Target recently donated $150,000 to a group that supports anti-gay Republican Tom Emmer. Vote with your dollars, sign change.org’s petition, or both!

For example, I just wrote half of this excerpt and then had no idea what it was about. And then it disappeared. Anyway, the Elena Kagan nomination hearings are mostly boring, though still important. She talks about DADT, legal progressivism, and cameras in the court room.

Kelly Clarkson drops out of troubled Lilith Fair, Glee gets a ton of Emmy nominations including Jane Lynch, Melissa Etheridge and Tammy Lynn Michaels are in dyke drama hell, Johnny Weir says he’ll come out in his book, and the complete guide to Lilo’s incarceration.

A federal judge ruled DOMA was unconstitutional based on a states rights argument — irony! — but Obama will probs defend the law on appeal. Meh.

What do you want from me. The Real L Word. 108. It happened. Deal with it OMGFASHIONWEEEK FASHIONWEEK.

It’s a new dawn & a new day for feminism on the internet, and a lot of ladies have said a lot of things about it and even if nobody won The Daily Show/Olivia Munn/#yallarejustjealous cyber-wars, some of those things are really important things! Also, Jezebel is taking over the internet if that’s ok with you.

What happens if Elena Kagan is confirmed and joins the Supreme Court? Is she a friend or a foe in disguise as a friend with a lesbian haircut? Our Legal Eagle Jessica attempts to decipher Kagan’s mysterious record to tell you what her confirmation could mean for gay rights and other key issues.

GO Magazine recently debuted their 2010 list of 100 Women We Love. Autostraddle loves this list a lot, too, because not only does it feature tons of awesome women, but a lot of them work for us!

We recap last night’s press conference on the Prop 8 Trial’s closing arguments and affirm our personal feeling that we’ve got this sh*t in the bag, amirite? Also; Stonewall Uprising, Boy Scouts still hate gays, Rachel Maddow on the oil spill and lesbians raise better kids.

Jessica our Real-Live Lesbian Lawyer/Legal Eagle, is back with more facts about things we don’t understand! If marriage equality isn’t coming to our states any time soon, what can we do NOW to protect the rights of same-sex couples in the meantime? Project 515 has answers, and its a blueprint you could bring to your own community much sooner than you think.

I’m still reeling, drunk on the freedom of Google’s Android OS. If you’re a gamer and you’ve got an Android device (or you’re considering one!), take heed of these 8 reasons to ditch the iPhone. Snesoid and Nesoid on the Android Market open up a whole world of retro-gaming, a world which I thoroughly explored this weekend for, er, research purposes. And because the Geekender is ostensibly for things I do on the weekend.

Molly Landreth and Amelia Tovey have set out into the gay wide open to document the faces, stories and sounds of this crazy queer country in their amazing photo/bio project, Embodiment: A Portrait of Queer Life in America. They sat down with Autostraddle to talk about the incredible things they’ve been doing, where they’re heading next, and why this work is so important.

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.

Today, there’s more television news than we can shake a stick at: Glee, Modern Family, Weeds, Ru Paul, Jennifer Beals’ new show… Plus, French Elle’s plus size covergirl spreads a message of acceptance, and the Wachowskis have a script about a gay relationship in the Iraq War.

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.

It’s finally happening: Ellen Page is going to play a real live lesbian on the big screen. We take a deeper look at the story behind her lesbian debut in Freeheld and analyze her former roles where she wasn’t gay, but still warmed our gay hearts.

GLAAD asks Newsweek for apology over Seetodeh’s gays-can’t-play-straight piece! Why do we still care? Because, believe it or not, this isn’t even the worst thing he’s written about gay people for Newsweek, just look at the victim-blaming hate-crime cover story! Anti-DADT empirical research is on YouTube and they’re dancing, Happiness without perfection, what your server is thinking about your date, and a Catholic university isn’t hiring a lesbian.

GLEE Creator Ryan Murphy backs up Kristin Chenoweth and calls for a boycott of Newsweek until Setoodeh apologizes — and invites him to come on set. Also, Ramin Setoodeh has responded to the “internet backlash” and Kristin Chenoweth’s response to his homophobic article “Straight Jacket” in Newsweek and unsurprisingly, all he really does is dig himself even deeper. We break it all down for you. Lots of feelings on this one.

Writer/actress/director Guinevere Turner tells all about her L Word legacy, her own “Chart,” why she stopped watching, seeing “Go Fish” two decades later, writing Michelle Rodriguez & Kristanna Loken’s Bloodrayne underwater fight scene, and — well — read this interview.
