Tell us about a time when you didn’t bend to peer pressure, and you swam against the stream. AND Write about anything you’d like, but make sure that all seven colors of the rainbow — red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet — make an appearance in the post, either through word or image. Hello. My […]
Just when you think … oh who am I kidding? This doesn’t suprise anyone. Speaking on the extension of equal marriage benefits to same-sex couples in the state, Lehigh County Commissioner Tom Creighton made the comments whilst pushing an amendment which would deny equal benefits to same-sex partners of county employees. “The state has a […]
The prompt: Will you dress up for Halloween? What will you be? Actually, I don’t have much to say about that question so I’m going to go rogue. To be fair, no I won’t wear a costume. I’ll wear my annual Halloween orange shirt when I hand out the candy. Woo hoo! I bought this shirt […]
I’m in the running for a partial scholarship to attend the national progressive “Netroots Nation” conference this June in San Jose, California. I’m the only person from Pgh (only 3 from PA total) and one of the few LGBTQ persons in the list. The top five vote getters will receive a scholarship and 15 more […]
If you have access to Sirius XM (and you can get trial access through the website) – I’ll be on the Michaelangelo Signorile show this afternoon at 4:30 PM. We’ll be discussing blogs, blocks, bans and Rick Santorum. See, it always comes back to him. Mike is also the editor-in-chief of HuffPost Gay Voices and […]
This is pretty awesome. Congressman Barney Frank and commentator Chris Matthews really push back on Family Research Council’s Tony Perkins religious defense of his bigotry. You may know this already but GLAAD has an interesting project called CAP – Commentator Accountability Project. They essentially make sure the media is aware of the bias and […]
The keyword searches leading people to this whole 22nd House District story are repulsive. Trying to get information from any source has been near impossible. I’m done with the coverage. I’m hoping Manchester is eventually absorbed into the Ravenstahl district and that’s my final word. Except for this – every so called “progressive” should choke […]
A few days ago, Ginny Montanez came out as a Republican on her very popular blog, That's Church. But this Sunday while reading an article about the Port Authority service cuts that went into effect today, I was first shocked to see the 67J was cut, because I assumed that was a pretty profitable and […]
The Defense of Marriage Act took another blow this when the Department of Justice (part of the Executive Branch) anounced it will no longer defend DOMA in court. Pittsburgh's own Reg Henry weighs in with a very pragmatic priece. DOMA, on the other hand, is increasingly uncool, being social and religious prejudice written into law. […]
The Steel City Stonewall Endorsement meeting was held Sunday afternoon on the Northshore. For a glimpse into “live” coverage, check out the hashtag PghGayPick. I was a little caught up in the 140 character frenzy because I wrote most of these tweets and can't interpret a few of them 🙂 Kudos to tweeps @Bram_R and @Maria_In_Pgh (who […]
