Tomorrow I can bitch about how "The Hobbit" will be filmed in 3D.

1. Tim Gunn makes a PSA for 'It Gets Better', talks about his own suicide attempt as a gay teen.

Oh, Tim Gunn. ♥ The love I have for you. Moreover, if you go down the comments section, someone embedded a Larry King video where he hosts a forum of gay celebs and icons (Gunn among them), talking about the recent escalation in anti-gay bullying and the suicides.

2. The Jewish Standard drops same-sex wedding notifications in its weddings section, to the outrage of many readers.

I'm not a reader of this paper, but let me tell you, if someone rants at you in Yiddisch about your homophobia and discrimination, you should listen.

3. Horrifying homophobic newspaper cover in Uganda leaks names of '100 top homos', tells to hang them.

File that under "monsters! not just at your neighborhood!". Tip of the iceberg, I'm sure.

4. Spirit Day

It’s been decided. On October 20th, 2010, we will wear purple in honor of the 6 gay boys who committed suicide in recent weeks/months due to homophobic abuse in their homes at at their schools. Purple represents Spirit on the LGBTQ flag and that’s exactly what we’d like all of you to have with you: spirit. Please know that times will get better and that you will meet people who will love you and respect you for who you are, no matter your sexuality. Please wear purple on October 20th. Tell your friends, family, co-workers, neighbors and schools.

RIP Tyler Clementi, Seth Walsh (top)
RIP Justin Aaberg, Raymond Chase (middle)
RIP Asher Brown and Billy Lucas. (bottom)

REBLOG to spread a message of love, unity and peace.




Oy vey, people. Oy vey.
