I realize it has been a while since I checked in. I just find that lately I don’t have any thing to say that isn’t a whine about my stomach, how insane the political frenzy is making me, or how depressing it is to be a responsible adult who is also a gay man.
This week marked the tenth anniversary of Matthew Shepard’s murder.
It was also National Coming Out Day.
And it was announced that the Proposition 8 religious freak goons are outspending us 2 to 1 on ads. And the ads are full of disgusting lies about the “certainty that gay marriage will be taught to first graders.”
The phrase “activist judges” makes me want to vomit. Following the letter of the law and enforcing it is not activism. Insisting that civil unions are the same as marriage and forcing your religious beliefs and purportedly superior moral code on the rest of society is activism.
I fear we will lose this battle. It does not mean losing the war, but it does mean more casualties, more money, and less time for me and my friends to get back to decorating our lush apartments, styling celebrity hair, eating newborn babies, and lusting after all those ugly bald paunchy men who draw their wives closer when they walk anywhere near a Pier One.
See, there I go on a tangent. I should not have access to the internet while high on vicodin.
That reminds me – I have a coupon for that restaurant Baby Tuesday’s for you.

You’re sick. Sick, I tell you!
Those old men wouldn’t be caught DEAD with their wives. They’re clutching their mistresses closer, thankyouverymuch.

I am amazed that prop has a chance at passing. Just amazed.
I mean, I know why, I know who’s behind it, but it just makes me ill.

Stop spreading the gay for God’s sake! Next thing you know we’ll be teaching our children to give a shit about OTHERS and their messy FEELINGS.
I’m not happy and I’d prefer if no one else were either, OK?

According to THAT commercial, churches and church property may be taxed if Prop 8 fails. Perhaps, churches and church property SHOULD be taxed if Prop 8 does win. The country, states, counties and cities would be abundantly richer. Amen.
Just butting in fron over The Pond! I taught my kids about gay marriage when they were first graders because the conversation cropped up and I wanted them to know, from an early age that love is love, no matter what.
I’m sorry you have to keep fighting.
Penelopes last blog post..Tell me if I’m boring you.
Get better soon dear, I want to share a newborn baby with you before we got out trolling for wrinkly old men to have hot butsecks with!
Chriss last blog post..Do what the hot guy says and no one gets hurt!
mmmmmmm, newborn babies! are you sure that one must be gay to wanna dine on one of them?
honestly jester, i hate that you have to deal with this shit. just doesn’t make sense to me. love is love.
in vegas for the trade show i had an interesting discussion with my VERY republican boss. he actually came out and said that he doesn’t mind one bit if two men or two women marry each other…doesn’t care if it is called a civil union or a marriage. all he wants is a republican in office for business and tax issues. and here i thought his southern self hated on the gays. guess me telling him how smoking hot this woman is or how gorgeous that woman is or how “i would do her twice on sundays” is sort of helping to desensitize him. we even had dinner last saturday with, gasp, a gay man and he had a great time! yay for growth! boooo for how long it takes.

@hello Not all Republicans are anti-gay. Just like I’m pretty sure not all Democrats are socialist retards on welfare.
I’m very republican and I’m fine with Jester and his life-choice, situation, predicament, “way he’s born” or however people want to define it. Part of the problem is how precisely people want to define it! I just don’t want special rights or extra benefits given to any group.

@whall
oh i know that not all republicans are anti-gay. hell, i am registered republican! i just meant that my boss is big time conservative and he’s finally saying that he is cool with civil unions…yay for progress.
hello haha narfs last blog post..Picking Up Strangers in Vegas
Whall – Wait…. What special rights or extra benefits are being given to gay people by allowing them to marry? Hetero couples have a special right not afforded to all people in marriage. A civil union does not offer the same benefits as marriage, on a state or federal level. It is not the same.
@Jester, sorry, my comment had nothing to do with the actual post or meant to justify being against the proposition or anything.

I think it should be taught in school since so many parents don’t teach their kids much of anything except stupidy.
