Supermarket 2.0

Found by jrtom, it's Supermarket 2.0 (in the style of Web 2.0).

I loved "people who buy red wine, cereal, and chocolate also buy..."

Um, and if you don't get Web 2.0, um... I'm only starting to get it myself... Um, wikipedia it?

So I hear it's poetry month.

Q of the Day

What is the most anti-LGBT encounter/interaction you’ve ever had?

Whether you're straight, gay, ally, queer, heteronormative, whatever, I'm curious what you've experienced. You're [always] welcome to do it anonymously if you don't want your name on it.

I haven't experienced/witnessed any physical violence. Besides being glad it hasn't happened, I'm glad for my own safety. I really hate anger in other people, and I can't stand losing my temper, and what makes me do it is biases against my people. I may not be LGBT myself, but I'm an ally and I've enough peeps who are that it would make me snap.

Students of mine use "that's so gay" all the time, and I usually make it a point to comment that it's not appropriate to say things like that, use the term in that manner, just like I would if someone used the N-word in my class, or if they called someone girly. Worst is when I had a coworker tell me when I was arguing for LGBT rights that we had more important issues to be fighting for. The individual in question is heteronormative rather than outright heterosexist I believe. It's frustrating. Blinders for their specific bias/diversity issues.
