Sorry, but i have to disagree with you about Steve Fielding. Yes, he is a total crackpot, but he holds the balance of power in the senate, making him quite important to parliamentary process. Also, lets not forget the woman campaigning for Family First who said that lesbians must be burnt at the stake. Family First opposes legal recognition for same-sex couples, access to adoption and IVF, as thinks women should get out of the workforce and back in the home. I agree that alot of people don’t take Steve Fielding very seriously, but the man has considerable power in the senate, and shouldn’t be dismissed so lightly, much as is would be nice to.

I like socks from the Gap and Autostraddle and blonde, bourbon soaked gnomes (though I’ve never met one – I’m sure they are lovely). Also, I have to be honest…right wing Christians really scare me.

I recently saw an excellent documentary called Fish Out Of Water that is about LGBT faith, and I highly recommend it to anyone/everyone. It basically uses arguments and explanations from priest/preachers to help debunk the notions that the Bible condemns homosexuality, and it is filled with personal interviews on the subject. The creators of the movie are from Chicago, but soon they are taking it on the road, to colleges, town halls, etc. in places that don’t get film festivals (I saw it at the Reeling, the Chicago International Lesbian & Gay Film Festival) to show for free! The website is http://www.fishoutofwaterfilm.com/ and you can see when and where it is playing, sign up to buy the dvd, contact them to try and arrange a showing in your area, etc. They do have some money because they got some backing from Showtime, but not a lot, so it’s mostly grassroots

it’s a sociological experiment. everyone sees something different (somehow) and it’s supposed to like, predict which boy has a crush on you or something.
