When I joined Pinterest, I started a set of boards for my work projects and a set for my personal life. Unfortunately (???) I defaulted to work pins because it was easier. I have to take the effort to log out and back in to post to my PghLesbian boards so I rarely do it. […]
Seems like a former schoolboard member of the Dallastown School District is up in arms over a screening of “Out In The Silence” sponsored by the Dallastown Gay Straight Alliance.

I am very proud of Mayor Ravenstahl for contributing a video to the “It Gets Better” anti-bullying project. This is the sort of leadership we need from our allies. I hope the Mayor will take a few steps down Grant Street to support the kids at the Gay & Lesbian Community Center in both the […]
Wednesday evening we had an unexpectedly amusing stint as the official coat check girls women at a fundraiser for Bruce Kraus' bid for a second term as City Councilor. To be honest, the whole coat check thing scares me. I prefer to keep my coat close at hand in case a speedy retreat is in order. I […]
Chris Colfer won for Best Supporting Actor in a TV or whatever the category is. He also denounced bullying in his speech. During his tender acceptance speech, Colfer gave thanks to 'the kids that our show celebrates that are constantly told no by bullies in their school and they can't be who they are…Well, screw that, […]
