Hello, my name is Jhames

My job is to make pretty things.

Hearsay: Why, that’s just crazy talk.

You go, girl.

Wanda Sykes is proud to be a black woman, and she is proud to be gay.

They pissed off the wrong group of people! They have galvanized our community.

In other words: we will not go quietly into the night. Not by a longshot.

Thanks, Chriso, for bringing this to my attention.


I’ve been out of the closet since I was 15. I go to work and I pay my taxes. If my boyfriend, godforbid, were to go to the hospital, I wouldn’t be allowed in the hospital since I am not legally recognized as his spouse. If I were to suddenly die, he would have no say in my funeral arrangements because he is not legally recognized as my spouse.

I have no civil rights as a gay man, and I’m tired of it.
