The Good

The Bad
Is it legal to be gay now in Uganda? (Hint: filed under The Bad).
The Dallas Voice may need to be a bit more careful with its editorial gusto.
The Fugly
Disreputed “ex-gay” quack ring NARTH is rebranding itself with a lot of cleavage and eye makeup.
Is James Franco trolling us or are we trolling him? Either way, can we drop it already?
