Prop 8 --- A project.

Thu Jan 29, 2009, 8:45 PM






So I wanted to update everyone on how things were going mostly concerning my life and I have to say that i've finished a project.

There have been some things about 2008 that impacted us ALL more than others and I believe Proposition 8 was one of those things. Very quickly i've witnessed a great deal of people already falling prey to the lack of unity that that gave to the community of those who understand... the community of people I took time out to reassure.

I'm still here, no matter how harsh I sound, it's still the same old me, and to prove it, i'm introducing something to make you all remember.

A series of drawings.

Each one representing me and my wife, and the drawings WILL CONTINUE until we are married.

This is just going to be a standard feature, and no matter how counter-productive this will feel to me at times, reminding me of what I have been robbed of, I won't stop making this until the fact comes around that I am.

What exactly are these pictures? They are tributes to the characters we are cosplaying as pairings. So far me and my wife have yet to Cosplay a great deal, however, I have completed the first set, and am now giving you a piece of my will to fight and remind us all what we have lost and are steadily going to regain.

If anyone would like to contribute, then of course I invite you to plaster it all over DA, sort of as support, more as a way to keep spreading the word about what is going on, and to remind people that there are those out there who won't forget.

I give to you a the show of a ... well just a continuous battle that has been faught by many before us and will continue to be faught by myself.

I don't think I can find any BETTER way to say this, words are a fallicy for me, I find myself day by day discovering new ways to phrase more delicately a situation, and for me, there is no more of a delicate way to say this then, or so I hope, will be in the future.

As for everyone else out there, I remind you all of your love, and that it should never be viewed as invalid.



Thank you to EVERYONE who created support art for this project:

Show me that you'll softly touch my raised palms
Ever and never end
Surely, I've searched for the unfading miracle named you
Touch me with stronger palms; Ever and never end
:iconbabykaoru-sama:
I really do support the both of you in your fight. I have two Aunties that have been with each other longer then I have been on this earth, and they're still fighting for equal rights up to this very day. I hope your dream will become reality. You have my support. :hug:

FIGHT FOR LOVE!

Damn straight, Naru -- you've got MY full support, 100% -- I was so pissed at Prop 8 I swear...>< It's not fair how people try to tear love away just like that. Love shouldn't be something you should ban or take away.

I'm not very good at drawing (least, in my opinion) so I'll have to spread the message some other way. But I'll keep fighting too. I don't want to let it win and I won't. I'm miles away but I'm still here and I'll do all I can. Promise ^_^ I definitely won't forget.

*sends love* :heart:

Want to know something funny? When California passed Prop 8, they didn't run it through proper legislature first. It just went right into the law. Which is pretty illegal as far as I know ... anyway I heard it's already in the California Supreme Court, is that true?

Power to you, man.

In all those years dragging his feet from place to place, city to city, like a beggar with his hand outstretched, he had only a theorem to offer. I can be your lever, with me you can move the world, just give me a goddamn place to stand.
:iconpringlebunny:
I think this is a wonderful idea and I fully support you and everyone else who has yet to have their dreams realized. If I want to support you and draw something for you two, should I link back to you or the journal, to let people know what I'm supporting?

Fellow introverts know that silence doesn't signal "shy and sweet" as much as it signals "quietly fucked in the head".
:iconichigootaku:
Drawings or not, you have my full support!! I think the drawings are a good idea.

*also fails with words* If I ever draw a picture dedicated to this, then I will let you know.

The sting of words and actions of those who know nothing of who we are or how we feel can scar the deepest. those wounds will never heal and the pain will never vanish. What actions we take will show the strength of conviction and power of the love in our hearts.

for what little it may be worth i support you all the way

It never matters how it went ... it only maters how well you tell the story :teddy:

Hey, uh. Here's an idea that ~Impure-Impulse and I came up with when we were talking about this, that would arguably be even more useful than just posting pics up on DA. (I'm not saying what you're doing is wrong, of course, but it's just a thought~)

You guys are popular. Make prints of all these drawings and sell them. Then turn around, take the money you make from them, and donate 100% of it directly to The Human Rights Campaign, a group working to overturn Prop 8. Put a link in your journal too, ask your fans to throw a few dollars in their direction if they can afford it.

Just a suggestion! You certainly don't have to follow it, I know it can sometimes be a pain to have prints made, but we thought it might be useful.

I think it's similar to camels actually, which is similar to beef. So llamas taste like beef :D.

Too much llama if you asked me. I have no idea what I did when I started this shit. Is it the fuzziness of the llama's fur? Their foul spitting habits? Their sexy legs? Okay I need to stop now :-|.
