Sometimes, I wonder if you’re okay.

This is a personal post. I’m making it because I just need to get this out because it has been wearing on my mind so much lately. This is my only feasible option to do that. I trust that if you read this, you will also keep it private.
As far as I know, my parents are getting a divorce. How this came about is a private matter that I feel should be kept within my family. Neither of them is making my brother, my sister, and me pick a side. Both of my parents still love all three of us and I don’t love either of them any less.
It’s just weird because everything I’ve known is going to change. And there’s just so much more to all of this and… yeah. It’s difficult.
I need to rant so, so badly. You guys don’t even understand.
but it’s about something super personal and it involves my family, and this probably is nowhere close to being the appropriate place to do it.

Prop 8 Overturned! →

“Proposition 8 fails to advance any rational basis in
singling out gay men and lesbians for denial of a marriage license. Indeed, the evidence shows Proposition 8 does nothing more than enshrine in the California Constitution the notion that opposite-sex couples are superior to same-sex couples. Because California has no interest in discriminating against gay men and lesbians, and because Proposition 8 prevents California from fulfilling its constitutional obligation to provide marriages on an equal basis, the court concludes that Proposition 8 is unconstitutional.…
Because Proposition 8 is unconstitutional under both the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses, the court orders entry of judgment permanently enjoining its enforcement; prohibiting the official defendants from applying or enforcing Proposition 8 and directing the official defendants that all persons under their control or supervision shall not apply or enforce Proposition 8. The clerk is DIRECTED to enter judgment without bond in favor of plaintiffs and plaintiff-intervenors and against defendants and defendant-intervenors pursuant to FRCP 58.”
