comickal: apparently, this is international "let's think about religion" day, or something

For those of you who once followed DeGrassi: The Next Generation: Adamo Ruggiero (Marco) comes out. (A video interview, not a comic.)

OVERCOMPENSATING: This explains SO MUCH! How could we not have known this before?

Yes, this IS terribly unfair.

You know ... I don't think he likes Hillary Clinton. Not even a little. Though I would like to know where the evidence is for the stuff he accuses her of. Especially the frequent urination. How would he know? (...Nope. Really REALLY doesn't like her.)

Yes, cats are really like this.

If only I had thought of this that summer I babysat three two-year-olds... (All at once, yes. To be fair, I was helping my cousin, who was the babysitter of record. Nonetheless, two teenagers are not remotely the equal of three two-year-olds, who believe in living life either at 98 billion miles per hour or comatose.) (Also, I would like to point out that they are sadly mistaken about Switzerland. At least, history says they are. These days, who knows?)
NB: It turns out that all Keenspot comics have an RSS feed, though most people on the system don't seem to know that. They're all at sitename/comic.rss

The Mac geek ethos. Gotta love it! Really, you just gotta!

I'd go with "both", myself.

...HAIR?

Things you never expect to see referenced in a comic, part 6,578.

I would never ever sing that song. Not even for him. And I would probably terminate all dating privileges if he did. (Also, this explains a lot about the campaign season, doesn't it?)

...THAT'S enlightenment?

...Huh. I wonder if that would explain things like this...

random/comickal: ten best gay and bisexual male science fiction characters from comics and tv

Ten Best Gay and Bisexual Science Fiction Characters | AfterElton.com:

You know, I realize this list is from AfterElton and not from AfterEllen ... but seriously, guys, not one female character? Not one? REALLY? (And no, Frank-n-Furter does NOT count.) Should you not have been more specific with that article title, perhaps? And nothing from any prose novel? Perhaps you should have been MUCH more specific with that article title. (see title, above.)

That aside, the list is ... well, interesting, let's say. I wouldn't have included Andrew; I seem to recall the people at Mutant Enemy rather pointedly and coyly being surprised that anyone ever could have thought that Andrew was gay. Plus, television being what it is, if the character doesn't do or say something unambiguous, it really seems that you shouldn't put them on a list like that.

On the other hand, seeing what it is that Ianto does listed like that was very informative. Seriously, I had no clue. Though, logically, that means that Torchwood actually does need an operations manager.
