Attitude Interviewer: What would you say is the gayest thing about you?
Stephen Fry: Um, my preference for men and having sex with them rather than women in the end must be it.

I like being open and telling people random crap (or possibly sexy crap) about myself. :D
Anon is on, also. (Or at least, it should be.)
Can’t sleep, so if anyone is feeling curious, now is the time. :)

Last week, Danielle Corns was sentenced to 10 months in prison for momentarily stealing two left-footed trainers during riots in Wolverhampton. As she was sentenced, her mum Sharon began shouting at the judge from the public gallery: “You’re destroying an innocent girl’s life… How can you do that to somebody?” As she screamed, her daughter began to cry, and Sharon was...

FAVORITE DOCTOR WHO QUOTES
The First Doctor: The least important things, sometimes, my dear boy, lead to the greatest discoveries.
The Second Doctor: Well now I know you're mad, I just wanted to make sure.
The Third Doctor: Courage isn't just a matter of not being frightened, you know. It's being afraid and doing what you have to do anyway.
The Fourth Doctor: You're a classic example of the inverse ratio between the size of the mouth and the size of the brain.
The Fifth Doctor: An apple a day keeps the... Ah, never mind.
The Sixth Doctor: Planets come and go. Stars perish. Matter disperses, coalesces, forms into other patterns, other worlds. Nothing can be eternal.
The Seventh Doctor: Yes, that's right, you're going. You've been gone for ages. You're already gone. You're still here. You've just arrived. I haven't even met you yet. It all depends on who you are and how you look at it. Strange business, time.
The Eighth Doctor: I love humans. Always seeing patterns in things that aren't there.
The Ninth Doctor: The thing is, Adam, time travel is like visiting Paris. You can't just read the guidebook, you've got to throw yourself in! Eat the food, use the wrong verbs, get charged double and end up kissing complete strangers!
The Tenth Doctor: People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect... but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly... timey-wimey... stuff.
The Eleventh Doctor: The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.

Dear e-Books, I don't care how heavy they are. I... →
One of the reasons I wouldn’t care for an e-Book is because you would no longer be able to borrow or lend books. I love sharing my favourite books with people, and having people share theirs with me! (Also I want a big, big library.. I love shelves full of books. But I do care about trees, so, conflict!)

Cis Privilege: Refusing "Cis"
hobbitdragon:
People have been saying all sorts of things in response to my last post about labeling a cis person cis even if they don’t like the word.
This word has no historical baggage or history of being weaponized. It simply means “gender identity matches with that assigned at birth.” It is not belittling. It is not insulting. It does not erase their gender. It simply describes fact.

St. Petersburg, Russia passes LGBT silencing law →
gaywrites:
The city of St. Petersburg in Russia passed the fervently debated law banning “gay propaganda,” namely any gay action or speech in public.
Though people in St. Petersburg protested the law, it was rushed through the Legislative Assembly. The law prohibits “propaganda” of “sodomy, lesbianism, bisexualism and transgenderism, and pedophilia to minors,” essentially outlawing everything...

gemmaseymour:
I don’t know about you, but when I was a kid, we didn’t have XBoxes and PS3s and DSs and iPods and the Internet and we weren’t so afraid of pedophiles, so we played outside our houses. With each other. In groups, even. Like, we went over to our friends’ houses, and ate whatever their parents made us for lunch. We didn’t even have to call. All we had to do was be home by suppertime,...

“I was screaming, ‘I am pregnant, I am pregnant. Let me through. I am trying to get out.’” At that point, Fox continues, a Seattle police officer lifted his foot and it hit her in the stomach, and another officer pushed his bicycle into the crowd, again hitting Fox in the stomach.
