On Theism

Written in response to this urban legend…
I find it hard to reconcile a god that would provide water for Hagar’s dying child and yet allow millions of children to be tortured in Treblinka and Auschwitz Birkenau.
But then again, it’s not the concept of god I find abhorent. Some people need to believe in a [...]

Where is My Martin Luther Queen?

I’ve been sitting here for hours trying to top Max Mutchnick’s brilliant article put together my thoughts about what it means to be “non-mainstream gay” but this captures it perfectly.
Dykes on bikes, Tarzana Trannies, Jewish Leather Daddies and Kathy Griffin’s mom. Don’t get me wrong. I love these people. Let’s call them the “Usual Suspects.” [...]

The Sanctity of What Now?

I don’t see any devout, church-going “Christians” getting all up in arms about this:

A real Las Vegas tradition. For the couple that wants to have some fun and tell their friends they got married at a “Drive Thru” wedding window in Las Vegas. Weather you come in your car, motorcycle, bicycle, or our Stretch Limousine [...]

I Die A Little

 Amidst the ensuing turmoil when California decided to UPHOLD Proposition 8, I couldn’t help but just fall on my  knees and cry hard. 
 Today, in California, and in many other parts of the world, I am a second-class human being. 
 In Seattle, I would have a hard time finding a place to grab a beer without the [...]

Why?

On this especially gay episode of Things I Don’t Understand:

trained 300 new air force weapons systems officers
30 awards and decorations
9 air medals
1 heroism award
2 years from full retirement with benefits

Fired for being gay. WHY???

Day Without a Gay

Tomorrow is apparently Day Without a Gay.

We’re supposed to “call in gay” and fight hate with love by volunteering for community service. 
First of all, while I agree that the economy as we know it would come to a standstill (not to mention the collapse of the fashion world) if homosexuals everywhere were to stop working. [...]

Fuck You Prop 8 – Redux

I’ve been trying to string sentences together to make sense of the craziness that is what happened in Arizona, Arkansas, and ESPECIALLY California.
But I can’t.
It’s just too heart-breaking.
Kind of like shitting out a hummer. Sideways.
Melissa Etheridge, though, that poet can sure write. So I’m reposting (again) from The Daily Beast:

Okay. So Prop 8 passed. Alright, [...]

Love & Hate

Every blogpost out there is going to be about Obama ushering in a sweeping change. I’m happy about that. I LOVE that we’re going to get a fresh perspective. I LOVE that there’s new leadership. I LOVE that I live in a time when the leader of the free world is someone who would’ve been [...]

No to Prop 8

Classic PC vs Mac ad… Wait… no… LOL

This one really cracked me up.

Finally, from the voice of God himself: Samuel L. Jackson. As much as I want him to, he doesn’t say “I’ve had it with these motherfucking bigots in this motherfucking proposition!”

FUCK YOU PROP 8

I tried to come up with something a little bit more eloquent for a post title but my eloquence jacket is still at the dry cleaners. Plus I was just overcome by sheer repulsion that I was almost physically ill from seeing the website of the people that want to “protect marriage”. In the interests [...]

No To Hate

Today I am shamelessly plagiarizing (with permission) from an AWESOME blogger over at Whiskey in my Sippy Cup.

I mean, seriously awesome. With a title like “Whiskey in my Sippy Cup“, how can it not be awesome? The title alone is enough to send my tics into overdrive: feel the eees blend into the consonants and [...]

Survivor: Mar-GAY-sas

True testament to my firm celebrating diversity in the workplace:
Bangkok’s Patpong is alive and well in Manila. And in my office.

I’ll load the video soon. It’s pretty kickass.
And here’s the video!

I don’t THINK I’m Gay…

 
In this article, the author presents an interesting thought: what if you only THOUGHT you were gay? 
I’ve always been a proponent of free speech, so I’ll resist the temptation to start rolling on the floor laughing my ass off. 
I don’t even know where to start tearing this article apart: whether or not the author did [...]

Another One Bites The Dust

 
 
 
Although other countries made the first move, when Massachusetts decided to recognize the union of two loving adults, regardless of biological sex or sexual orientation, it was the shot heard around the world. The greatest nation of our time was finally coming around to the idea that gay marriage isn’t really gay marriage. It is just [...]
