How Many Ways Can You Say "Tall"? →
“Would you be upset if the dominating belief system in your country was...”
– From the threads of /r/atheism on Reddit, argument given to a Christian trying to say God is not the issue, it’s organized religion. This is how atheists are treated in America. I myself have never been treated this way for my lack of belief, but I know it’s waiting for me. (via bulletproofcupid)
The Blizzard Approaches...
Well, here comes the snow. It’s so odd, and rather foreboding, at this stage, you know? Just tiny, little flakes lightly tumbling through the air. To know that within the next few hours that tumble will build to become a full-blown blizzard; powerful & forcefully shutting down the entire city under several inches of snow is quite the commentary on the hold that nature will always have...
“Can you prove the existence of love?!!?”
– Actually, yes you can. Feelings of love are associated with chemical releases in the brain. But thanks for the snarky comment.
I fucking hate the holidays sometimes. (via helvetebrann)
Love it! (No pun intended.)
2010
mattthewscottt:
Here’s to the new friends I made..
Here’s to the friends that stayed when things got tough..
Here’s to the ‘friends’ that walked out of my life..
Here’s to the bitches who talked behind my back..
Here’s to my amazing new and old followers..
Here’s to the hateful anons..
And here’s to myself to make 2011 even better than 2010..
Cute…and hopeful.
“The weird thing is, Aaron is a very masculine guy with a deep voice. He plays...”
– Some lady ‘journalist’ in Marie Claire (I know, but still) talking about why she was surprised when her fiance broke off the engagement after nine years and told her he was gay (via The Hairpin). (via matthewgallaway)
Ugh. Just…ugh.

The Spoon Theory →
Wow, wow, WOW! I am sitting here just utterly floored by this, as it so perfectly describes my state of being and encompasses all the frustration, hurt, and heartache I’m trying to contend with in my HIV+ life.
Look…I don’t want to come off as some “Oh, woe is me” victim here, but if you have ever considered yourself to be a compassionate human being, you simply...

Classic 50's Film Warning of "The Homosexual" →
One never knows when the Homosexual might be about!
Watching this kind of makes me want to light up a Virginia Slim and say, “We’ve come a long way, Baby!”

Sorry If The Last Post Is A Downer...
But, I feel it’s important to share this with anyone who may not be as in touch with the current controversy going on at The National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C. The artist, AA Bronson, has asked for that piece to be removed from the current exhibit, “HIDE/SEEK
Difference and Desire in American Portraiture”, and his request has been denied. I find this to be shameful,...

Today's Step Toward Equality
I know I sound like a broken record, but I can’t help but think of Tyler Clementi today. It’s not surprising, I guess, when one considers how much this young man has come to mean to me over the last few months.
I think of young people out there tonight, watching DADT’s repeal on the news – bullied kids, kids who live in fear that their family & friends will leave them if...

Not To Dash Anyone's Hopes Too Badly, But... →
I’ve been receiving a number of questions and comments about the news of the German patient “cured” of HIV infection. Here’s a very clear explanation of why it’s not quite the thrilling news everyone so wants it to be.

I don't think I laughed this much in years! →
Try “decades”! Seriously…I’m fairly certain my neighbors just knocked on the wall to quiet me down. I’m cackling like a speed freak at 2:45am!

The Top 10 Reasons Every Straight Girl Needs A Gay... →
*I felt like I needed to post this one too — in counterpoint, if you will.
Now, I would guess that any friend of mine who is of the female persuasion would know right away which one in these is my favorite…

Seriously, my straight friends are nice and all, but they pretty much put a big fancy bow on all the bad advice they give me. Oh he didn’t call...

The Top 10 Reasons The Gays Need Women In Our... →
My favorite is #7: “Women are emotional and romantic and expect the men in their lives to be the same. To court them. To show them respect. And having girls in our lives helps us to be better men, even if we’re gay. We should all be more emotional. We should all feel deeply. And we should all write poetry and surprise our lovers and play a fool in love. Girls help remind us to do those...
