This Is Not A Democracy

Ah, how this reminds me of Saturday Coffee, years ago...

I so wish this was real.

Although, Alan did say it was on his list of 2009 releases, so maybe someone's doing one...

Stolen from shippygem:



New fandom in 3...2...

This is from Perez Hilton - a huge list of videos from people across America and the rest of the world protesting Prop 8:

( LOADS of videos )

Pretty fucking awesome.

I actually applauded at the end of this:



I think the thing that blows me away about the No on Prop 8 movement, is how so many people who are not directly affected by it - who are heterosexual, married, have kids of their own or are from outside of the US anyway - really are throwing their weight behind it. People are speaking out and putting their names up there (along with their cash) in support of something that has the potential to harm their public standing in order to fight for equality for other people.

That blows my mind. It's amazing. It restores some faith in humanity.

I find myself so proud of the people I look up to and the musicians and artists that I like, for stepping up to the plate and making statements or doing what they can to speak out on equality, on human rights and on basic decency toward our fellow human beings. For literally putting their money where their mouths are, in support of other people.

If nothing else, this situation has really shown that the world is changing. 2008 has largely been a shitty year, but in a socio-political sense, it has been an amazing year. I hope that the next 48 hours really do see something enormous coming to fruition.

It's time for Change, people, and I kind of feel like it's already rolling.

I thought:

DO NOT WATCH THIS WITH ANYTHING IN YOUR MOUTH:

There are few things more wrong in the world, than how much you will laugh at this video:

There is something so creepy about this video.
