For years, I have secretly conducted field tests on holiday celebrations, maintaining detailed notes on their good points and bad. Based on extensive surveys of exactly one person — me — I’ve devised this completely accurate ranking of the holidays, from best to worst:

Stunning. And for only $500, he’ll run a personality test for you. That’s a way better deal than the one Scientologists offer. And he’s totally not a quack because the logo at the bottom of his website says he’s “Endorsed by therapists”. So there.
You can spend your money however you like, but if you spend it on this man, you’re a fucktard.
All cards on the table: I’m a huge fan of the Elder Scrolls series. I spent months playing Morrowind and even longer on Oblivion. When it comes to sandbox games, few can top these for the breadth of possibilities they offer.
However, the Elder Scrolls series isn’t without its problems, and although Skyrim has received loads of accolades, I think it may be the worst of the bunch. Here’s why:
At Sisters Mainstreet Café in Spencer this morning, Perry made the rounds glad-handing with the coffee shop patrons and stopped when he set his eyes on one voter with a long white beard.
“We got you a lot going on there,” Perry said as he tugged at the man’s beard. “You’ve got a good full one.”
Shortly after, at his second event at La Chiesa in Spencer, Perry approached another voter who bore a full white beard.
“I like your beard,” Perry said as he greeted one voter and expressed a touch of jealousy that he can’t grow one of his own.
I mean, there were key parties, too, y’know.
Woo-hoo! Ted Mahne gave us a great review in the Times-Picayune. (Even Jonno got a mention: “MYSTERIOUS”.)
Hope those of y’all who are in New Orleans can come out and enjoy the show. Get your tickets right over here!
Note: I wrote the bulk of this article for Gaywheels earlier today, but since most of you probably don’t keep up with that site, maybe it’ll be new.
Scientists first became aware of AIDS 30 years ago. At the time, I was too young to fully understand what was going on, but as a kid who knew he was attracted to other boys, it was a terrifying development. There was so much uncertainty surrounding the disease, so much finger-pointing, so much name-calling and blame and moral outrage that it was impossible to see the facts.
Thankfully, we’re in a different place now. Scientists have a much better understanding of the disease, and today’s medicines have dramatically increased life expectancies for people living with HIV — as much as 53 years (or more) from the time of infection. Advances in technology also mean that many researchers are once again talking about a cure for HIV – something they haven’t done in decades. The battle isn’t over, but slowly, HIV is becoming a chronic condition rather than a fatal disease. And yet, there’s still a huge stigma surrounding HIV-positive people. That has to change.
I bring this up because today, like every December 1, is World AIDS Day. It’s an opportunity to remind people about how far humankind has come in its fight against HIV and AIDS and how far we still have to go. It’s also a time for many of us to remember friends and family who’ve died from AIDS and to think about the many, many HIV-positive folks in our circles who are living happy, healthy, normal lives.
Take a few minutes out of your day and to contribute to the cause — financially or in other ways. Here are five things you can do to make a difference.
