Here’s a little bit of fun Internet fury for a slow news day. A feud is brewing between gay news blogger Andy Towle and Christian cartoonist Joe King over a 2012 wall calendar of King’s gay-themed cartoons entitled “I’m Not Gay, I’m Just A Sissy.” The calendar’s cover features a big cover, a drawing of King done up like a “sissy,” and promises “12 Months of Sexual Confusion: (Not that there’s anything wrong with that!).” 19-year-old Seinfeld references aside, after Towle brought attention to the product on his popular blog Towleroad, readers noticed that one of the months featured the caption “WE ALL HAVE AIDS!” and began petitioning sites like Amazon and Barnes & Noble to stop selling it. King got furious and began angrily writing on his Facebook wall and…well, you can guess where a story like this is going.

There was a time that the word “fag” probably wouldn’t cause much of a stir. But Vanity Fair contributor Brett Berk has found himself in the middle of a weekend firestorm after dropping the f-bomb in a column about the recent episode of Glee in his Gay Guide to Glee on VF’s website.

With Don’t Ask Don’t Tell dead for all intense and purposes, we might as well all talk about things that don’t make it seem like we’re still in a previous decade. However, Nicholas Ballasy, a reporter for conservative CNS News recently managed to catch up with Rep. Barney Frank to ask about the “implications” of the repeal, namely, whether or not army showers are gonna get all gay and stuff. While Frank initially bristled at the question, he gave the guy the benefit of the doubt and turned the questioning around, making for an interesting little interview.

Andrés Duque–known to his Twitter and blog followers as Blabbeando–knew he was probably tweeting too much about the gay marriage vote in Argentina when Twitter cut him after only about three hours of translating the debate in the Argentina Senate.

For David Badash, a Bilerico Project post about a website featuring Mormon guys masturbating was the final straw. The New York blogger at the The New Civil Rights Movement announced quite publicly recently that he was no longer going to write for the brainy, activist blog that is the Huffington Post of the LGBT blog world.

Gay rights activist and enlisted soldier (still, though maybe not for long) Lt. Dan Choi attended a Human Rights Campaign-sponsored protest today during what was supposed to be a peaceful protest against the military’s Don’t Ask Don’t Tell Policy. Exasperated by the protesters’ attitude, apparently, Lt. Choi and fellow soldier Capt. Jim Pietrangelo chained themselves to the fence of the White House.

Is it gay-baiting to call the head of the government agency responsible for surveillance and airport screening “Big Sis”? It is–according to Huffington Post’s Eat The Press Columnist Jason Linkins and Towleroad’s Andy Towle–when you are referring to the never-married Janet Napolitano and you reference Matt Drudge.

Here’s a trick, for those of you flying on those quaint old-fashioned airlines that still don’t have wifi: Make sure your Tweetdeck is locked and loaded with all sorts of juice before you get on a plane, and then spend the next hour or so catching up with the 140-character brilliance of those you follow. That’s what I did this morning as I flew back home from Toronto (and boy are my arms tired! Wa-wa) – and as I found myself making mental notes to retweet a few when on the ground, I thought, why not a group retweet?
