The Reading List: Frank Ocean performs, Archie is a Gleek and more

Here’s some of the most interesting news and culture tidbits that have popped up recently.

– Last week, musician/singer/songwriter Frank Ocean came out on his Tumblr feed. He recently performed live on television for the first time, on Jimmy Fallon, alongside The Roots and a string section. Gawker put it up this morning.

– Also at Gawker, a blog post about the recent fan pages in support of Luka Magnotta. Ew.

– Can’t get enough Glee? Read a comic. Archie meets Glee. (Via CBC)

-Carleton University keeps its ban on blood collection in student-run spaces. Why? Because of Canadian Blood Services’ stance on blood donations by men who have sex with men. (Via CBC)

– The Aikiu, a Paris band, plays with gay porn in their latest video. Vaguely SFW. (It also reminds me of the cult of Japanese “stylish gay wrestling.”)

– And finally, if you haven’t seen this recent viral vid, you should. Imagine Superheroes as The Golden Girls. My fave is Slutty Superman.
