Hello hot cocoas! I hope you spent last weekend getting Valentined and dined. Even if that meant takeout, boxed wine and Netflix. Good on you and your beautiful face.

This week Texas issued its first gay marriage licenseTina Belcher rocked out with Sleater-Kinney and Mey ranked her top 15 witches.

Heather Hogan’s recap attack was in full force with The Fosters 216,  Glee 607, Pretty Little Liars 519 and some bonus lesbian wedding stories in honor of Santana and Brittany’s big day!
