The Supremes take on marriage, Bruce Jenner shows his best side, and Ted Cruz fails to grasp the meaning of "fascism," as your AggreGAYtor votes Aydian Dowling.

The Good

SCOTUS is preparing to potentially set a watershed moment in LGBTQ civil rights.

Bruce Jenner came out as transgender in a way that was, well, good for the conversation.

Kenya’s high court just made a bold ruling that could have big ramifications.

West Virginia is celebrating the cutest prom date ever.

The queer kids are alright, but, as always, it can get better.

The Bad

The gay hoteliers who hosted Ted Cruz apologized under pressure from activist groups.

The Fugly

Marriage opponents are preparing to make a variety of arguments against equality.

Wake up, sheeple! The gay agenda is a tool of “liberal fascism” (whatever that is), according to Ted Cruz.
