Friday went by uneventful.
Met up with

stefsoleil in the morning and with

nairie and

evil_trisha at night.
*loves on all*

I'm still giggling over the scene in the Arrested Development pilot. I've seen it lots of times but it was a first for the girls.
And when TObias enters the gay boat dressed up as a pirat, Trisha lost it :)
We couldnt stop laughing for minutes ..

Not so much laughing this morning, though.
I just finished watching "The Laramie Project" about the murder of Matthew Shepard back in '98 and i can't stop crying..
How in the world can anybody tell someone that it's wrong to love the person he wants to?!
How in the world??
A discussion that's been with me for years and years and I feel like telling EVERYBODY that there is nothing wrong with it..
And.. I feel I cannot express my feelings to this .. cant find the right words..
just.. sadness..

Silly feeling tells me to go out into town today and tell every gay person I can find to shout it out ...
And I feel like shouting at the ignorant people ..

Well, David said he might come to P-Platz later, join us if you want to tell him... ;-)

ahaha.. yes..
when do you want to go btw?!

I want to be there a little before 1. I'm not sure how long the post office there is open, so...

hab dir ne email geschrieben

Ah... "The Laramie Project"... now that's a really important movie. Glad you saw it, even if it's very emotional to watch.

have been crying my ass off in the scene where this guy talks about the homecoming parade.. you know where the amount of people protesting for matt grew and grew..
*tears*

Yeah, there are some real powerful scenes in that movie. Joshua Jackson for example really has some tear jerker moments.

Oh, you're watching "Arrested Development"? I've been toying around with idea in getting started with the show since ages... but until now these vague plans always came to nothing. *lol* What is is actually about? All I know is "comedy", "it's great!" and "always in danger to get cancelled".

oooh..we should watch it all together..

it's about a sane guy trying to cope with his insane family ..

Preach it, sister! ♥
That's the reason I still think coming out and staying out is so important (and that's why I wear my "gay badges" ;)) even though some people say acceptance would be so much easier if we didn't go around waving rainbow flags - people need to realize that not all queer people are stereotypes, that they live and love just like everyone else. That the quiet, "normal" girl-next-door is as likely to be gay as the flaming queen you see at what TV shows of Pride Parade.

And that's why everyone should watch The Laramie Project. Imho it's not the best movie, technically, but it does a great job of showing the cruelty of that crime, and what prjudices queer people still face.

Ok, I'll stop rambling now. *lol*

arrested development ist so geil...warte nur auf die zweite staffel. ich bin jetzt grad beo 304,,,die folgen sind immer noch super...grad die letzte folge hat mich wieder total fertiggemacht...HAMMER!!!

We studied the Laramie Porject play and the HBO version in one of my film classes, and I got a chance to see a version of it performed live in Toronto. Not only is it an emotional issue of itself, the play and the HBO version are both phenominal.
So many things boggle my mind. . .how people can not just see that we should all accept and respect one another I just don't understand. Especially in Western countries, where we're supposedly raised to have an open mind, and embrace the idea of equality.
