it's about equality


san fran and cali have ok'ed gay marriage. now ny is going to recognize gay marriages origniating in other states. this is awesome! i understand the opposition to gay marriage--its the lunacy that drives most decisions in this country. it's religion, social hierarchy and other silly things that have zero to do with two people loving eachother. my personal favorite explanation is, "it's not natural." lmfao. well, here is what nature tells us:

-most higher-order primates engage in homosexual sex. most also are not monogomous or pair-bonded

-recent genetic studies found that switiching genes that code the brain for sexual orientation will flip the sexual orientation of the worm

so, the nature argument is dispelled. there are a sleu of arguments, but the reality is xenophobia. we fear what is different than us. bottom line. but, that is no excuse for denying two people who love eachother the same legal and status-based privileges that we all are afforded. and while my community may be one of the main communities holding gay marriage back, i refuse to partake. their rights are my rights. as henrich heine once said, "where they start by burning books, they'll end by burning people." meaning gay marriage is not a threat to the state and is in no way universally immoral. the immorality is only the subjective views of a sector of people influenced by their own xenophobia. that is hardly reason to trample on a whole group of people's rights!

daydreams

i have recently hit a road-block in my 10-year plan. it's been hard trying to embody the angst i feel. then, i remembered marty mcconnell!



it's often said that wise men learn from other men's mistakes. in that vein, it's hard to abandon my dreams, but at the same time my intellect reminds me daily how unrealisitc they are. i can't say it as elegantly as mcconnell, "we are a generation of screamers, silenced by this consipracy of comfort that cradles us voiceless in our PC cities." church!

it is a title

yes. this is a proper title. why? because of the blog squatters, who took all of the clever, all-world-knowledge-encompassing names; like, life is hard, found my wings, blah blah blah...

what the hell is the point of that anyway. you are squatting on blogspot urls? that's tacky. internet tacky. at least go to godaddy and pay the 10 bucks and squat on something that might actually get some decent traffic. no. you squat on blogspot. smh. geniuses. as if google couldn't remove all of you if they really wanted to. it's really the embodiment of who we have beome as a species. it's not good enough for just some of us to be leeches looking for the come-up. all of us have to be now. at this point i am just rambling...
