Texas Republicans give a little log cabin realness, GOProud goes down, and Africa seeks ways to unite and fight, as your AggreGAYtor calls, "Bologna!"
The Good

Cyprus hosts its first pride parade.
GOProud will go work out its issues and relaunch.
Medicare will now (sometimes) cover transition surgery.
The Bad
African academics are struggling to understand and confront the growing anti-gay crisis on the beleaguered continent.
The Fugly
Jonah Hill pulled an Alec Baldwin recently, but has apologized.
New York clearly hasn’t evolved beyond bathroom panic, even when it comes to dudes.
