On Wednesday night, Stephen Colbert took some time to meditate on the Masterpiece Cakeshop vs. Colorado case, in which the Supreme Court must decide whether baker Jack Phillips refusal to bake a cake for a gay couple’s wedding genuinely conflicts with his religious beliefs.
“Usually it’s a lot happier news when you hear a story about getting baked in Colorado,” Colbert quips.

In order to shed some light on the complicated issue, Colbert invited a so-called “anti-gay baker” named Daniel St. John Daniels onto the show.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
The supposed baker claims he was fired from Carvel for refusing to use the letters “LGBTQ,” which became truly problematic whenever he was asked to make a “Fudgie the Whale” cake.
However, he insists that he excels at making a cake featuring Pikachu saying “Sodomy is a sin.”
Oh, and he has a boyfriend, because love is love.

Why is it that the pre-roll commercials play when you are on mobile for Queerty but the actual content will not?

Same complaint here: Often the actual video won’t play, but boy, they sure can wedge in those commercials.
Worst of the lot: endless, repetitive, repeating, repetitious promos for the movie “Snatched”.

Had this same prob too. I just give up and move on before the commercial has to chance to influence me ! The commercials play perfectly but the video is screwed up

The video was hysterical. Stephen Colbert, I believe could take any subject and make it funny.

Queerty, you made me watch a nearly two minute ad about some girly man who’s engaged but have an open relationship to sell us on this HIV test kit….. But then the Stephen Colbert video doesn’t even play.
Can I have a refund on my two minutes? And oh…… Fix these videos!!!!!

Every time these anti gay religious freedom people are interviewed the to be called out for just being HOMOPHOBIC! Because they’re zeroing in on gays and not other sinners designated in the bible. They can’t stand it that we can get married and reap the benefits given married couples and even more what we do with our genitals. Born this way, baby! Nobody would choose to be gay and discriminated against.
