Looking forward to it!!

Also, there is a normal sized man out there somewhere claiming JUSTIN BIEBER beat him up?!

Wait, you can assult a paparazzi? I thought in California if you could catch 'em, you could kill 'em?

I regret that I've seen Battleshi*, and Alexander Skarsgard sure was a whiny little bitch in it! Was surprised, he does a lot better on the True Blood I'd watched!

Reminds me of the whole "take LSD 7 times and you're legally insane" thing!

Fuck yeah, he's gorgeous! What is it with male escorts losing their shit? Have they all been from elsewhere? Was the Sean Cody guy?

What isn't great if you're a hot 20-something???

My first thought too, even though it's mean! Somebody has the wear the flannel in the relationship, apparently.

Yeah, this is about the Bachman's pray away the gay type BS being forcibly inflicted on minors, not transsexual therapies. Still, I wouldn't have assumed CA is a hotbed for such places--anything in the bill to prevent parents from shipping kids off to ex-gay concentration camps out of state?

I agree with everything you said wholeheartedly! Now that I'm no longer an automatic 4F I find I'm too old for the present standards, but should something catastrophic happen I like to think I'd be right there with you volunteering. Though I'm guessing there are a great many people who volunteered post 9/11 who ended up in Iraq and were very disillusioned... I've expressed before how concerned I am that our military is much less of a melting-pot than ever before, not just the young but also those without economic options, leaving the middle and especially "upper" classes free from concern/involvement in a way unprecedented in our country's history.

I hope so too! I don't have much chance of making the next 500 but I've enjoyed the interaction the contest has encouraged and so have (so far) continued posting anyways.

As somebody who has no idea how to date or meetup in social situations this article is really interesting. So far I've just stuck to CL though, just like the article. Have had a phone capable of Grindr for almost a year now but haven't installed it... yet.

Also cute support of equality:

I'm starting to think Anderson must've co-majored in Journalism and Adorable. From Towle.

Eventually... ;o) But he is hot, and the male judge is hotter... What nationality are they? Eastern European/Russian?

Thanks, it's good to know some others are interested--I was starting to wonder. It kinda fascinates me because I figured having a lengthy atheist background they wouldn't have all the BS western hangups, but somehow they've acquired that in record time combined with vestiges of police-state... all quite sad, or worse, I'm sure, for those that live there.

You've probably seen it, but I thought this photo needed to be linked somewhere...

I've just never gotten into the Wes Anderson style. If I want to see awkward social interaction I can just go out and see it first hand, up close, anywhere I go!

George Will also sums it well: George Will Calls Donald Trump A ‘Bloviating Ignoramus’ Conservative columnist George Will criticized Donald Trump with colorful language on Sunday when asked on ABC’s “This Week” whether it helps Mitt Romney to ally with the billionaire real estate mogul. “I do not understand the cost-benefit here,” Will said. “The costs are clear. The benefits – what voter is going to vote for him because he’s seen with Donald Trump? The cost of appearing with this bloviating ignoramus is obvious, it seems to me. Donald Trump is redundant evidence that if your net worth is high enough, your IQ can be very low, and you can still intrude into American politics.” “But again – I don’t understand the benefit. What is Romney seeking?” he added. Trump recently re-erected his thoroughly debunked conspiracy theory that President Obama was not born in the U.S.

And it continues... Moscow police detain 40 as gay activists demand right to hold parade, face Christian protest By Associated Press, Published: May 27 MOSCOW — Gay activists tried to stage two demonstrations in Moscow on Sunday to demand the right to hold a gay pride parade in the Russian capital, but they were blocked first by Orthodox Christian opponents and then by police, who detained a total of about 40 people from both sides. The gay activists first gathered outside the city council building, where a few scuffles occurred as their opponents tried to disrupt the demonstration, decrying homosexuality as a sin. After police broke up that protest, another group tried to stage a second protest at city hall, but once again police moved in and detained participants, including prominent gay rights activist Nikolai Alexeyev. The majority of those detained were gay activists, but some of the Christian demonstrators also were pushed into police buses. Police said about 40 people were detained in all. Homosexuality was decriminalized in Russia in 1993, but anti-gay sentiment remains strong. Activists have long petitioned the Moscow government for permission to stage such a parade, but have always been denied. Former Mayor Yuri Luzhkov described gay parades as “satanic,” while current Mayor Sergei Sobyanin has said he disapproves of gay gatherings because they could offend the religious beliefs of many Russians. Gay activist Galina Kaptur criticized city authorities for treating homosexuality as a contagious disease that would be spread through society if gays were allowed to hold a parade. “It’s as if they thought that if all left-handed people held a parade, then afterward everyone would become left-handed,” Kaptur said. “This is wrong.” Among the opponents of gay rights was Dmitry Tsarionov, who spoke to the crowd in front of a sign that said “Moscow is not Sodom.” “I will not allow perverts to bring the wrath of God onto our city,” he said. “I want our children to live in a country where a sin that so awfully distorts human nature is not preached in schools.” This month, Alexeyev became the first person convicted under a new law in St. Petersburg, Russia’s second-largest city, which makes it a crime to spread “gay propaganda” among minors. Alexeyev was charged after he picketed St. Petersburg’s city hall with a placard that said “homosexuality is not a perversion.” He was fined 5,000 rubles (about $170). The Russian parliament is considering extending the measure nationwide, which gay activists say would make it even easier to ban their public demonstrations.

Some of those are adorable. It's hard to imagine such acceptance. Kids today...

You have a point, in fact I think properly it would be Governor Mittens, because--unlike a certain other early Republican primary contender, he at least completed his term as governor of a state.

I think if she wants to be the poster-child for pushing boundaries and be seen to be making major strides for the gay community a little risk comes with the territory. Somebody to shine a light on the hardline Islamists coming back into power all over the world would be a great cause for her to take up. So hopefully she uses this incident to that, instead of simply moving on to easier money...

I kind of liked this comic on the Holmes subject...
