chemins du désir

If you're seeing me reblogging fandom stuff it's allllllll going on rimmer's lust monster, my embarrassing collection of things that I try to hide but can't care anymore.

stupid, silly things blog: DUDESIR
travel photoblog: desire paths

a collection of things deemed beautiful or insightful by my admittedly unsophisticated mind... and occasionally just relevant to my interests. frequent pleas for social justice will no doubt make an appearance

rough estimate: 60% art, 15% politics, 10% fandom, 10% cute animal, 5% misc.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

 

He is rigid and a homophobic. He said, ‘I want a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage,’ and they said, ‘Well, what about the people who are already married?’ And he said, ‘Well, they would be nullified.’ I mean what is, what’s human, what’s kind about that? We’re all human beings, we all know or love somebody who’s gay or lesbian so what the hell is that about? To me it’s startling and borders on disgust.

Former US Senator Al Simpson, (R-Wyo.) on Rick Santorum. In 2011, Simpson emailed me this statement on HB 74, a bill to ban recognition of same-sex marriage in Wyoming:

“I can’t imagine anything more inhuman, insensitive and unfair. Wyoming people believe in getting the government out of their lives. We cherish the precious right of privacy, and the precious right to be left alone. Why can’t we extend that to all our other fellow human beings?”

If the GOP adopted that line of thinking nationally, it would be a radical step forward.

Though Simpson voted for the Defense of Marriage Act [DOMA] in 1996, he has since supported marriage equality. Good on him for calling out Santorum’s homophobia.
