Aimless Rant #1

So I find it nearing 8pm and I have no clue what to blog about. Therefore, my ultimate purpose here will be to ramble about meaningless things well enough to be considered for a job as a Republican speechwriter. Let's see how well I can do.
First, let me talk about the use of technology in the field of writing. I think Facebook can be an interesting tool for discussing novels. I mean what better way to understand characterization than by making a FB profile for a character in a book and changing its relationship status, activity, and likes? Maybe Twitter as well--but I'm sure the powers-that-be would not be on board with that.
Oh so I just heard yet another gay student killed himself due to bullying. But this is of course in no way related to the fact that more states allow marriage between first cousins; or the fact that gay men are considered part of the same "At Risk" group for blood donation, as prostitutes and ex-drug users-- in fact, generally speaking, there is hardly any need to focus on it. Nope not all. (<--- Sarcasm). I'm so pissed off right now. I think Gay Americans should be exempt from paying as much in taxes as Straight Americans; I mean if they don't have the privileges of living freely and fucking marry who they want to, why should they foot as much of the responsibility?
I really have nothing else to say. I'll use Jamie Hubley's last words to finish for me, considering that no one else listened to him when he was alive:
"   I dont want my parents to think this is their fault either… I love my mom and dad : ) Its just too hard. I dont want to wait 3 more years, this hurts too much. How do you even know It will get better? Its not.
I hit rock f***ing bottom, fell through a crack, now im stuck"

  1. All very valid points. Here's hoping that other states join NY in making gay marriage legal. It's the only way that every other marriage in the country will be legitimized in my opinion.
