Queer
Fauxmosexuals and celesbianism
They are both the awesome words of the day!
A fauxmosexual is a hetero who tries use celesbianism as a marketing ploy a la Katy Perry. Why? Because celesbians are only famous for being lesbians and very little else. It's like shooting fish in a barrel in a culture where media presentations of lesbians are the most often borne of male heterosexual sexual fantasies.
So even if it is surprising it is not shocking that Katy Perry would jump on the celebianism bandwagon to move an album or two. Up until last year she was a daughter of Christian Evangelical pastors, struggling as a Christian pop-singer under the name Katy Hudson.
Cue an overnight makeover, some fauxmosexual lyrics, a masterfully manufactured image and behold! A new, improved and, it goes without saying, successful product.

Compassionate Michelle Malkin chooses hard-core porn star and male prostitute over feminist bloggers
Not only that, Matt Sanchez, who also worked as a male prostitute, claims to be "bad at being gay".
Towelroad has the whole story. And, get this, Pat at Towelrod met him 18 years ago --as a gay man.
Could he have gone to the same rehab center as Ted Haggard?
Anyhow, this is the drivel Michelle Malkin posted about the 'situation':
Last night, hate-filled liberals on MSNBC attemped to smear Marine Corporal Matt Sanchez and conservatives who honored him at CPAC for his support of the military at Columbia University. They gleefully showed photos of Cpl. Sanchez at the event--including ones I took--in mockery after his gay porn past was outed by left-wing blogs. They cackled "Semper Fi."
I said the other day I thought CPAC organizers would be justified in being embarrassed if the rumors about Sanchez's porn star past 15 years ago turned out to be true. Well, the rumors are true. But it is neither CPAC nor Cpl. Sanchez who should feel embarrassed.
Wow! Sister is so compassionate. I had no idea given all the digital ink she wasted in calling Amanda Marcotte a nut during her Christian League vs. Edwards Bloggers debacle.

To each their own oppression
i'm bored with the oppression olympics
(yawn)
i'm serious. can we stop saying that i am more oppressed than you? because there will always be someone else who experiences different forms of oppression at different levels.
The Pasta God, Blind Faith in School and Juicy-Fruit Holiday Slobbers
Liza gave us little plastic bricks rather than edible eggs and peeps for Easter, but now the Pastafarians present (entirely in Legos) the amazing Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster!
Thus edible faith has now been rendered in the true building blocks of the universe, Legos, which although not edible, do multiply miraculously like the symbolic foods of the faithful -- Legos are limitless fishes and loaves in every room of OUR house, how about yours?
I've always had transcendent faith in food as holy, in chefs and chocolatiers as divine. My own most enduring ritual of faith is devouring human creativity in any form it presents itself. I'm not such an omnivore as Anthony Bourdain and his extreme cuisine -- his favorite eggs are the eggs of sea urchins, not exactly conducive to the traditional holiday rituals I know! -- but I do enjoy a variety of foods and well-rendered cultural infusions and combinations, and as you'd expect now that you're getting to know me, I especially savor the stories BEHIND the food.
