Wow, they're just beautiful!

Sacrilege! No, no, no! The point of having a library like one pictured is to fill it with books to be read, and books you have read, and reference material! Ack! *twitch*

(Oh to have such space to store the ever-growing collection rather than having to purge it a intervals. *sigh*)

Firstly, hurrah for California in following the lead of my home state of Massachusetts and making strides towards equal rights for all.

The very idea that the government should be in charge of whether consenting adults should or shouldn't be allowed to marry is just bizarre.

Secondly, Hear, Hear! I wholeheartedly agree the government has no business determining who I can and cannot marry as long as they're of age. I'm actually all for the government getting completely out of the marriage business and, instead, having either religious unions, or contracts between consenting adults for whatever given term they so desire, be it short-term, long-term, or life-long. Given that this will not fly in the US in the foreseeable future, I'm thrilled same sex couples are being guaranteed the same rights as heterosexual couples.
