The fail was back in November when a small majority of voters went against equal marriage rights. The state supreme court <a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/05/26/BAE017PTAD.DTL&amp;tsp=1">just upheld the proposition</a>, because they are bound to decide on the law rather than principle. At least they also confirmed the legal marriages during the interim. But it's not the court's fault, it's the voters' fault, so that's where we have to fight it next. <br /><br /><b>(<a href="http://msilverstar.insanejournal.com/84983.html">Read more ...</a>)</b>

I've been quiet about <a href="http://flourish.dreamwidth.org/428758.html">Mammothgate (Racefail 09 part deux)</a>, partly because it's so easy for me to understand the blindness going on there. I doubt I would have even noticed the assumptions, much less thought of speaking out against them. I just didn't see it either, completely missed the <i>wrongness</i> of handwavingly undoing the existence of all Native Americans for the sake of an interesting story. <br /><br /><b>(<a href="http://msilverstar.insanejournal.com/83916.html">Read more ...</a>)</b>
