The great thing about Ruzicka is that she's all but incoherent. Words come out of her mouth and yes, we generally get the sense that they are hateful and disgusting, yet do we ever really understand what, exactly, she is attempting to say? There must be a point concealed somewhere in the mass of verbiage, but I certainly can't find it.

In a weird way, people like Ruzicka give me hope for the future: they are just too goddamned stupid to keep people's attention forever.

Kammorremae: That is above and beyond badass. Your design definitely seems to have an advantage over the leotard/potato sack concept, and I will give it some serious consideration!

ummm.. this is random. a few years ago an uneducated someone was trying to pass a bill removing a parent's right to "ok" ECT treatment for their children, a subject i'm familiar with.... ruzicka just blabbed ON and ON and ON and ON about NOTHING pertaining to the actual bill. it was amazing. i was appalled by her ability to drone on about basically NOTHING in order to pass a pointless bill, i went to 2 sessions, she demonstrated her unending "knowledge" regarding the subject both times.

Kammorremae: Sounds like a pretty accurate interpretation to me. The actual costume is fashioned from a yellow leotard and a potato sack. I know it doesn't sound like much, but the yellow adds the umph and flexibility while the sack provides the durability. Practical, see. I'll consider the costume you've conveyed, however, especially if you had a picture to illustrate it.

About this pansexual bidness, it's essentially bisexual but is a sexual orientation not ... how to put it, limited (not to say bisexuality is limited - poor phrasing) by the gender binary. It doesn't necessarily have to even be gender dependent; or can be open to attraction to people who are intersex, transgender, genderqueer, etc.

I suspect wikipedia defines and explains it much better than I have. ;)

For some reason Mel, when I think about you fighting for equal rights, I get this mental picture of you, quite literally, fighting for your rights, dressed like a space marine from StarCraft or Warhammer 40k (might have to draw that...). I think you'll do a great job.

Oh, btw, "pansexual"?

i've had the displeasure of dealing with ruzicka myself. what a scary ignorant fucking bitch. yep, that's how i feel about it. she never has any logical goddamn basis of what she's supporting.

alright, sorry to spam your blog with all these posts; I found the info at equalityutah.org and it looks like there are plenty of ways to help out under the GIANT "GET INVOLVED" button. Phone bank and rally next week. Check.

well let me know how to contact folks or when the next group lobbying event is - when, where, etc.

I also wanted to just post this here because the word verification is "ovies" and that made me laugh a little.

dscokween: We all do. At the training they even talked about this cute mom who had called Equality Utah and latched on to one of them on one of their group lobbying days. She was completely petrified, silent, wild-eyed. But, even then, she was another body in support putting a face to issues the legislators are very misinformed about.

Here's the kicker. The next day, she was up there ALL ALONE lobbying all by herself.

Now THAT is guts and also incentive that, no matter how scary any kind of involvement sounds, once you do it, get over the hurdle, it ends up being a lot of fun, surprisingly simple, effective, and really empowering.

wow!!! I wish I had more guts to actually go up and talk to people there. If you need a straight person by your side who has no direct ties to the LGBT movement, other than I believe in the Common Ground Initiatives, please let me know what I can do. I couldn't do it alone, though. When they had the rally two weeks ago, I had purchased tickets to "Dirt! the movie" and was otherwise obligated. I'd still like to do something that could make a difference.

I wonder how much of this actually has to do with anti-gay or anything other than LDS sanctified marriage rights, and how much has to do with fear of validating some sort of polygamist situation? As legislators, there seems to be so much fear mongering, but what is so fearful about other people's lives? I think they are more afraid of how it will change and affect the way mormons are perceived nationally. Or grant rights through some loophole to the people they try to distance themselves most from; the polygamist splinter groups. The mo's have a huge image complex, huh?
