This whole "parents rush to Nebraska to dump their teenagers" thing is like deja vu all over again. It happened to me at age 12, back in 1993. I got lucky because at least my parents stayed in the state with me, but still. I feel for you kids, I really do.
Good luck to whoever goes to the prop 8 protests this weekend. I'm not going myself because I'm a lazy shit who would rather sleep, but godspeed. Don't let anyone tell you that it's a waste of energy showing solidarity and maintaining a positive public presence. It'll do some good nationwide when folks see you and realize you're not monsters, but pretty much just regular people. It's a bummer that there will probably be freaks showing up in rubber buttless chaps because they think gay=SEXXXXX PARTY WOOO NO RULEZZZ. Ah well.

Just got back from a protest it was awesome and touching. I'm up in Bellingham, WA so we got a lot of support honks from the community. I really hope we can get rid of all this "ban gay marriage" shit soon.
