The media treats the GOP the way the GOP treats heterosexuality, as if they were the natural state of things and any deviation were artificial or decadent or temporary.  A primary avenue of normalizing Republicanism comes by making Democrats look like gender outlaws.
Hillary is a castrating shrew, Janet Reno is Chelsea Clinton’s father, Al Gore [...]

Do people really think that if the ban on gay Myrmidons is lifted, all of a sudden there will be this massive Guam-to-Guantanamo dance party and Osama will swoop in on a carpet and bomb everyone?  Is it that ten thousand faggots will suddenly want to fight for Amurrica, or that tough guys universally assumed [...]

So it seems like Prop 8 might really go down–at least until it reaches the Supreme Court, where Anthony Kennedy will decide for 20 million American homos what they can or cannot do.  I never really thought about it, but the courts really are a bad forum for the bad guys.  They aren’t permitted to [...]

I have to give Christwire credit.  Normally, when people who hate gay people open their mouths, the most trenchant remark they make approximates, “Butt sex!  Eww!”  It’s usually Godshit, because paranoia about the national character and the debilitating effects effeminacy will have on the general population fell away after WWII.

(I know, sexuality is fluid, people should do what they [...]

Another decade done, with my supreme goal of living to the age of 124 and dying in late 2105 incrementally closer.  It’s very trite to note that this was a disastrous decade for everything but quality food, music (and its accessibility) and truly outstanding television.  Democratic politics has become so depressing that the existence of [...]

I am so fucking tired of every tiny, poorly understood anomaly being held up as evidence that global warming is either a hoax or just plain not happening.  Today, evidence that glaciers on Mt. Shasta and Mt. Rainier are expanding is the latest cudgel against the future of human life on earth.  This is a [...]

States where more than 60% of people under thirty don’t care to tell people what to do with their lives.
