Seattle
I do not want to leave Seattle tomorrow. This is where I belong; it is painfully obvious.

He’s seriously been disappointing me lately. When I learned of his lack of compassion, that was the first bummer… But now this? Ugh.

I’m leaving for Seattle in just over 6 hours and I can’t wait! I will get to check out a city that I’m in love with for the first time… and see its beauty in person. I’ll get to stuff myself with seafood and art and beautiful, beautiful overcast weather! AND I GET TO GO SKIING! I reached my goal of losing 30 pounds to fit back into my ski pants, so this is going to be...

How am I supposed to compete?
allmytoysaredead:
How am I supposed to compete with an Armani model? Or J. Crew? A&F? I can’t. But that’s the archetype of an ideal boyfriend for most gay men. A toned, hairless body. So many gay boys desire that model physique and appearance for themselves and their ideal partner. It’s all over their tumblrs, their bedroom walls, their magazines, computers, photobucket galleries. But maybe...

If I thought the Billboard Top 100 was an accurate survey of my craft, I would switch professions. This is getting more ridiculous by the day, people.
STOP LISTENING TO SHIT. Demand better art!
SUPPORT ARTISTS—NOT RECORD LABEL CREATIONS!

Happy Hanukkah! It’s the start of your Eight Nights of Celebration, and I couldn’t be happier for you. You guys deserve all eight days of happiness.
Here’s my issue: As a Christian, I only get one day to celebrate the birth of my Jesus. Please don’t steal that from me….

It’s biology, folks. I understand that people want to identify as someone else, but I, and most of the world, will identify you by the differences of your organs and the innerworkings of them.

I’ve been told that a 4.0 is a turnoff when applying to med school. Apparently, the admissions boards will assume that I’m not well-rounded, and being “nothing but brains” doesn’t look good. I have volunteered at hospitals, did research and clinical with instructors and physicians, and I continue…

Fact - Hinduism has always taught that the Universe is billions of years old. It has always taught that there are multiple Universes as well. It has always taught that neither energy nor matter can be created nor destroyed. It has made astrological predictions with unrivaled accuracy.

Sing with Lea Michele, Barbra, and Joan Baez at some point
Change my name (or just decide on a stage name)

bowlersonstrike:
It’s hypocritical that you would hate on someone for having a view that differs from yours. Perry says…”I don’t think homosexuality should be acceptable” and others say…”Fuck you Perry!!! We’ll think what we damn well please!!!” They advocate “free thinking” and “open-mindedness” yet don’t allow others to think freely or keep an open mind to the ideas of others. You certainly...

Anonymous asked: I just happened to be browsing tumblr when I came across your blog. It's very interesting. I listened to your music... and let me tell you, it was quite enjoyable. Keep up the good work. Are you a "Music Major?"
On being a parent.
I’m probably not going to sleep well tonight.
It’s 25 degrees outside (I live in San Antonio—that’s super cold here) and I have giant windows, stone floors, and bad drafts at night in my room since it’s pretty big… Normally, those would be things to brag about, but in the winter it puts the lives of my pets in danger.
I know I’m more worried than I...

If it’s so offensive and difficult for you to be politically correct (or just decent) then it is offensive and difficult for me to associate with you.
If you can’t handle using the term “transgender” instead of “tranny,” “fag” instead of “gay,” or something as simple as referring to someone with their preferred gender pronouns, then I...

I'm a genius!
If Florence Welch and Marina Diamandis sang a duet, it would probably be so beautiful that it would end the world.
And they would go down in history as:
FLORENCE, MARINA, AND THE DIAMOND MACHINE.

To Gay Men, From A Christian Man
mosesoperandi:
I’m about to say something unpopular. Something that will hurt. But I’m trying to speak in love what Christ has laid on my heart.
I think you’re wrong to act as you do. God created sex for men and women to share together. But when we started sinning, we couldn’t stop, and we began to throw out the laws God put in place. And that led to homosexuality. It’s not a new or hip thing,...

A message to future "family values" politicians.
Hello. I don’t know you and I probably won’t like you. You see, legislating morality is a slippery slope (you see what I did there? I used your term) that can only lead to something worse than a “nanny state,” and that is a “daddy” state.
But I have a word of advice. Before you start your “I’m going to save America!” diatribe as a moral...
Sometimes I wish I wasn't gay.
thatjesskid:
I think about it a lot, and I only want my love to be safe and happy, and in my arms. But I can’t do anything other than what I’ve already done and it sucks. It just sucks so much. I hate it that so many people treat me like I’m an animal, something to be feared, something to be attacked.
That’s why we have to keep showing the world our best. You’re beautiful (I just...

Payroll Tax Cut Extension Rejected In Senate Vote →
The GOP has filibustered the payroll tax cut extension. Yes, the party that wants to protect people from evil, dangerous taxes has voted to raise them on the middle class to avoid a 3.25% raise on taxes of those making more than $1million a year.
That means middle class families could face a tax increase of around $1,000 this year.
And letting the Bush tax cuts expire would be unfair? Oh okay.

THIS BLOG IS NOT RON PAUL FRIENDLY.
paxamericana:
Ron Paul wants to define life as starting at conception, build a fence along the US-Mexico border, prevent the Supreme Court from hearing cases on the Establishment Clause or the right to privacy, permitting the return of sodomy laws and the like (a bill which he has repeatedly re-introduced), pull out of the UN, disband NATO, end birthright citizenship, deny federal funding to any...

– Newt Gingrich • Speaking on immigration policy to a group of Nationwide Insurance employees in Des Moines, Iowa, after signing a pledge to erect a Mexican border fence by the end of 2013. It should be said that this stance is in no way incompatible with Gingrich’s softer tone on long-term immigrants...
