Happy Endings: The Day Michigan Faglings Need Your Help
C'mon, Do Something Good For A Change...

• Nobody likes a bully. They're brutish, nasty and their love lives are generally short. Yet they keep on bullying, particularly little gay boys and girls. Michigan's Triangle Foundation intends to stop them. The non-profit's been lobbying to pass Matt's Safe Schools Law. Named after Matt Epling -a 14-year old who killed himself after persistent bullying - the law will enact and enforce comprehensive anti-bullying regulations.

Through their tireless efforts, the Triangle Foundation successfully rallied a majority of lawmakers to support Matt's Law. Unfortunately, those nasties on the right managed to sway a few to the dark side. So, the Triangle Foundation wants all Michigan residents to contact their elected officials to put an end to this shit once and for all.

• We don't know how we missed this intriguing revolting piece of gossip, but Pete Doherty used to sell himself to "lonely pissed-up old queens". Guess you have to stay strung out somehow, huh?

• Our favorite sappho-journo Kerry Eleveld has penned on op-ed on the pros and cons of abandoning "marriage". She writes: "What if, instead of crashing the marriage party, the LGBT movement fashioned its own celebrations infused with the same legal protections given to spouses? We could probably redefine the currency of love for America faster than we could build popular support for gay marriage."

• Possibly one of the most disturbing stories we've heard in a long-time: 42-year old Kevin Whitrick hung himself on the internet. While some people urged him to stop, others encouraged him. One particularly nasty fuck said: "Fucking do it, get on with it, get it round your neck. For Fuck's sake he can't even do this properly". That's disgusting.

• OMG! A church has barred gay people from practicing their chosen religion? Insane!

• The murdered trannie from San Franny has a name: Ruby Rodriguez.

Cord Jefferson may not appreciate Shemar Moore's hot bod, but we sure as hell do. But, yes, he's acting a little shameful for a TV Guide event. Although, when you think about it, isn't going to a TV Guide event the most shameful of 'em all?

ACT-UP's celebrating 20 years of direct action with - what else - direct action. Tomorrow. Wall Street. Noon. Wear something gay.

The name of transgendered woman killed in San Francisco is Ruby Rodriguez. Tina D'Elia works at a non-profit, Communitites United Against Violence, in SF.
