I feel I need a Wednesday pick-me-up.
Earlier in the week I had a little lump of excitement in my throat
after hearing the news that the teeny weeny triangle state of
Tasmania was going to legislate same sex marriage.
Effectively legalising gay marriage.
You go Tasmania!
For a brief second it looked like we might have our foot in the door.
I may even overlook the fact that Tasmania was actually the very last
state to decriminalise homosexuality.
state to decriminalise homosexuality.
But then comes reality.
Surprise, surprise.
To start with, Tasmanian liberals will (as predicted) not allow a conscience vote.
And even if Tasmania does manage to pass it there is absolutely no doubt they will have to take on
the High Court to decide which parliament has the power.

The Commonwealth or the State.
Well, after hearing Gillard's comments I'm sure as fuck cheering on in favour of the State.
With her standard monotone voice in check she says,
"We will fight and fight hard because this is a contest of values, a contest for the soul of our nation, and a battle to protect all we have achieved and hold dear,"
Lovely.
Just charming.
Comments from the ultimate wanker ie; opposition leader Abbott
(the backwards dick clever people have all fallen in hate with)
are even more insulting as expected.

Then I read comments from the Australian Christian Lobby who refer to
the legislation as, amonst others, "a social deconstruction".
This comment takes me off topic - how is it that such uneducated/moronic people can be in politics?
How many young kids are hearing or reading these comments and contemplating suicide?
Clearly the 'leaders' of this country have no heart.
Or balls for that matter.
It's not only sad and hurtful, it's embarrassing.
Here are a list of some countries that DO allow same sex marriage;
Argentina, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Iceland, Netherlands, Norway,
Portugal, Spain, South Africa and Sweden - as well states in Mexico and the US.
Hmm...
Is gay marriage really that terrifying?
How does it even affect you if you're not gay?
What's that slogan again...
'If you don't like gay marriage then don't get gay married'
Pretty fucking simple.
Well guess what government?
I sincerely suggest you best get your shit together.
I'm travelling to Canada early next year.
Yeah, Canada.
It's on that awesome list of non gay marriage haters.
See where I'm going with that?

But now to my pick-me-up.
Ooooo young love.
Makes me feel all squirmy thinking back to high school years.
Girl crushes.
Just begging, hoping and wishing that she feels the same.
I'm addicted to the SBS series Skins.
Awkward, pissed off, sexually active, drug taking teens.
Seasons 3 & 4 introduce us to Naomi and Emily.
This following clip made me laugh as I remember actually trying the exact
'blow back' move that Emily does right before this section of video starts.
Gay teenage love is among other adjectives...
Difficult. Incredible. Addictive. Painful. Exciting. Confronting. Real.
This clip includes the beautiful cover of Heartbeats sung in sweet voice of Ellie Goulding.

But there are times people fuck up.
Of course these two make up... It is young love after all.
Yep mission accomplished.
I feel good and charged again.
Lets promise not to hide now my pretties.
Raise that rainbow above your head and rejoice in your awesomeness.
