Spread the news!

Ooohhhh my fucking god. We did it! Go S.F.!!! Now gay couples will have the opportunity to be just as miserable as the rest of us. XD (j/k.)

There's a threat by religious groups of putting a motion on the November ballot to constitutionally ban it, but I'm hoping that will get shot down. It's about time this happened.

See, I don't get the anti-gay marriage people. I'm straight therefore unlikely to marry someone of my own sex. I fail to see how a lesbian couple getting the right to marry is going to impact my life. If it's going to impact yours then maybe you should reevaluate your sexuality or who you're dating. (I mean general you of course)

Anyways, good on you California. If only the rest of the nation will follow this course.

Hey, gay people need to be allowed to be married and divorced and sued for the children's custody! XD

I know - isn't it awesome?!? I get breaking news alerts for work and I literally jumped out of my seat and ran over to my co-worker's cubicle clapping like an excited three-year-old! Of course, he's already printed out the article and had proudly displayed it outside his cube. :D

And word 'round the campfire is that the religious conservatives (many who are based out of my hometown of San Diego) have gathered enough signatures to place it back on the ballot this November...I can only hope that either A)They didn't get enough valid signatures or B)Californians get their shit together and vote. it. down!

Good for you Cali! I doubt that will ever go through in Missouri, but at least there's a precedent now. I still don't understand the opposition to it. Legal marriage is different than a religious marriage. Separation of Church and State for all, says I and the Constituion or something.

Misora, it's been ages, and we've had porn posted to zutarotica, but the community is lonely without you. It needs your special sequel-to-Absolution touch!

So here's me cheering you on, and wishing you well, and maybe just slightly begging for you to finish your fic. But mostly cheering. Woot!
