Equality March picspam, fic crap, Mad Men, etc
YEAH I POSTED PRETTY MUCH THE SAME THING AT ONTD_POLITICAL BUT WHATEVER.
EQUALITY MARCH PICSPAM!
Me + my bitching eye makeup
Mmk on the metro platform these 3 17 year old negros came up to me, tryin to hit on me at first (ONE OF THEM SRSLY SAID, "MY FRIEND WANTS TO STICK IT IN YOU." WTF IS WRONG WITH SOME BOYS IN DC, I'M SERIOUSLY, PEOPLE ARE NOT THIS FORWARD IN LA) and then when they asked what I was doing with my poster I told them that I was going to a gay rights rally. They're all, "YOU'RE GAY?" Um, my sign CLEARLY said "This STRAIGHT black woman wants to know, 'why are we still protesting this crap in 2009?'"). They then proceeded to trash gay people, loud as all hell mind you, and were even like, "we bash gays down here, we're going to mess up the rally" (I'm like, lolz okay you try). Eventually they were pissing me off SO badly that I was like, "You know, you can go be an attention whore all you want, but stop talking to me and shut the fuck up."
The stupid didn't end there though, and on the crowded train this other ignorant ass negro is like, "U TOO PRETTY FOR DIS SHIT, GIRL." I was like, "that's your opinion." I was SO relieved to see some other guys who go to Howard later who were at the march ♥
Anyway, then I got out of the train station and the awesomesauce commenced. I even ended up running into this girl I met at a Sondre Lerche concert earlier last month and we hung`out with each other for the rest of the rally.
Lolz this guy must have been strong to get up there, srsly.
Moi again.
Lolz looked like Hermione/Ginny fan art tbh.
More artz.
My sign.
The now infamous "Albus Dumbledore Supports Gay Marriage" poster in the very center.
MIRANDA FROM SEX AND THE CITY OMG. Yeah that's pretty much what everybody said.
Lolz teabagging.
IDK I liked their outfits.
:(
My friend and I were like, "now we have to see Lady Gaga". We also overheard these guys talking and one said, "So why do we like Lady Gaga all of a sudden?" His friend replied, "Madonna is getting too old and we need a new icon." Lolz confirms my Lady Gaga wants to be Madonna theory.
Supporters on the balcony of the news museum (I think?)
The crowd was EPIC.
:3
When Lady Gaga was on stage. It was so hard to get a photo over all these people AND I'M TALL.
Miss Gaga herself.
My friend and I :3 She had a Lipstick Lesbian pin XP
IDK there were a lot of cute dogs there.
Towards the end...
There were tons of great speakers, but the most memorable for me personally is when the NAACP guy spoke as well as this Jamaican poet. She was powerful as HELL. AND DID YOU KNOW THAT DAVE KOZ WAS GAY? I sure didn't, I gotta tell my mom, I know that for sure. The English woman who was singing with him botched half of America the beautiful. I cringed about 10 times. God, it's not THAT hard to learn!
ANYWAY, it was a great day, great speakers, great everything, and I did a lot of walking which never hurts. :)
IS THERE ANY OFFICIAL NUMBER OF HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE THERE?
In other news:
+ CHARLIE SOMETHING BIT ME D: IDK what but it got my right hand and now the entire right side is big, red, numb, and puffy. If it's still like this tomorrow I'm going to get it checked out because this is ridiculous.
+ Mom is still good in Rome. She's off to Florence tomorrow :D I've been talking to dad a lot lately, which is nice :3
+ I made some actual progress on the chapter of my AU. A LOT of Lily and Severus talking in Sev's lulzmobile volkswagon. I also have to add something about them listening about this on the radio since the date is June 19, 1967 at the moment. Also prob some vietnam casualty report. Over 900 people died in June of 1967...the more you know D:
In other news, I did some formatting changes at accio_salmon.
+ I HAVE SO MANY MIDTERMS THIS WEEK OMG D: And I have to read two gigantic pdfs for Race, Gender, and Law in Modern Europe. Erlack!
+ SPEAKING OF ERLACK IS THE LAST GEORGIA NICOLSON BOOK OUT YET? OMG OMG MUST GET IT. Also, the thesartorialist dude is doing a book signing in DC next week :D
+ MAD MEN!SAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CIVIL RIGHTS CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG TWO MORE EPS UNTIL JFK IS SHOT!!!!!!! DON FINALLY FUCKED THE TEACHER!!!!!!!!AHHH FUCK EVERYBODY (EXCEPT FOR CARLA)!!!!!!!!!!!! I've said this already a couple placed but I still find it amazing that people like Betty can view a black maid/nanny as practically a maternal figure and still be so fucking ignorant about their feelings/blackness. I'm glad that the civil rights movement is steadily making its way into the consciousness/daily conversations of these upper crest, north east people though. I think that the fact that it is being built up this way is not only intentional but VERY effective.
Mmmk that's all I can think of now. Have a good day bbs!
