“If you can’t love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?” - RuPaul - - - - - - - - - - - “if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.” - John F. Kennedy - - - - - - - - - - - - “Imagine finding someone you love more than anything in the world, who you would risk your life for but couldn’t marry. And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Nerd Guide To New York City

New York City is one of the most vibrant and interesting cities in the world. As it is, tourists need more than a week to check off all the “must-see” sights, but the list just got longer (especially if you’re a super nerd).

An enormous nerdy collaboration over at BuzzFeed has resulted in this super cool NYC tourist map for movie-, comic-, television- and book-nerds that was headed by BuzzFeed member, Jack Shepherd.

Who cares about visiting the MOMA when you now know where to go to check out the GhostBusters original Headquarters! And why would you waste your time in a lineup to see the view from the top of the Empire State building when you can visit Dock Ocks of Spider Man 2′s Laboratory. It’s about time tourists got their priorities straight…thanks BuzzFeed nerds. We love you.

Suddenly, I want to take a trip to New York. These fictional/historical places just seem so amazing not to miss. Ellis Island what?
