Boehner and half the Cheneys can’t see past their own noses, the Trans Day of Remembrance happens tonight, and queer homeless youth start making the news, as your AggreGAYtor’s little town blues start melting away.
The Good

A judicial challenge to Pennsylvania’s marriage ban is making progress through the courts.
