Today's Mighty Oak

I’m going to do my best swan dive into shark infested waters



Alright, let’s see what we have today.  I’m a (not so) closet transit nerd, and PAT released this awesome blog post about how each route got its number. I knew about the colors, but the numbers were always a bit confusing, but it’s really fascinating to read.

One of the Sabres’ goalies has a pride flag on his helmet (airbrushed, of course), and it’s a cool story that spawned from Pride Tape.

And speaking of goalies:

Supposedly, this song will put you to sleep in under eight minutes.  I don’t know if I buy that, I’ll have to test it out.

There is a cute rap about the Hufflepuff House.

The queer community has a lot to fear over the next four (hopefully only two if we can win back the Senate) years.  For those not sure why we’re so afraid, here are eight threats, and in true clickbait form: you won’t believe number 8. No really, yo won’t, it’s unconstitutional, the scariest, but a high priority of Republicans and the President-elect.

But in good news, Pittsburgh has signed into a law a ban on anti-gay torture on minors.

The world’s largest musical instrument, an organ made of stalactites.

Would you like to make Eggs Woodhouse from Archer?  Probably yes.  But don’t try to eat them:

Sassy political buttons from years’ past.  I especially love the “not tonight dear, it’s a felony” one.

The NRA chants that the only thing that can stop a bad person with a gun is a good person with a gun. But what about good people with dildos?  Better add that to the list.

And in a report that really, should not surprise anyone, members of the queer community suffer from higher rates of mental illness (depression, anxiety and PTSD) due to having to remain closeted, political pressure and dealing with harassment.

This was plugged during New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, and it looks amazing:

That’s it for now, but I’ll be back with more soon!
