The Washington Blade has an interesting article on the myth of gay affluence. A recently published survey by the Williams Institute of UCLA reveals that the percentage of lesbian and gay families living in poverty is significantly higher than same sex families. A new report from a think-tank on sexual orientation reveals how poverty is affecting […]
Click on the image for more details. I'm very pleased to share that Ledcat and I will be liveblogging from this year's auction. So even if you can't attend, send in your donation to the very worthwhile Persad Center and be part of the action from your very own computer. It is like our very […]
As you probably recall, Lambda recently celebrated 25 years of grant making, totalling nearly $1 million in support for Pittsburgh's LGBT community. A few thousand at a time. That's a lot of seeds, my friends. If you read through the list of grants, you'll see an interesting range in programs — HIV prevention, social and recreational […]
So, heck yeah, I’m still a little sore. Thanks for asking. I actually did pretty well until my last trip down the narrow flight of stairs at work. Thankfully, my wrists and fingers are fine so I can blog away. How about someone saw my Twitter updates about the Steel City Dems endorsement meeting and asked […]

FURTHER UPDATE: If you wonder why campaign contributions matter, check out this PG article on the connection between contributions and City contracts. Transparency, my friends. Michael Lamb gets transparency. ************************************************************************************ UPDATE: In response to some community outrage (after 10 minutes), let me be clear that I am not suggesting any specific improprieties on the part […]
I'm not sure what I have to offer on this topic tonight. First, let me direct you to some other offerings. Pam's House Blend shares some comments from our President-Elect: Today, because of the work of people like you, women in Kenya who were widowed by the disease, and once shunned by society, have banded […]
I recently interviewed Lambda Foundation Executive Director Anne Bowman about the 25th anniversary of the Foundation. 25 years is quite a milestone in gay history and the well-being of our community foundation is something to be mindful of as we celebrate our way through June. To purchase tickets for the Joan Rivers event, click here. Thank […]
I was very depressed after picking up this week's City Paper. The feature article on recycling was the slap in the face you really need even though it hurts like a bitch. Bill Driscoll confirms my deep seeded fear that the majority of my do-gooder efforts are essentially pointless because I take the easy way […]
