I need to stay off One Direction blogs. I just woke up from a very sexy (but now disappointing) dream
I don’t want to get out of bed. I should be half ready for work already.

Whenever I hear people talk about how simply awful it is that we gays can’t legally marry in this country, I think of stories like this. Perspectives, people. Let’s get some of that, yeah?
Congress’ approval rating is hovering around 10%.
“You’d have to go back to the 1850s to find a period of congressional dysfunction like the one we’re in today,” - Some smart guy who knows about these things.
Heartbreaking Tearjerker of the Day: Ed Watson wanted nothing more than to marry his loving, loyal partner of 40 years, Derence Kernek, before succumbing to his rapidly progressing Alzheimer’s.
Back in March, the couple, with the help of the Courage Campaign, released a video plea asking for assistance in convincing the 9th Circuit Court to lift California’s ban on same-sex marriage until a decision on the constitutionality of Proposition 8 was reached.
The court ignored their plea, and, sadly, Ed passed away today, never knowing the joy of marrying his significant other.
“It’s ironic that he died on the eve of appeals about peripheral issues around a case that should have been settled more than a year ago,” said Courage Campaign founder and chairman Richard Jacobs. “None of this will matter to Ed or Derence.”
The LA Times notes that, in addition to depriving the couple of Ed’s dying wish, the ban also prevented him from being covered by his partner’s out-of-state retirement plan, which led to financial hardships.
As a testament to that, Derence could not be reached for comment as their phone had recently been disconnected.
As the bus approached downtown, he said, a middle-aged White woman approached the bus driver to complain about the two. The driver allegedly got up and told Buchanan and Hughes that someone had complained about them and that they needed to get off his bus.
“He was really in my face,” said Buchanan. “He said ‘you bitches need to get off the bus…I can’t stand fags.’”
Well now, looks like the CTA is going to have a lot of shit to deal with soon.

You might think that at this moment, nobody would question the value of these services, you’d be wrong. Republican Congressman, Eric Cantor is warning that any money spent on Disaster Relief should be matched with Spending Cuts.
Now this is nothing new for Eric Cantor, he said the same thing in May when a tornado tore through Joplin, MO. killing 159 people and causing billions in damage.
We’re looking at ideology that is extreme. It distrusts even the most essential services that Government provides. Keeping people safe is the most important thing today. Politics aside, people are in danger’s way.
