Fat-Booty Butch Buys A Suit On A Budget
Taxes and GLAADThank You, Uncle Sam for the pennies you call a tax-refund. Living right on and sometimes even below the poverty line made it so easy for me to view my tax refund as a way to live big for awhile. I used to spend that change on well-deserved bullshit: bottle-poppin’, new kicks, cab rides from the city to my crib in the Bronx, fancy dinners, illicit activities and buying people’s…

Fixing Your Summer Caffeination Situation With Iced Tea, Simple Syrups and Drink Recipes

Lumberjanes #3 Has Adventure, Math and Science and Logic To The Max!
by rory midhani
In Issue #3 of Lumberjanes, we pick up right where we left off last issue, with Mal, Jo, April, Molly and Ripley lost in a cave after falling down a wild and winding hole deep underground. Clearly, the only way they can go is forward, so on they go, deep into the weird underground temple that seems to be underneath their camp. Although they say there wasn’t a chapter on creepy…
I found a tiny bit of space in the back of my brain where I could keep things I didn’t want to think about anymore and that’s where I put it. It was unwise, I realize, in retrospect, to move such a huge thing into that small space so early on in my life. There wasn’t much room left for terrible things that hadn’t happened yet. So I guess you could say I chose to be strong then but it made me so much more fragile, too.
I did the dirty work responsible to write this article, risking everything to bring you the news direct from the trenches. It required me rewatching the three episodes where Jackie, an actual bisexual singer who had moved to Miami from New York sans-boyfriend and plus-girlfriends, shows up in Kourtney’s art class. Jackie and Kourtney hit it off even though Kourtney is only the third most dateable Kardashian sister.
The grief was just so enormous. We sat in silence in a living room that once contained so much light in a house in the country where everything was so quiet you could hear your own heart break at night, and we did.

This Thing Bigger Than Us: Self-Reflect for The Best Pride Ever
Feature image by Kenneth K. Lam/Baltimore Sun
For me, Pride is like New Years. It is a time to reflect on how far we’ve come and how much my life has changed. Since I haven’t been out for very long (this year will mark my third out Pride), the day still evokes vivid memories. I spent my first one eating bad burritos, wandering around in the heat sweating glitter, and crying into mimosas over…

Obama Will Finally Sign Executive Order for LGBT Workplace Protection, ENDA Still Nowhere in Sight
Despite the Obama administration’s general trend of ‘evolution’ on LGBT issues — the repeal of DOMA, Obama’s support of marriage equality, inclusivity for trans students under Title IX, Medicare’s coverage of gender confirmation surgery — there’s always been one issue they’ve refused to move on. For several years, there’s been pressure on the White House to sign an executive order for LGBT…

Welcome back to the show you probably already binged last weekend but have been forced to never discuss by an army of coworkers and Facebook friends who can’t commit. Note: Yes, I have finished the entire season.
