It is becoming increasingly obvious that David Bowie has established a better alternate universe and is populating it selectively one-by-one.

The Appropriate Slogan
Since I plan to participate in the Women's March on Washington next month, it's time to consider what my sign should say. At the moment I'm leaning toward "Dyke Against Mike" or "Lesbian Pussy Protector."

A Call to Ferret--Again
Tony Perkins, head of the Family Research Council and all-around gay-hater, released a statement urging President-elect Trump to purge the State Department of the "LGBTQ and abortion activists" President Obama installed who "promote the Left's view" of sexuality and abortion rights.
The statement said, "The incoming administration needs to make clear that these liberal policies will be reversed and the 'activists' within the State Department promoting them will be ferreted out and will be replaced by conservatives who will ensure the State Department focuses on true international human rights like religious liberty which is under unprecedented assault."
Somewhere Joe McCarthy and Roy Cohn are doing the bunny hop.

The Dildo Defense
Here's something you don't hear every day.
A couple of nights ago, a masked man walked into Lotions and Lace, a sex shop in San Bernadino, Calif., as the employees were closing up.
"I just thought he was trying to be funny, to scare us," the woman in charge, "Amy," told a local TV station. "But then I saw the gun and it was like, really? I don't have time for this."

"I just thought he was trying to be funny, to scare us," the woman in charge, "Amy," told a local TV station. "But then I saw the gun and it was like, really? I don't have time for this."
No indeed. She had a store to close. Sex toys to count.
He pointed the gun, which Amy didn't think was real, said this was a robbery and grabbed her arm, at which point the other female employee started hurling dildos at him. With Amy yelling and the other woman pelting him with distinctively shaped silicone, the would-be thief exited the store. He left with no cash in hand, and little dignity to speak of.
Click here to see the video, because it could be a while before you again have a chance to see flying dildos. Unless they catch on as a method of foiling robberies.

Possession Obsession
In this first bizarre month after Trump's election, it's easy to believe that things can't get any crazier. Two LGBT news stories this week said otherwise.
On his TV show called "Pray in Jesus Name," Gordon Klingenschmitt, a Colorado state legislator, addressed the fact that Zales included a lesbian couple in a recent TV ad. All involved, he said, are under demonic possession.
“It is a demonic spirit not only inside of the lesbian couple who are pretending to get married in this TV commercial, but now influencing and ruling in the hearts of the ad executives who have decided at Zales Jewelers that they should promote this as a good thing to all of America,” said Klingenschmitt.
Meanwhile, an organization out of New Jersey called the Spiritual Science Research Foundation is offering this on its website: "The main reason behind the gay orientation of some men is that they are possessed by female ghosts."
It's that "female ghost in them that is attracted to other men. Conversely the attraction to females experienced by some lesbians is due to the presence of male ghosts in them."
Ghostly possession explains up to 85 percent of gay people, claims the paranormal group.
With all those ghosts and demons inside us, every gay person is a crowd. Now you know why wherever gay people go, there's a party.

A Celebratory Poem
Election Day was nearly a month ago, but today a certain governor of North Carolina conceded to challenger Roy Cooper. In 2016, we'll take any good election news we can. And make it rhyme. Sort of.
There was a southern governor named McCrory,
Who thought HB2 was hunky-dory.
The economy took a whack,
And voters gave him the sack.
No longer does Pat guard the lavatory.

The 2016 Welcome Wagon
Noted homophobe and Vice President-elect Mike Pence is temporarily renting a home in the Chevy Chase neighborhood of Washington, D.C. Several of his new neighbors responded by hanging rainbow flags from their homes.
There's even talk of delivering rainbow cakes to Pence's door. Such neighborliness. That's sure to make the Midwesterner feel right at home.
