Pro-Marriage Equality Mayors of the Day: The mayors of New York City, Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, Houston, San Diego, and dozens of other cities across the country have announced the formation of a coalition in support “of the freedom of same-sex couples to marry.”
Mayors for Freedom to Marry brings together 78 mayors and counting under the banner of marriage equality.
In a statement released jointly with the LGBT group Freedom to Marry, the mayors express their unequivocal belief that all people deserve the right “to marry the person with whom they share their life.”
The statement continues: 

We stand for the freedom to marry because it enhances the economic competitiveness of our communities, improves the lives of families that call our cities home, and is simply the right thing to do.  We look forward to working to build an America where all people can share in the love and commitment of marriage with the person with whom they share their life.

The complete statement and a full list of mayors who have joined the initiative can be seen here.

The Second City’s excellent anti-Rick Perry ad.

Meanwhile, the real ad has, as of this writing, 171,134 dislikes and has been flagged for hate or abusive speech, as it should the fuck be.

HA!

“Rick Perry may believe in God, but I’ve seen his polls. And God does not believe in Rick Perry.”

Validation at the Allergist’s Office

Upon signing in for my appointment,

Front desk lady: Oh what a cute bag!

Me: (very pleased) Why thank you!

Front desk lady is about to hand me a new patient form clipboard,

Me: I actually filled out the paperwork already…

I whip a file folder out of my purse and hand over the appropriate paperwork.

Front desk lady: (shrieking with delight) OH, and she has it in a folder too!

My last 3 months being obsessed with finding the perfect purse that will fit letter sized paper without folding and then creating the perfect organizer for said purse so I can produce any given item within seconds =

TOTALLY JUSTIFIED
