- Hate Group Westboro Baptist Church to Picket Glee Star Cory Monteith’s Funeral
It wasn’t enough for them to assail the deceased actor as they impugned the his girlfriend and co-star Lea Michele and called for her suicide to join and marry her deceased boyfriend in Hell informing the cruel inhumanity and vicious hate of the group claiming adherence to Christ’s love.
- Lez Miserable: "What if I want to go and be really dykey in Moscow? I can’t"
In legislating to treat tourists the same way as nationals, Russia is actually giving cushioned Brits like me a taste of what it’s like to be Russian and gay. Or Egyptian and gay. Or Jamaican and gay. It’s so easy to forget that homosexuality is still illegal in great chunks of the globe. Laws like those just passed in Russia are a stark reminder that we who can openly love whoever the hell we want at home are so often criminals abroad. Obviously, Russia isn’t the first country to extend its anti-gay laws to tourists. I could no sooner be openly gay in Russia than I could in Uganda, Burma or Saudi Arabia. Although this doesn’t detract from the fact that there’s now another 6.6 million square miles of the planet on which I badly need to keep schtum about that digging muff thing I have going on. Easier said than done; concealing a full-on lesboner can be tricky. Trust me on this one.
More things from before my computer died:
- Thanks to the Supanova forums I've been catching up on cosplay photographs. Much easier than taking your own pictures! XD There's some great photos here:
Dark Merchant
Chris Topher
Pireze
Andy Wana
The last two are professional photographers so they're very different, but spectacular photos.
- Former Crimewatch presenter Nick Ross seems to think there are parallels between rape and property theft
In an extract from his book, Crime, published in the Mail today, Ross reveals that he has been afflicted with a terrible case of visual agnosia which has left him unable to tell the difference between vaginas and laptops.
