magazine?” and now basically the entire internet has an opinion on Who Will Be America’s Next Top Gay or Lesbian Superstar. If you wanna win the coming out office pool, put your money where ours is — on a country music singer hitting the road with tears, lies and alibis.

Chely Wright was interviewed last week on Ellen, gets teary, talks about Ellen’s Mom, and we take a look at why Ellen’s show has been so important for out celebs, and why Ellen, like Oprah, succeeds because of her “outsider” status, not in spite of it. Everyone is having a fabulous time this Sunday Funday! Librarians are covering Lady Gaga songs while she’s hanging around British pubs, Neil Patrick Harris is surprising his boyfriend with awesome parties, a brief gay pride parade happens successfully in Moscow, the “first modern lesbian” will get her time in the spotlight, and Gawker would like to talk to you about prescription medication.

New information in the Cheyenne Williams case (maybe), and shocking violence in Edmonton. Gay and bisexual politicians abound, and the petition on Ref. 71 is finally going to court. Also, a defense of the Boy Scouts, and an investigation of the gay dollar.

Melissa Etheridge and Tammy Lynn Michaels announce their separation after 2 children and nearly 9 years together. The lesbian universe weeps another loss.

It’s Reading Rainbow time at Autostraddle! We talk about which of the Lambda Literary Awards nominees we’re most excited about reading. Spoiler alert: a lot of awesome out lesbians and bisexuals wrote fantastic looking books in 2009. Just FYI.

Today Obama did another thing for gay people, and we can hear the icicles of our soul slowly melting. Which got me thinking about relationships — are we in an emotionally manipulative short-term on-and-off relationship with Obama, or is he in fact being a better man?
