Sign the petition to stop Uganda's anti-homosexuality bill →
change.org
You may have heard that Ugandan officials are once again attempting to pass a measure making homosexuality punishable by life in prison or even the death penalty. Not good at all.
A new Change.org petition is calling on Citibank and Barclays, two of the largest banks in the world and known LGBT supporters, to take a stance against the bill. Both banks have operations in Uganda and could therefore have a serious impact on the future of the bill.
According to the petition, which was created by Collin Burton of Washington, D.C., “Citibank and Barclays have unique and necessary voices that could help stop this bill in its tracks. Their presence in Uganda is significant, and their voices in opposition to the Anti-Homosexuality Bill could have a profound impact in keeping LGBT people safe in Uganda.”
Sign it here. This is important.
“Out had a poll for the most eligible gay bachelors, and Chris Colfer took top honors, followed by Clay Aiken. I think it’s great that Colfer is the most desirable bachelor, but part of me secretly wants him being known as a player around Hollywood like a couple of other openly (and closeted) gay actors I always hear about.”

There is a basketball game going on at my college right now… People have told me i should have gone because that’s how you meet people. Well the people I want to meet… are on tumblr so… there goes that theory.
“Fan fiction is what literature might look like if it were reinvented from scratch after a nuclear apocalypse by a band of brilliant pop-culture junkies trapped in a sealed bunker. They don’t do it for money. That’s not what it’s about. The writers write it and put it up online just for the satisfaction. They’re fans, but they’re not silent, couchbound consumers of media. The culture talks to them, and they talk back to the culture in its own language.”

This is probably the best, non-judgmental description of fan fiction I’ve ever heard of in main stream media.
“When Chris steps out of high school roles and into something bigger, though, that’s when I think we’ll really see him shine. With the right project and his caliber of talent, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see him up for an Academy Award within the next few years.”

“People say he wouldn’t have been so “lucky” if he wasn’t playing TV’s token gay teen. Well, let me tell you something. Untalented people don’t sing, act, and land book deals. Chris Colfer’s the real deal, people.”
