We Are Not the Enemy


Please send work-safe photos with "We are not the enemy" somewhere in the image to wearenottheenemy@gmail.com. LGBT pals and groups are welcome; couple status is not required.

For a hearty dose of awesomeness, check it out. I think this is an awesome idea. I'd like to see billboards with similar pictures and message all over the country.

Institutionalized discrimination is not cool, mmkay? Stay classy Arizona and vote No on Prop 102. It's already illegal here for same sex couples to marry; do we really want anti-gay discrimination written directly into our state constitution?

You know those silly Amendments to the US Constitution: Thirteen, Fourteen, Fifteen, Nineteen, Twenty-Four, and Twenty-Six? Amendments are for righting wrongs, not compounding them.

Set the Field "Ryan" to the Value of "Failure"

I got an email today from Arizona Lithographers. I include the email here:

Ryan,

Thank you so very much for your time in interviewing with us for our CSR position. We did choose another candidate. You interview well and certainly come across as an intelligent and thoughtful person.

We wish you the very best in your search for a career. Thank you for your interest in Arizona Lithographers.

Sincerely,
Renda

So, I am an intelligent, thoughtful person who is still unemployed. This is for the suck. Can a brother get a break? I feel more and more like Princeton from Avenue Q as days go by. It can't be that hard to find a job. Perhaps I am being too picky. I am about two steps away from applying at the Walmart by my house. This is a sad state of affairs.

And this unemployment thing is making me a serious wet blanket. It's become the dominating force of my existence, and I declare that lame. It is duck with lamesauce.

Bollocks.
