A Little Notice to the World...

I recently joined QueerFilter, and I saw a post on the forum from this guy named Joe Brummer. He was trying to get a message out to the gay community about an anti-gay Christian radio show, so I figured I'd help out a bit by relaying his message. Here's what Joe has to say...

"Would you please consider the following to put out on your blog to help promote my efforts to Stop the Hate!

Stephen Bennett ministries has started an ex-gay, anti-gay radio show called, Straight Talk Radio. They have a website that is www.straightalkradio.org . On that site is a web discussion board that has become just a venue for ex-gays to discuss how horrid the gay "lifestyle" is and how destructive homosexuality is. Just real lovely stuff.

I have started a campaign to flood that web board with pro-gay, but polite messages letting Stephen Bennett know just who his show is hurting. I do not want people to send him hate messages, in fact I want them to send messages of love and pity. I would love to fill his web board with so many nice, polite gay people to let him know who he is hurting. Sticking with the nonviolence principles of SoulForce. Any negative messages posted he will just use against gays to show how "evil" we are (puke)

Details of this effort are on my website as well as some info about his radio show. The shows topics are just as endearing as the web board. One show was "the medical dangers of homosexuality' another was Matt Barber (guy who was fired from Allstate for being too anti-gay) as a guest.

Any help you could give me in getting the word out for people to visit this site, join his web board and offer messages of hope rather than hate, would be really great.

Please let me know if you can help. I would be happy to write a blog entry for your blog or even if you could just write a quick blurb sending them to my blog were I have lots of info and some quotes from Stephen Bennett.

Joe Brummer"

On a related note, I urge you guys to sign the petition against this particular radio show. I know people often think petitions are pointless. But at the very least, you'll express to the world what you think about such hateful media. Sign Joe's petition here. Thanks all.

Until next time...

Magical Moocow Christmas

Note: This post was written on the 24th, but I intentionally waited until today to post it. That's why the dates seem slightly wonky.

As you can see, it’s been a tiny bit since I last updated the blog. Not much has really happened in that time, but I figured I’d fill you guys in anyway. At the moment, it’s about 10 in the morning. It’s a Saturday [the 24th, of course] and I just finished watching That’s So Raven on ABC. [Yeah… I’m a dork like that.] I’m feeling much better than I was Friday. Dani had me really bummed yesterday. It wasn’t his fault, when I think about it. Really just my fault for reacting the way I did. He didn’t do anything wrong, but I was just so upset about everything that day and I took it out on him by being a bit of a jerk. I didn’t mean to do that. He’s always really sweet to me, and I tend to lose my patience with him. I suck. *sigh* But he accepted my apology, so all is well. He and I are back to normal, which is good.

The board is doing a tad better, thanks to Ferret. I mean… ok… most people are still ignoring it entirely and will soon have their neglecting asses deleted. But at least Ferret is bringing more attention to it, which is pretty cool. [Thanks, Ferret.] Now the rest of you evil bitches need to hurry up and join, or I’m tracking you down individually and sodomizing you with jagged pieces of toast. Some of you happen to be members of other forums, so I know you’re capable of posting on my board. Do it!

I hate shaving. Of all the things I hate in the world, its right up there with moldy tampons and rectum-flavored ice cream. [Luckily, I’ve yet to come in contact with either.] Shaving just takes too much precious time. I think I’ll just stop shaving altogether and grow a beard like those dudes in ZZ Top. That’d be cool. I’d look like a total weirdo and I’d likely be routinely confused with Hasidic Jews, but at least I wouldn’t have to worry about razors and such. And the shaving cream always makes my face all cold. That’s just not cool. I propose an amendment to the United States Constitution that will henceforth make it illegal for beards to grow. *nods emphatically* I’ll pass the petition around. Anyone care to sign?

My infatuation with Ricky Ullman has returned. *hangs head in shame* I’m sitting here watching Phil of the Future, and it’s all coming back to me. [Dani’s going to tease me endlessly for this, I can tell.] Damn you Ricky Ullman and your pseudo-futuristic cutenicity!!! *throws a chair in mock anger* But yeah… I just found a Ricky poster in my room. I’d totally forgotten it existed, but I apparently got it quite some time ago in one of those meant-for-dorky-teen-girls magazines I tend to buy. [I know… I’m pathetic.] The poster is now on my ceiling, where I likely originally intended to put it.

Update on the computer thing: I have one! *dances merrily in little circles* I gathered enough money and purchased an HP Pavilion desktop computer, which I am super proud of. I’ve already filled 89% of the hard drive space with gay porn. [Just joking. I have some, but I’m not that perverse.] It’s really cool to have a computer that I can use without having to ask permission. And it’s XP, which is awesome because it allows me to use Google Earth [one of the coolest programs for dorks like me] which wasn’t supported by the Windows 98 computer my mother has. So hooray for new computers and the endless supply of… er… endlessness!

As a final thought for the moment, I urge you all to go see Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire right away! I’ve seen it 3 times already, and I’m pretty sure I’ll end up seeing it loads more times before it’s available on DVD. I keep wanting to trample people in the street and yell Avada Kedavra at the top of my lungs. [Oh, how I love those Unforgivable Curses.] And now every time I see Daniel Radcliffe somewhere, I imagine bubbles. *happy sigh* So yeah… go see the movie, now!

On that note, I shall run. Take care of yourselves, my seething little sea monkeys. Happy Holidays to all of you!

Until next time…
