Another neighbor weighs in on the issue of equality in the Boy Scouts of America. My three sons and I have been actively involved in Boy Scouting for over 12 years. My eldest son is an Eagle Scout. Scouting has been an incredible experience for my sons, helping them to develop unparalleled leadership skills, a […]
A few weeks ago, I wrote about the decision of social media sharing site StumbleUpon to assign categories such a “lesbian culture” to the “not safe for work” listing. As a recap: when you like something & click to share to the site, you are prompted to indicate if the site is safe for work […]
It is only fitting that days after Amazon releases an “inclusive” commercial for their new Kindle, I am led to a series exploring the lives of transgender persons living on the brink (or deeply enmeshed in) poverty. The cause? Often related to their gender identity, especially in a fragile economy. “Transgender financial struggle: ‘How We […]
So, does it matter to you when advertisers incorporate LGBTQ identity into their commercials? This new ad for the Amazon Kindle has attracted a bit of attention because …… well, watch: I think it is perfectly fine and it is a sweet little twist on the traditional “guy hitting on married woman” meme.

When last we checked, Rudy Gagliardi of Arnold was defending his stance that homosexuals can change their ways. And he’s not even the worst of the bigots! Five people wrote in to challenge Gagliardi’s point of […]
There is so much awesome green information available and I miss blogging about it. So because a greener lifestye is part of our lesbian household mantra (albeit slow to be fully adopted), I’m going to incoporate the topic into this blog. Each Wednesday, I’ll write about a green topic. Big, small, little, etc. And feel […]
My first visit to Verde Mexican Kitchen and Cantina in Pittsburgh’s Garfield neighborhood was for a “tweetup” bringing together 25+ local social media users. Because I was volunteering for the evening’s charity of choice, I stopped by early to eat dinner without feeling rushed. I loved it so much that I purchased a gift card and […]
You may have noticed that we added a “product review and promotion policies” page. We’ve been asked to do some reviews so we want to make sure everyone is on the same “page” (ha) before we launch those features. It did get me thinking about various events and activities we’ve been asked to attend or […]
