(Community Matters) turns out Doug Manchester, the developer of the 
proposed 50-story convention hotel promotes discrimination against gays – donated over $125,000 to discriminate against CAs LGBT community, to overturn Prop 8. NOT the type of business partner with whom the City of Austin should be doing business. I’m hoping our council won’t consider granting waivers and concessions to a developer who promotes discrimination against gays and lesbians. AAS story

It's about community, entrepreneurs, politics, art . . and sometimes just silly fun . . . a slightly gay blog.Eugene Sepulveda
Love big West Texas skies, the unimpeded horizons of the coasts, Austin and my husband, the Rev. Dr. Steven Robert Tomlinson, with whom I’ve spent the last 24 years – nineteen years since we were married on Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, Canada. Then, married again at St. James Episcopal Church in Austin, TX on June 27, 2015.
