Douchebags of Grindr

(Community Matters) It’s a gay social media thing. Likely not very interesting to others.

no, I don’t have aps; I’m still on blackberry

update: I disconnected the hyperlink. MM mention there was a pornography ad as the site opened. I’m fairly oblivious to ads of any sort and hadn’t even noticed. Apologies to any who were offended.

2nd Downtown Convention Hotel

(Community Matters) Doug Manchester is promising to build this second hotel and his colleagues have adamantly expressed that he deserves City of Austin subsidies to do so.  If Austin subsidizes Doug Manchester’s development (even waiving fees) that’s putting money in his pocket to again fund pro LGBT discrimination campaigns. His letter of apology was remorseful about the LGBT community boycott of his San Diego hotel. He reserved the right to donate again.

“While I stand by my belief that as a private citizen I may make personal donations to causes and charitable organizations of my choosing . . . .”

The Atlantic: 15 Yrs After DOMA

(Community Matters) 15 Years After DOMA, Hearing Reveals a Nation Transformed

Nice story reminding us how far we have come. And, totally outrageous that the LGBT community is denied full equality in America – we have no federal (& few state) employment or housing protections much less equality in marriage or inheritance rights. Still, much, much progress in my life time. Hoping we wrap this second class citizenship up soon.
