Dear Campus Queer Group,

You have redeemed my faith in you--not all of you, but enough. The ones I cared about. It appears that some of you really are getting it.

Tentative love,

Asher J.

So, there's an art history class in the Spring that I'd really like to take. It has a travel component--only as far as Mexico, so I can probably scrape together enough money to go--and I want to do it. I need to go get permission from the prof who's teaching it, but he'll do it, for sure, because he really wanted me to go on the analogous trip ( Read more... )

I have to change the bulb, above the license plate on my car. Well--I hope so. Otherwise, it's more electrical system issues, in which case it'll probably cost more money than I have/want to spend, to fix it. It is cold, and dark, and I don't want to, but the due date on my fixit ticket is tomorrow. I might call and see if they'll give me an ( Read more... )

I am so tired of gay marriage as an issue. I mean, hey, don't get me wrong; I would love it if my actual, existing marriage from California this summer weren't so legally ambivalent. But you know what I'd trade it for, in a heartbeat ( Read more... )

1. Obama has been there for the trans community in a way that much of the cisgender gay community (which owes a number of its more significant gains to transpeople--Stonewall, anybody?) hasn't. Know what he's interested in passing that neither the HRC nor a hefty majority of the cis gay folk I'm closest to give a damn about? A trans-inclusive ( Read more... )

1. FUCK Proposition 8.

2. ...and all of the analogous measures just voted in, or already on the books. I'm talking to you, Kansas!

3. ...but I'd rather have a trans-inclusive ENDA. If, you know, I have to choose.

ELECTION DAY! ELECTION DAY! CAN'T SLEEP! ELECTION DAY! OMGWTFBBQ!!!

But I'm gonna go try, 'cause there's no WAY I'm sleeping while votes are being counted tonight.

ELECTION DAAAAAAY!!!

I am tentatively scheduled for a trip to Sherman, TX, to speak to a gender studies class at Austin College. This is, in some ways, much lower stakes than speaking at Baylor--I don't know these people; I don't much care what they think of me. I mean, I like their professor, and all; and it'd be cool to keep him liking me, and me in his list of ( Read more... )
