Each week queerguru takes a brief look at some of the big things that have made us smile and get a real ‘high five’ aka the ice cream emoji, and at the other end of the scale, those things that have really pissed us off and get a very big thumbs downs aka the famous ‘poop’ emoji.
This week’s include :
Whoopi Goldberg for producing a new TV show on Trans Models called Strut.
Dave Matthews Band for giving the proceeds from his shows in North Carolina to equality groups.
All The Sailors in NY’s Fleet Week because …… well, just because …..
Openly gay New York Democratic Rep. Sean Maloney for taking up the banner of LGBT rights on the House floor and having another go at getting the law passed.
