You know how sometimes you’re walking down the street casually glancing in the windows of the various shops on a sunny day.
And then you pass a shop where you see a cute guy inside the store, so you slow your pace just a bit.
And in the space of time it takes to walk one more [...]

So, keep lobbying for your favorite, because your votes will be critical in the final “popularity” category. And you can try and convince me who [...]

So, one thing about being FUNemployed, it leads me to feeling super-responsible on matters of legislative involvement. I’m writing to my elected officials all the time these days. Calling them, too.
Some of the issues that have me writing:
Statewide (Ohio):

Although I never said as much officially, for the last year, I’ve thought of Diggs as the unofficial mascot of Blind Prophecy. While I’ve decided he will always be the mascot in memoriam, it’s time to designate a new mascot who can help carry the blog forward.

Yesterday’s post about the frustration and anger felt by the queer community at the lack of progress on civil rights has generated an unusually high level of traffic for my blog. Unfortunately, as urgent as I think queer rights legislation is, I’m simply not as angry with the President as many LGBT people.
I’m not an [...]
