Disney gets gayer, Ice and Fire gets straighter, and and Iran gets GOP guff, as your AggreGAYter deep brews.
The Good
The President of Uganda may let sleeping laws lie.
RIP Lauren Bacall. The world just became a little more irregularly pronounced.
Queer culture is totes Disneyfied. Or vice versa. Either way, we’re all fabulous.
The Bad
Westeros is not a democracy.
The ICE detainee rape survivor has been placed in solitary confinement.
Oh look, here’s the intersection of transphobia, homophobia, racism, and sexism.
The Fugly
This Virgin Islands pastor goes hog wild against marriage on the radio.
Homosexuality is not a chronic aberrant behavior.
Conservatives are crying out for LGBTQ civil rights… in Iran.
