Cold Star

Part music video, part short film, Cold Star has to be one of the most moving things I've seen recently. It brings a message of acceptance and understanding, as a young man not only battles bullies, but struggles to accept his sexuality. While the video is longish, it's so worth it to see the ending.

OK Go and The Muppets

OK Go and the Muppets...in one video???? I think I've died and gone to heaven.

7 CDO BTY-Don't Stop Believing

The guys from the 7 CDO BTY, who are stationed in Afghanistan, made up this delightful lip dub to Glee's Don't Stop Believing. The only thing missing are some great Mike Chang dance moves. I can't wait until all the soldiers are home, then we can sing along with them.

Outlaws of Love-Adam Lambert

I just caught this video of Adam Lambert's new single, Outlaws of Love and I have to say it's amazing. Written for all those who have felt they aren't accepted for who they are, the ballad is both touching and beautiful. On a side note, I really do love his hair. It kind of reminds me of the style Chance has in the upcoming Lost Shifter book, Chance's Vindication.

Civil Unions vs Marriage Rights

I wanted to thank everyone for the wonderful messages and emails they sent me regarding Cody. While he's out of the hospital, he's still in a fair amount of pain, so I've been really tied up taking care of him. I haven't been able to get on my computer too much, but every time I do manage to get on my email, I'm greeted by a new "get well" message. I think I have some of the best readers and friends in the world and I love you all.

I did manage to find a new video, however, and while it's older it still has a very powerful message. Many people seem to under the misguided notion that Civil Unions and Marriage are the same things, which could not be farther from the truth. Civil Unions don't carry nearly the same amounts of rights that legal marriages do and don't even get me started on DOMA. I think think this funny, yet insightful song by Julie Goldman points out some of those differences perfectly.

A day at the races

Since I needed a good laugh, I thought I would share a video that's both funny and cute.

Not all chicken sandwiches believe in equal rights

Bryan Safi does it again! This time he takes on Chick-fil-A and their support of organizations who are against gay marriage. While there aren't too many Chick-fil-A restaurants in my area, I did used to eat there whenever I visited my sister in Atlanta. Sure their chicken may be great, but not when it's dosed with a bitter helping of anti-gay rhetoric. So they can keep their sandwiches and waffle fries, because I'll never eat there again. 

Just Because

This was too funny not to share. I'll give ten bucks to anyone who does this at the Vampire Ball at RT.

Fellabone-The Cheeto Girls

I found this a couple weeks ago and am just now getting around to posting it. If you've already seen it somewhere else, forgive the repeat. If this is new to you, though, I hope you enjoy it.This video features a live performance of the Cheeto Girls. They're singing their parody of Telephone and it's a hoot. For more information on the Cheeto Girls check out their YouTube Channel.

Too Sweet!

I saw this over at the GayTwoGether blog and instantly fell in video love. It's full of oh-so-sweet cookie kisses, even better it's set to the song Somewhere Over the Rainbow. The perfect distraction for a cold, snowy day. I must go now, so I can watch it again.

You have to see this to believe it

Can a homeless man, two Kermit puppets and David Bowie's "Under Pressure" be entertaining? Hells yes!

Funny and True!

OMG! Cuteness!

The official video for Ok Go's "White Knuckles". This has to be one of the funniest and cutest videos I've seen in a while.

Watch out for the invisible ball!

Is it wrong that I've watched this twenty times already? Is it even more wrong that I laughed until I cried each time?

So funny and sooooo NSFW!

Riki "Garfunkel" Lindhome and Kate "Oates" Micucci rap about the mystery of how to give a  proper HJ. My favorite part is where they say "it" looks like a Darth Vader Pez Dispenser.

Too cool!

French-Swiss artist Guillaume Reymond uses people, cinema seats and a whole lot of time to recreate Pac-Man. This is his fifth such video. He's paid homage  to Pong, Tetris, Pole Position and Space Invaders To see more visit his website. 

NSFW-Ryan James Yezak's New Video

Ryan James Yezak, who earlier this summer posted the YouTube video "California Gays" pays homage to  Katy Perry yet again with his new video "Peacock". It's very obvious that he's upped the ante with this one, too. Not only has he increased the production value, but he's also driven up the "wow" factor. For more on Ryan, check out his interview at Advocate.com.

OMG!

I stumbled across a Movie Montage Video that is the best! Not only does it have clips from over forty movies, but everyone is dancing in them! I managed to pick out clips from Airplane!, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Dirty Dancing, Pulp Fiction, West Side Story and many, many more. Even if you don't get into dance, it's worth a watch. If for nothing else, so you can take a trip down memory lane.

Words-by Will Hoffman and Daniel Mercadante

A fantastic piece of visual poetry that you should all watch. Don't ask me why, but it brought a tear to my eye.
