Unsolicited advice: Savor the moment. There’s always more to do. We’re nowhere near the finish line. But if you don’t celebrate the victories, you run out of energy for the fight.
Jill Biden tweeted that Joe Biden is running around the office with a gay pride flag worn as a cape. I so want pictures of that
My grandmother sent out the most amazing email just gushing about how happy she was that the U.S. got it right this week and upheld Obamacare AND NOW EVERYONE IS EXTENDED MARRIAGE EQUALITY (Caps emphasis hers.) She sent this email to EVERYONE she knows. I’ve never been prouder to be her granddaughter. She’s awesome.
WHEN YOU GIVE RIGHTS TO THE MINORITY YOU TAKE RIGHTS AWAY FROM THE MAJORITY
Two back-to-back posts on my daughter’s Twitter: “I highly encourage you to search “moving to Canada” on Twitter for some serious entertainment.” (People are posting that they’re moving to Canada due to the SCOTUS ruling.) Her next post: “I wonder when they’ll realize that same-sex marriage has been legal in Canada…
Are you kidding it? I’m LOVING it. Fox News comments right now are more fun pages full of captioned cats. Look at some of these gems!

My parents have been eagerly waiting to see how gay marriage was going to “destroy” their straight marriage. I guarantee you they’re sitting at the breakfast table, drinking their coffee right now, having this conversation:
Slaves did not lose their dignity because the government allowed them to be enslaved. My employees did not lose their dignity because I kept trying to show them my dick and putting my pubic hairs on their drinks.

Dear People who are angry at this,
Stay safe out there during Pride Weekend, LGBT bros. Just because you CAN get quickie married in Las Vegas now doesn’t mean you should.
Uff, this is such a terribly condescending article. As an Indian urban woman from a city, I find her tone patronising to say the least. I have no desire to defend the deep patriarchal mindset that most Indian men, and several women, in my country swear by - but c’mon, this is ridiculous. She goes to a semi-urban part…
Oh my god, I would have DIED. I mean I probably would have literally died. I was an easily terrified kid. I ran out of the theater (not just the specific movie theater, but the ENTIRE theater building and into the parking lot!) during a screening of... An American Tail. I mean there was a cat that was kind of scary!…
How you doin’? Wanna climb inside my time machine?
