Today's Mighty Oak

“Forget the books….Check out your librarian”



Let’s see what we have today.  First up, seals are just dog mermaids:

The Penguins season may be over, but the NHL is still awesome: every team has a player who has spoken out in favor of LGBT rights.

In less than a year since Windsor, every single state will have marriage equality or their ban will be challenge. North Dakota completes the sweep.

A porn website gave America wood…by planting trees in honor of Arbor Day.  Well done.

More snark: remember, the Russian Orthodox Church hates gays.  But men in dresses, that’s okay.

When straight guys are exposed to Grindr:

An awesome comic from Surviving the World. Points if you get the reference!

Joe the Plumber is an idiot and an insensitive asshole. Seriously.

And so is Adam Carolla. Sorry my existence is so troubling to you.

Okay, last asshole of the day: this college that removed every single copy of the student newspaper rather than let an article run that described how hard it is to be gay on their campus.

Check out the trailer for “Internet Machine” which details the actual infrastructure that makes the web.

This however, looks even better:

This is interesting and confusing. The brains of gay men who adopt through surrogacy rewire themselves to exhibit traits of both moms and dads.

The Rams, who drafted the first openly gay player (Michael Sam), also drafted the first African American player.

This, by the way, is how to talk to kids about Michael Sam:

The backlash was swift, but these kinds of things are very legal.

Janet Mock flips the table.  Which is awesome.  An Australian diver does something similar, also awesome!

A story with a happy ending, I mean, as much as it can be, with a burial.

What an amazing, five-year joke.

Ummm, I’m not sure what to make of the “exclusive” social networking app, only available in chain restaurants.

So this is available in grocery stores.

Here is John Oliver explaining Eurovision for those who don’t know about it:

And here’s the winning performance.  It starts off slow, but finishes amazing!

Okay, that’s it for now, have a great one!
