I’m proud to say I have been a die-hard Mac user since 1992. This statement from Apple makes me even prouder:
Apple is publicly opposing Proposition 8 and making a donation of $100,000 to the No on 8 campaign. Apple was among the first California companies to offer equal rights and benefits to our employees’ same-sex partners, and we strongly believe that a person’s fundamental rights — including the right to marry — should not be affected by their sexual orientation. Apple views this as a civil rights issue, rather than just a political issue, and is therefore speaking out publicly against Proposition 8.
Here is the logo that Apple used from late 1976 to early 1998. I’m thinking they should go back to it. =)
My straight friend took the Braun handheld blender to my right boob (I thought she was kidding) and proceeded to cut up my shirt. My boob and nip made it out just barely OK. She is devastated and I let her know life is too short to worry about these things. I have made her promise to come on to your site and get another shirt. Please tell me you still have some because I don’t see them listed.
Thanks a bunch,
Caroline
Caroline:
Thanks for sharing! Please tell your friend that ‘just add tools’ is not meant to be taken literally. I hope you will hide your power tools and lock the liquor cabinet the next time she comes to visit.
Yes indeed, we still offer that shirt and in celebration of you still having a complete set of boobs and nips, I have decided to offer the Butch-O-Matic shirt for $15 today only!
For the first time ever the Ad Council — on behalf of a nonprofit organization in New York called the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network, or Glsen — is introducing ads meant to tackle a social issue of concern to gays and lesbians. The campaign seeks to discourage bullying and harassment of teenagers who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender and will consist of television and radio commercials, print and outdoor ads and a dedicated web site devoted to the campaign (thinkb4youspeak.com). Some spots feature celebrities such as Hilary Duff and comedian Wanda Sykes.
A poster from the campaign:
An excerpt from the campaign’s website:
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) teens experience homophobic remarks and harassment throughout the school day, creating an atmosphere where they feel disrespected, unwanted and unsafe. Homophobic remarks such as “that’s so gay” are the most commonly heard; these slurs are often unintentional and a common part of teens’ vernacular. Most do not recognize the consequences, but the casual use of this language often carries over into more overt harassment.
This campaign aims to raise awareness about the prevalence and consequences of anti-LGBT bias and behavior in America’s schools. Ultimately, the goal is to reduce and prevent the use of homophobic language in an effort to create a more positive environment for LGBT teens. The campaign also aims to reach adults, including school personnel and parents; their support of this message is crucial to the success of efforts to change behavior.
Here at QRT we take negative homophobic slang, embrace it, and take it for our own. We have offered a “So Gay” t-shirt for quite some time. Right now you can get your very own for $18.
Just received a small shipment of our popular rainbow belts. These web belts are 55″ long and can be trimmed to desired size. Military rainbow belts ain’t easy to find so this might be the last batch. We sold out of these early last time so don’t wait!
How many times have you come home drunker than Cooter Brown and thought it would be a great idea to fire off some e-mails, only to wake up the next morning with major regrets?
If you answered “More than I care to admit …” here’s something that might be of interest to you. Google’s Gmail Labs has a new experimental featured dubbed “Mail Goggles” which will attempt to prevent your drunk ass from sending out those retarded e-mails.
It works by stopping your message when you hit send and presenting you with a series of simple math problems that must be solved before the e-mail is sent.
Now if only AT&T could come up with a version of this for text messaging …
