Being HIV+ on Grindr isn't for the weak, because you can get a lot of negativity directed your way, as Tom Knight discovered. Fortunately, he was quick to defend himself as you can see. Buzzfeed caught up with him to discuss some of the stigma he's face online and in person, and it really hits home. The worst for Knight was when someone walked up to the group he was talking to at a bar and told them to be careful what they'd catch off of him. "Soul-destroying. That just feeds the insecurity that comes with HIV. That [insecurity] is the biggest thing that changed when I became positive: the anxiety around not knowing who knows and what they think about it. It’s a game-changer. It affects your self-esteem. My doctor wants me to try meditation to stay on the right [psychological] track, because it’s so easy to drown yourself in the negativity that’s around. I saw a story the other day from the Evening Standard and he [an HIV-positive man] was saying, “HIV isn’t a problem, it’s the attitudes around it.”"

As you may recall, North Carolina passed a law allowing magistrates and clerks to opt out of performing marriages to protect their conscience, but also said that someone had to be made available to serve in those capacities. Well, in McDowell County, all five magistrates are refusing to perform marriages so that they don't have to marry same-sex couples, which is forcing the county to import judges three days each week from a neighboring county. I can't wait to see what that costs. More wisdom from the party of smaller government.

The Oath Keepers, a heavily armed Christian militia that deployed snipers during the Bundy Ranch standoff last year have vowed to prevent U.S. Marshalls from arresting Kim Davis again, should she defy the court order and interfere with the issuance of marriage licenses.

In a Glee reunion, Mark Salling and Josh Sussman have joined Max Adler in Gods and Secrets, about a world filled with superheroes and the people who protect them.

These are actual posters you can buy from the Ted Cruz campaign store. Who thought this was a good idea?

Zack Snyder thinks that Marvel is running out of ideas, and his dark Batman v Superman will prove to have the staying power in the superhero genre, even if they begin to go the way of the Western like Steven Spielberg says. “It goes to the mythological nature of the movies that we’re making. I feel like he’s right. But I feel like Batman and Superman are transcendent of superhero movies in a way, because they’re Batman and Superman. They’re not just, like, the flavor of the week Ant-Man — not to be mean, but whatever it is. What is the next Blank-Man?”

Newly out rugby player Sam Stanley says that the sport itself has been incredibly welcoming. “What I found especially is that rugby players are a lot more open minded than I thought. I messaged a load of my college mates who I trained with and they all replied with their support. And that meant a lot to me. They’re all just team mates but you see them as quite good friends as you see a lot of them. I think the game is getting a lot better – it’s a lot better than imagined.” He also remarked on how soccer hasn't had a high profile out player. “Football stadiums – having been to games in the past – they can be hostile environments. I personally didn’t take the crowd and the fans into consideration. I just thought this is the best thing for me to do. Maybe within football, because racism is still a big thing, maybe they put homophobia on the same sort of figure – if they see a gay player that’s a great target for fans to get into them about and put them off their game.”

Remember Joe Rogan? He's got quite a lot to say about Kim Davis. He envisions an alien race coming to earth and seeing the Kim Davis rally. "There would probably be that one alien that was encouraging the others to gather more data – that they should consider the entire spectrum of human thinking before they dismiss the species as dangerously insane. Then there would be the alien that thinks like me, who says, 'Dude, they have nuclear bombs. Seriously, fuck this place. Let’s get out of here before one of these crazy assholes blows us all up because their imaginary friend told them we have the wrong underwear on or something.'”

"No blacks, no Asians, no fems" is pretty common to see online, and people defend it as just a preference. But it's not just sexual racism, it needs to be called what it is: racism. A new Australian study says that racism and sexual racism correlate so closely we need to be honest about what it is. “Sexual racism… is closely associated with generic racist attitudes, which challenges the idea of racial attraction as solely a matter of personal preference. Sexual racism, it turns out, is probably just plain old racism disguised in the language of desire."

Sean Hayes wants to produce and star in a play about Oscar Levant. “I’ve been wanting to play Oscar Levant for over 10 years and this partnership is a dream come true. I have a deep passion for this project and an enduring love for my dear Oscar.” Now he just needs that actual show.

In things that are long overdue, we have Glenn Beck calling Sarah Palin a clown. Mama Grizzly is probably going to come out swinging.

The folks at ASAP Science want to share all the positive aspects of jerking off with you, and they are legion. It's possible loving yourself can do more for you than a trip to the gym, and you'll only have to wash one sock.

Jake Miller penned this song to what I'm assuming is his best friend, who committed suicide. If you watch it, I'm not responsible for you crying at the office.

In other musical selections, we have John Grant featuring Tracy Thorn singing "Disappointing," and the video was filmed in a bathhouse. His voice is stunning, but while the men are beautiful, no bathhouse I've ever been to was quite like this. Possibly NSFW due to a couple of bare butts.

Finally, we're going to wrap it up with Tom Daley dropping by BBC One to play Innuendo Bingo, and Tom is going to wish that he brought a change of clothes, because he ends up soaking wet when he's unable to contain himself over seemingly innocent comments people have made on television. What's fun about this, beyond the fact that he wore a white t-shirt is that they used his own innuendo against him.
