Texas gets in line, Hawaii starts a new tourist industry, and Britney says more stuff any sweet, special, Southern gal might say, as your AggreGAYtor thinks, “Bless her heart.”

The Good

As Oklahoma doubles down on its anti-marriage attacks on servicemembers, Texas backs down and does the right thing.

Aloha, marriage! Sure, we’d love to see the slides.

Pope Francis is giving some gays hope for a better world, although some recent Vatican reforms smack of business as usual (see outlawing whistleblowing and child sexual abuse at the same time).

The Bad

Oops! Your AggreGAYtor is guilty of bi-erasure in the case of olympic diver Tom Daley. Wishful thinking.

The Fugly

Can we leave Britney alone, already? It’s not like we’re going to stop gobbling up her… music.

Knockout attacks: they aren’t just for old people anymore. Maybe Fox News will stop making hay (falsely), now that the target is gay kids.

It Came from the Tubes

Naturally NSFW.
