Virginia Senate votes to pass gay adoption... →
Legislation allowing private adoption agencies to discriminate against gay prospective parents is on its way to Virginia’s governor, who has said he will sign it.
Virginia has just been fucking up left and right lately. I’m pretty ashamed to even live here.

One Town's War on Gay Teens →

lettersfromtitan:
1. This is very triggering about bullying and suicide. Proceed with caution.
2. This is from Rolling Stone’s Valentine’s Day issue.
3. If you are a straight person in the Glee fandom, oh god, do I want you to read every word of this.
This is horrifying, and that’s exactly why you need to read it.
I’m sitting here actually crying...

A tale from working concessions at a basketball...
Co-worker: So who are they playin'?
Me: William and Mary.
Co-worker: Who?
Me: William and Mary. It's in Williamsburg.
Co-worker: Isn't that God's name?
Me: ... What?
Co-worker: Jesus's mom was named Mary, so wasn't God's name William?
Me: Um... are you thinking of Joseph? He wasn't God.
Co-worker: Oh! I was thinkin' it was God's name, because you know they never say anything about Jesus's grandfather in the Bible... Why are you lookin' at me like that?
...
I still don't know what she meant by "Jesus's grandfather."

Ugh. So much Oppression Olympics on my dash right now. (I’m really glad I now have a phrase which effectively communicates what has annoyed me for a while.)

arqueete replied to your post: Why is this shit so difficult?
I don’t think it’s too picky to want to be with someone whose religious views don’t clash with yours, but maybe feel things out more before you totally dismiss him. You don’t know exactly what his relationship with his faith is and it might work out.
Yeah, I was definitely considering this, but I’m not sure how to bring up...

Why is this shit so difficult?
A cute boy messaged me, and so we’ve been chatting casually for a bit. He seems really nice, but I just noticed that his profile says his religion is: “Christianity and somewhat serious about it.” Is it terrible that this makes me far less interested in him? I mean, I have plenty of friends who are religious (I live in Virginia after all), but I feel like this is the kind of...

Hey, Gleeks. I’m not sure if the hacker actually has Glee scripts or not, but Kevin told me that they never share scripts over email for just this reason. (I figured that much when you think about how many times their Twitters & emails have been hacked in the past. The interwebz is not known for its security, and digital copies of Glee scripts would be spread way too easily if they were...

Have you ever been in one of those moods where everything beautiful makes you want to cry?
I foresee a glass of wine and my favorite bittersweet foreign film in the immediate future.

Tell the Senate: Push forward DOMA repeal →
House Republicans are dumping more and more money into their fight to uphold DOMA, but the Senate Judiciary Committee is pressing ahead with the Respect for Marriage Act – historic legislation that would repeal DOMA once and for all.
DOMA deprives same-sex couples of over 1,100 federal rights, benefits, and responsibilities of marriage. It’s not right, and it’s time for repeal.
HRC will...

Live: Republican candidates answer your questions... →
I have been watching the GOP debate tonight, and it’s disgusting. Everyone on that stage is an idiot, and the audience is just as terrible. Booing a gay soldier? Really? They’re risking their life to protect your ass by serving in the war you so proudly support. Then Rick Santorum claims that we need to reinstate DADT because gay people need to stop thinking that they deserve...
