FACT: Hot Chip’s “Colours” has more meaning to me than anyone could possibly understand. I basically dive into dreamland everytime I hear it. For the time being, life seems better there.
That sounded so emo.
Colours are what keep me alive
Colours I want to hold in my hand
Colours are where my old makes new
Colours are where my brain finds blue

I hurt my foot again. And this time it was my good foot. People shouldn’t wear knives on their feet stilettos to a Get Up Kids concert. Then again, I chose to stand next to someone wearing them. Fail. Fail. Fail. Fail.

Chart of the Day: “Explicit Support for Same-Sex Marriage by State and Age” (pdf) by Jeff Lax and Justin Phillips of the Department of Political Science at Columbia University. Created using data collected for a joint paper on gay rights.
Prof. Lax breaks it down:
Seven states cross the 50% mark overall as of our current estimates, but the generation gap is huge. If policy were set by state-by-state majorities of those 65 or older, none would allow same-sex marriage. If policy were set by those under 30, only 12 states would not allow-same-sex marriage.
