In honor of the weekend that was Pride (everywhere but in Atlanta), enjoy this TBSW? flashback: First of all, I lost my job as diversity coordinator at Diversity Today, the magazine for professionals in the diversity field. It was so unfair. No one’s been hit harder by this stupid recession than me! Fortunately, I’ve been [...]

The Blogosphere Says What? (Get your pride on, bitch! edition)
Sheldon Greenbriar’s Spring Blurbomat
Time for some fresh dish and ‘dat: Just got off the phone with Gregory Sierra, Julio from “Sanford and Son.” He’s organizing a boycott of Arizona. I lost interest before he could tell me why.

The Blogosphere Says Valentine’s Day
From TBSW? archive:
Well, V-Day was a total bust, but don’t worry, ya’ll, it wasn’t Rand-O’s fault. Blame it on Hallmark. I was there yesterday, looking for a card for my baby doll, and it occurred to me — there’s no same-sex Valentine’s Day cards! I was so offended I just collapsed into fetal position and [...]
