Some things you might have missed. Allegheny County Council might pass a countywide anti-discrimination bill that protects us based on sexual orientation and gender identity. The legislation would establish a county Human Relations Commission. I know some folks who have been working on this. It is good news for the region. Without dragging out the […]
I belong to a community email list, identified as a Northside resource but focused mostly on the War Streets and surrounding communities. It is riotous group filled with a small core of virulently anti-homeless agitators. Not those who agitate to end homelessness, but to end the homeless. I am only slightly exaggerating. I was at […]
This is from a Joel Stein in Sunday's Post-Gazette. Does it work for you? He's effete He's well-dressed. He eats arugula — which he buys at Whole Foods. He mocks those who use guns. He is, as we mentioned, quite thin. He may only be half-black, but he's three-quarters gay. Eh.
What a fun, fun movie. With a lovely gay twist. I must admit I still find Colin Firth very fetching. And criticism of Pierce Brosnan's singing is unwarranted. It is campy as can be and he's a delight! Sure, they could have found a hottie who could truly sing (think Ewan McGregor at age 50), […]

The legislation attempted to prohibit legal recognition of non-marital relationships in Pennsylvania including marriages of same-sex couples and […]
So I asked Vice-Chair, Kat Carrick, how the everyday Pittsburgh queer can help with the relocation of the GLCC. Rest assured the organization has been working for many months on this very issue — we all know they've planned to move even if we weren't aware of the impendingness of the whole situation. There's something […]
Today, my brother's wife asked me to change my profile picture on Facebook. You can't see my profile unless you are my friend so there's no sense my posting a link (you can search for me if you want to be my friend). However, the image is the logo at the top of the blog. […]
