Scalia hedges, Disney deals with it, and Texas A&M goes for the gold, as your AggreGAYtor wonders, "Wasn't there some celebrity pop star, perhaps the daughter of a celebrity country music star, who we were supposed to focus on forever?"
The Good
-
A&M will host the first transgender NCAA division athlete, speaking for Coming Out Week.
-
Just look at all these happy queer Disneyland fans.
-
“MT Lambda’s flag display is constitutionally-protected speech – and here to stay.”

The Bad
-
A California college student has been expelled for having transitioned. This is going to get fugly.
The Fugly
-
Some of Justice Antonin Scalia’s best friends are gay “(Slate demurs).”
-
