We made a few modifications to the blogrolls … Pittsburgh's Gay Male Blog – a fun sometimes serious frolic through Pittsburgh's gay male world. lots of gay male pictures interspersed with great commentary on the Catholic church. Transburgh – excellent resource for Pittsburgh's trans community. my friend is the author and working on a related podcast. […]
Just some random Saturday morning LGBTQ stuff … Pam's House Blend contributor Ken from Mississippi has a nice little piece on the activism of coming out. As I've said many times here at the little coffeehouse, the most radical, powerful bit of activism that we can do as LGBT citizens is to come out of […]
Sigh. PittGirl. She gets all the cool guys. Eric Heyl reads her blog AND sends her email. And uses queering as a verb. I was all sad and sighy for a few moments. No one from the Trib reads this blog and I make relentless references to them. Sigh. However, not all is lost for […]
You aren't that surprised are you? The Trib's editorial board clicked their heels and jumped into line with the right wingnuts clamoring about the House of Representative's extension of federal hate crime protections to the LGBT community. It passed 237 to 180 while a companion bill works its way through the Senate. W, of course, […]
I spent 90 minutes detailing what I deemed an historic event for Pittsburgh's LGBT community and the local Democratic Party. The party detailed it thusly (h/t Progress Pittsburgh): GLBT: A good crowd representing the GLBT community in the area met with a dozen candidates and discussed issues of concern within the community, raising health care […]

This is really long, but read to the end for the outcomes. First, here are the Steel-City endorsements and here are those of the Gertrude Stein Club. Tonight Ledcat and I scurried home to let the dogs out and head over to Shadyside for an historic meeting — the first ever LGBT forum sponsored by […]

Darnell Jones II, Seamus McCaffery, Debra Todd, Christine Donohue, Ann E.

The absurd …a father is suing an Arkansas library because his sons “stumbled across” the Whole Lesbian Sex Book which disturbed them greatly. I believe the quote is that they had two sleepless nights at his house. Hmm … The ridiculous …Rudy Guiliani does a big and very public flipflop on civil unions. In case […]
