We need more Carlos, Latika, Millie, Ada, John & Mary. #SaveTheWinchesters Just think of the fun we could have with a second season!!

I was casually talking to two LGBTQIA+ teenagers (17 & 18) and I mentioned the name Matthew Shepard and they asked…Who is that? I was shocked and saddened by this. Please click the poll below honestly before searching up his name. A small snippet is waiting below the read line after you click. If you don't know Matthew's story and you have HBOMax or heck even Youtube…take some time to know him and his story.

Matthew Wayne Shepard (December 1, 1976 – October 12, 1998) was a gay American student at the University of Wyoming who was beaten, tortured, and left to die near Laramie on the night of October 6, 1998. He was taken by rescuers to Poudre Valley Hospital in Fort Collins, Colorado, where he died six days later from severe head injuries received during the attack. Suspects Aaron McKinney and Russell Henderson were arrested shortly after the attack and charged with first-degree murder following Shepard's death. Both are serving consecutive life sentences. Aaron (who had beaten Matt) was supposed to get the Death Penalty but Matthew's parents asked for him to only get life in prison. Matt's dad told Aaron at the sentencing:

"I would like nothing better than to see you die, Mr. McKinney. However, this is the time to begin the healing process. To show mercy to someone who refused to show any mercy.

"Mr. McKinney, I'm going to grant you life, as hard as it is for me to do so, because of Matthew. Every time you celebrate Christmas, a birthday or the Fourth of July, remember that Matthew isn't. Every time that you wake up in that prison cell, remember that you had the opportunity and the ability to stop your actions that night. You robbed me of something very precious, and I will never forgive you for that."

I had also heard that the character of Justin Taylor on Queer as Folk was based on Matthew. AND that the reason they gave his love interest the last name of Kinney was so that Aaron's last name would now be associated with Gay Love.

Oh, just that one time Tony Stark was trying to figure out Time Travel and nothing else worked till he tried a Mobius Strip. Perfection!

Such a powerful video! Even after 5 years it still makes me cry. May you always feel safe enough to hold that hand xoxo

I saw a picture of Loki carrying a little boy and my brain instantly saw the beginning of a family photo :P So I found the perfect image of Mobius and put them together in Gimp. Was so much fun to make! They are so damn cute together.

From the mouth of babes…well…from Dustin. (S4 E2)
