I've found that if I really want to remember something I write it down multiple times, I have always just associated with a muscle memory of sorts. My hand gets used to writing the information and I am more able to spout it back out.

I don't want Atticus to feel ignored because he's certainly a handsome, dignified boy, but Elsa has got this amazing, exuberant/psychotic/adorable thing going on and it needs to be recognized.

Atticus the Siberian Husky HATES HATES baths. Our new Great Dane/Siberian husky puppy, Elsa, is okay with it. She's also more open into goin into the pool, while Atticus will not dare go near it. However, he loves his baby pool. They are like night and day.

Oh it's possible to love someone deeply and yet still divorce.

I think it's sad that people who publicize their relationships for noble reasons (like furthering human rights) have to deal with the same public scrutiny when those relationships end as people who publicize their relationships for less noble reasons (like attention.) Hope that grammatical disaster of a sentence made…

Fuck off, troll. You have been littering this article with claims that they weren't married and didn't love each other because you are a hateful homophobe. So move back under your bridge and leave the rest of us in peace.

C'mon. Tell me you don't assume your five year relationship is an indicator of anyone else's, be it five years or twenty five. Please.

Yes, your post does seem to be seeking attention. I'll stop giving it to you now.

Oh? So people never get ill, never develop/recover from addictions, never lose loved ones, never face financial or other stressors? Or never have anything happen that you just can't plan for? Congratulations on your charmed life. I sincerely hope it continues to be so, but being lucky is not the same as being…

That's nice. Check back in another 20, when your relationship has lasted as long as this one did.

These were grown adults. If we were looking at the relationship of two people of different racial heritages in South Africa who had a similar problem with legal recognition under apartheid, but their story was otherwise the same — committed, stuck to it for more than a quarter of a century, added legal recognition…

I'm glad you got lucky, but assuming everyone naturally is perfectly anal retentively neat, compulsive about eating habits and exercise, everyone shares the same attitudes about how to spend/save money, if they want kids, how to raise said kids they they want them, what kind of music to play, if they're a…

They were together and committed to each other for a quarter century. You've been commenting here for less than 24 hours, so obviously you win.

Don't be like that. If they considered themselves married in 1988 and made a ceremonial commitment to each other and honoured it for 25+ years, and the only barrier was unjust laws, I think it's right to call it a marriage.

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you know that it takes more than just love to be in a successful long-term relationship.

Once again proving, gay marriage is just like straight marriage. Some last forever, some don't.

Countdown to comments in the conservative media such as "see, I told you so" . . . in 3. . . 2. . .

I finally saw Wes Anderson's GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL today and just had to marvel at how every single shot is so meticulously composed. He makes these movies where almost NO shot is a throwaway. You can almost take any frame of film and hang it up on the wall as this perfect picture.

That seems petty, so it seems like something a professor would do.

I feel vindicated. I never took notes and it drove my teachers and, later, my professors crazy. I just can't write as fast as they'd talk and I'd get anxious I was missing stuff so I'd end up with pages in illegible glyphs instead of anything resembling actual written words. Instead, I just listened. Every single…
