Whoa.
Obama to call for 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' repeal, adviser says
If so, about fucking time.
Zoe: Planet's coming up a mite fast. Wash: That's just cause, I'm going down too quick. Likely crash and kill us all. Mal: Well, that happens, let me know.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Easy now. Remember that "don't ask, don't tell" was very much a step in the right direction, because witchhunts were very common at the time.

I mean in regards to Obama, who promised it on the campaign trail and then irritated much of the gay and lesbian community (from what I understand) by seeming to backpedal.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Yeah, "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" lost a lot in execution, but the original intent was actually pretty good.
It was the insane over-reaching and rapidly expanding definition of what was considered "telling" that was problematic.

In an example of how yogis have adopted the language and ideology of foodies, Mr. Kest calls himself a “selectarian,” one who chooses everything he eats.
As opposed to the rest of us who just reach out blindly and eat whatever we wind up grabbing?
NEVER do this in the bathroom.

Dana, I'm just sensitive b/c I was dating a female soldier around that time and heard a lot of horror stories about people lurking in gay bars and such to find out homosexuals. I personally feel like people are not being patient enough with Obama, given that it's only been a year. I understand that for gays in the military it feels very urgent.

And the economy was imploding and there were dire hints of breadlines etc. Which ticking timebomb do you defuse first?

Look, *I* don't have my goddamn pony that poops rainbows yet, and that is clearly SO much more important than "universal" "health care". Duh.

One that I kind of ashamedly love. But I tell myself that since the general sort of people featured on there are the ones that roll their eyes and make pissy comments about Goths in general (as in "o.m.g., you are still a goth? Whaaaat-ever" ), AND tend to be the type to point and laugh at my wardrobe, I'm justified in giggling at LATFH.
