bloodyrosemccoy | And Now For Something Completely Different

I coulda swore I made this Fuck You, California! post, but I apparently didn’t actually post it. So here it is now: FUCK YOU, CALIFORNIA.

And you, ARIZONA.

Also you, FLORIDA.

ETA: And we can't forget ARKANSAS.

Still got some work to do, I see. Someday we’ll look back on this and wonder how we ever could have even argued about this shit. I myself don’t understand what the big deal is about marriage—I see it as a strategy for social regulation, and that people get so up-in-arms about how it should be shows that they really don’t understand the big picture. But that we allow some people this and not others for no good reason is terrible.

I would also like to apologize for my state, without whose support Prop 8 would have had a harder time passing. You would think a state founded by people who wanted to try unconventional marriage, a state where many are still sympathetic to people who practice institutionalized incest and statutory rape, would have the grace to shut the hell up. Sorry. I will give Utah a stern talking-to.

We’ll make it. This is a setback, but we’ll make it, dammit.
