My moms have been together for over three decades and were married in NYC last year. Today, my country decided to recognize my family.

SCOTUS shouldn't fuck with democratically created laws? Where's my time machine? I want today Scalia to have a chat with yesterday Scalia

P.S. No celebrating for me without remembering what happened yesterday. I stand with all my fellow citizens--notably, people of color and Latinos--whose right to vote has been assaulted and will now be assaulted strongly in state after state throughout the U.S. We all stand together or we all fall together.
