When you don’t know anyone at the party, but everybody knows each other.

Venus de Internet

Artist Javi Castro took the words of Clara Oswald, "Run clever boy… and remember," and, uh, ran with it. The result is mesmerizing.

コーギーのかわいいおしりふりふり

It’s FRIDAY. Y’all betta TWERK.

Clip recap: "In this edition of No More Mr. Nice Gay, Guy explains why he isn't going to see the film adaption of Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game. Mr. Card, Guy knows you're homophobic, but he's not boycotting to kill profits; he's doing it for good, old self-respect."

My sister, Ebony, reminded me the other day of yet another interesting situation she found herself in while traveling with us—- as the presumed mother of our child.

We were all on a flight to New Orleans.  Jamie (tall Daddy) who has accrued far more points than me on all his business travel (humph), got an upgrade- so he took it (fine with me, he’s 6’5 and needs the legroom).  Myself, our baby Matteo, and Ebony, sat in economy and about three-quarters through the flight, she decided to order a Bloody Mary. The flight attendant came down the aisle with the delicious bloody mary mix and two mini bottles of Finlandia Vodka (generous), smiled and walked off. About the same time, I got up to go to the restroom, and so Ebony was now sitting alone with baby Matteo, and simultaneously pouring her vodka.  Why should she- the only non parent—- not enjoy a little adult beverage service as she made her way down through 24k feet on the descent into the Big Easy.  

As Ebony’s just getting comfortable, Matteo in one arm, mini vodkas drained and placed aside nicely, Blood Mary stirred as best as possible with that little black straw, she lifts the cup to her lips, sighs, and Bam!——— There it is.  In the aisle across from her sits an older woman, staring at her in Disbelief and Contempt.  Old lady in 22C’s face said it all.  How could this mom be drinking in one hand while holding her baby in another?  Did she really empty BOTH of those bottles of vodka?   The baby’s obviously only 7 months old—- he’s clearly breastfeeding! She shouldn’t even be drinking while he’s still breastfeeding while they are traveling!  What is wrong with this woman?  

And yet as spun up as this woman gets, she has no idea that — that’s not Ebony’s baby at all.  She’s allowed to be the alcoholic Aunt if she wants to.  (she’s not an alcoholic at all by the way, I just get a rise out of writing it, though alcoholism is no joke;) Gay Dads are both on the plane—- just one is in the bathroom and one is in first class lounging about.  But this woman assumes, and assumes incorrectly.  And she’ll never know. 

I have written about my sisters plight before—- and perhaps the plight of all Sisters-of-Gay-Brothers-Who-Have-Babies.  Should they be a protected class these SOGBWHB’s?  These sisters find themselves to be the presumed mothers of the GayBees & are judged when they are drinking, can’t open the stroller, can’t remove the packaging on the Enfamil bottle, don’t know how to put the carseat in, and are checking their phone while dragging the bottom of the diaper bag along the ground.  

Never assume. 

To the SOGBWHB’s —We feel for you.  We’re here for you. 

Dialogue? In my rabbit brawler? Overgrowth's latest alpha update vid details the new dialogue system prototype, which shows what creating new levels and scenarios will look like once the game is out. Lots of technical stuff, but there's a little bit of rabbits beating each other to pulp for all to enjoy.
