For *federal* purposes. If you move to a state that does not recognize your marriage, it still won't.
OK, thanks. Hmm.
Damn, y'all, I woke up early to exercise before it got too hot, but I am GLUED to the laptop.
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

Jilli: Dammit, Anne Rice. You make it difficult to be a fan of your bombastic vampire books.
Cass: I honestly pretend that she doesn't exist as a person. She wrote the earlier books, then something started taking over her brain in the later ones so they are kinda Anne Rice books but also not really and now what I think of as "Anne Rice" is gone. There are only the books. Primarily the early ones or ones that have David Talbot.
So... like V.C. Andrews?

Google "gay marriage", it made me smile.

It works if you just google "gay," too.

Very good news to wake up to, both the Texas filibuster ending successfully despite shenanigans and the DOMA decision. Bunches of people I know are going to be benefited by the last, and I have a significant number of TX friends who have valid reason to be proud of their state.
Not so sure about the Australian news: is that good or bad?

DOMA is unconstitutional as a deprivation of the equal liberty of persons that is protected by the Fifth Amendment.
Oh, hell yeah!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm happy about it, though I doubt it'll make much difference - I still expect the government to be emphatically voted out at our next election (currently scheduled for September, though it might be earlier now). It might, however, avoid a rout and leave us with a possibly functional opposition.

I've got to say the SCOTUS has been giving me whiplash with their decisions lately.

I googled "gay". What's supposed to happen?
