Morning Meme: "Fred" Moooves Over For Alan Ritchson, Daniel Radcliffe Puckers Up On "SNL," and George Clooney Finds Mitt Romney On "Wrong Side of History"

I know we're a little late on the Saturday Night Live critiques, but we had a bit of delay. I'm betting that NBC's Brian Williams wishes he'd delayed his critique of Lana del Rey that he put in an email to Gawker boss Nick Denton. The contents of the email are kind of hysterical in the presentation, but his NBC bosses are not pleased that Gawker published the email.

David Mixner wants us to give a thought to the plight of GLBT seniors. This is a generation that frequently gave everything to advance our rights and now have little of their own in their sunset years. They were the last generation legally prohibited from having children of their own to take care of them.

Veteran comedian Todd Glass came out as gay on the WTF with Marc Maron podcast Monday. Glass says he's been out to his family and with his partner for 15 years, but still has issues saying "I'm gay." “I have a very hard time saying that. And don’t get this wrong. I don’t want anyone to be ashamed of who they are—especially younger people. I always hated using that term and that’s partly why I’ve always been sympathetic to people who don’t [want to be labeled certain things]. I hate that word. But I like it better than the other word—homosexual.”

People says that the plot details for Skyfall were released, but honestly, it sounds a lot like any number of Bond films to me, except that Dame Judy Dench may have a bigger role.

The Supreme Court seems fairly certain that there shouldn't be nudity on public airwaves, but is completely oblivious to naked statues in the courtroom. So – "we know it when we see it obscenity" doesn't apply if you never bother looking?

Ricky Gervais claims to be fleeing angry Justin Bieber fans after joking about the pop star in his Golden Globes monologue. Frankly, I don’t' blame him – the screams of a teenage girl can turn anyone over 40 to stone.

Soccer player Lee Steele, who was fired from Oxford, has released an apology via his new team Nantwich Town FC saying "[The remarks] were made tongue in cheek at the time and Lee would like to apologise for this and any offence that this has caused and would also like to stress that he is not homophobic in any way." I see not every team is bothered by homophobic behavior.

Meanwhile German national captain Philipp Lahm thinks soccer is like "gladiatorial combat" and doesn't think the sport is ready for an out player. I tell you what, next game, I'll release a lion on the field, and if you don't squeal like a four year old and wet yourself, I'll let the comment stand.

Of course, Jon Huntsman, arguably the only sane man in the Republican primary, has dropped out, purged his campaign materials of all anti-Romney content and endorsed the former Massachusetts governor.

Wikipedia is set to go dark for 24 hours Wednesday in protest of SOPA/PIPA, joining Reddit and a host of other tech sites. I don't know how we're going to finish the crossword puzzle at work that day.

Snooki would endorse Donald Trump for president.

While we were (understandably) excited to have out lesbian contestants in Miss America's feeder races, Miss England is having a strong showing from the first transgender contestant.

Someone has calculated just how much energy the Death Star would need to blow up Earth. I didn't even know the Empire was interested in our little planet.

Glee is planning to take on the Bee Gees and disco. Ryan Murphy says that he'd love to have John Travolta on to dance with Finn in a dream sequence.

Despite a loving family, 18 year old Jeffery Fehr hung himself in his family home New Years Day. While high school was behind him, his parents feel that a lifetime of bullying over his sexuality led to depression that contributed to his suicide. Honestly, read the profile, which is an amazing picture of the young man. Frankly, I cried, because if kids who have this kind of support can't make it, I don't know what to do about the ones that don't.

While folks seem shocked that NASA studied farting astronauts extensively, I recall going to Space Camp 25 years ago and being told that early space missions had a problem with muscle cramps which was traced back to a potassium deficiency, so NASA loaded up rations with potassium, which has the effect of making farts smell worse. As teenagers we thought it was funny, but to NASA it was a real problem.

Video from Avatar: The Legend of Korra has surfaced, and I'll admit, it looks pretty awesome, maybe enough to purge that movie from my brain.
