There is less than a week until the Supreme Court Prop 8 and "Defense of Marriage" hearings. Have you made plans to attend the nearest "United for Marriage" rally in support of marriage equality and repealing the laws that have winded their way up to SCOTUS?

We already know the National Organization for Marriage and Westboro will be there. Will you?

Demonstrations are now being organized to show support for marriage, with events popping up on Facebook and others being set up across the country by Get Equal, Marriage Equality USA and Equality Beyond Gender. Head to the March 4 Marriage Facebook page or Light The Way for more information. See you there!

Having reached an unfortunate dead end investigating a horrific New Year's Eve anti-gay attack in Santa Barbara, California, police have decided to release audio of the crime in an attempt to gain more leads. 

"What's Queer, Anyway? A Campaign To End Ignorance" has released a new video that should be used by the Malaysian government to describe homosexuality to its citizens. While we look for an ice skating rink in hell as we wait for that to happen, follow the jump to check out the new campaign's debut video. 

Well, folks, today's the day that LGBT activists and the anti-gay movement have all been equally excited about: Chick-fil-A "Kiss In" Day! Hordes of beautiful homosezzuals are headed to the nearest Chick-fil-A as I type to lip-lock at lunchtime in a sign of protest against the fast-food/hate group. 

But is it really our best tactic?

Making an impact locally and nationally is a cinch thanks to the numerous LGBT groups that serve the United States. But when it comes to helping out our fellow LGBT living in some of the most hostile parts of the world, it's not always clear where we can turn to lend our helping hands. 

That's all about to change thanks to the U.S. Department of State's new text donation campaign, the mGive International Response Equality Fund.

As homophobic activists announce they have gathered enough signatures to put the marriage rights of a minority group up for a vote by the majority in Washington, the gay and gay-friendly blogosphere has launched a moneybomb to raise money for those fighting for love in the state. 

North Carolina Pastor Charles L. Worley—who gave us one of our biggest (and most appalling) stories in the past month—will be the subject of a major protest after calling for the death of LGBT people by way of concentration-like camp. 

Voters in North Carolina will head to the ballot on May 8 and decide if they want a constitutional amendment banning marriage equality passed in the state. With the countdown clock furiously ticking away to D-Day, a moneybomb has been launched by the Coalition to Protect ALL NC Families in an effort to draw opposition to the vehemently gay Amendment One. 

With the GOP primary now out of the New Hampshire spotlight, this Republican Marine has turned the Granite State focus back onto the fight to keep marriage equality on the books. With the help of HRC, Craig Stowell shares his fight for his gay brother's right to marry the one he loves in a heart-warming video and a Change.org petition. Details follow.

We like a happy ending! No, not that kind. Okay, that kind, too. Our friends at GLAAD tell us the calendar is no longer available on Barnes & Noble's website, and a spokesperson for the company told GLAAD that it was never available in stores.
