• The Canadian government says “Screw You” to married gays - Seriously dudes, the last thing equality (and your legacy) needs is an international, gay “Dred Scott” decision. Oh, you’re fixing it? You’re fucking with people’s rights. Not privileges, rights.[Looks like Canada “fixed” it , but why can something like this even happen? Oh, I know: hate + apathy.]
• There’s this Women in Secularism conference happening in May . I can’t make it, but you should go if you can.
  • Unquestioned Privilege is a great post about rudeness and microaggression over on Skepchick.
  • The skepchicks are also using delicious cookies to fight hate . And if you’re a vegan, I have some good news for you .
  • The Libertarian candidate for president wants to fight homophobia…with racism . I don’t expect much from Libertarians, but still.
  • Women ask for promotions and raises as often as men . Still don’t get them as often, or for as much. I wonder why?
