YES, SAME-SEX MARRIAGE IS IMPORTANT. BUT I WANT STRAIGHT ALLIES TO TAKE THIS INTO CONSIDERATION AS WELL.

• It is still legal in 29 states to fire someone for being gay/bisexual/pansexual/not straight.

• It is still legal in 32 states to fire someone for being trans.

• It is legal in 29 states to evict someone for being queer.

• It is still purposefully difficult for same-sex couples to adopt children.

• Bisexual, pansexual, polysexual, asexual, and demisexual people exist.

• So, you know. It’s not “gay” marriage that was legalized. It’s same-sex marriage that was legalized.

• Queer people (especially minors) are still getting beaten to death and kicked out of their homes.

• Being queer is still illegal in 79 countries.

• Being queer is still punishable by DEATH in 5 countries.

• The fight is far from over.

It’s nice when someone remembers small details about you.

It’s ok to celebrate the HELL out of NATIONWIDE MARRIAGE EQUALITY for the amazing step it is, while also being aware that we have so much further to go. We can do both. We have the capacity for both.

Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase, they quit. Most people I know who do interesting, creative work went through years of this. We know our work doesn’t have this special thing that we want it to have. We all go through this. And if you are just starting out or you are still in this phase, you gotta know its normal and the most important thing you can do is do a lot of work. Put yourself on a deadline so that every week you will finish one story. It is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions. And I took longer to figure out how to do this than anyone I’ve ever met. It’s gonna take awhile. It’s normal to take awhile. You’ve just gotta fight your way through.

i hate when you have to order at a restaurant, but all the menu items have really goofy or long names. like wtf its so embarrassing to look your waiter in the eyes and be like “yes i’ll have Uncle Jimmy’s Finger Lickin’ Rib Ticklin Hootin-n-Hollerin’ Cajun Heat Super Stack Supreme Cheese Burger.”
