So far today I got up, had a shower ( already surpassed my expectations of productivity for the day) Demo’d a new version of an old song on garage band. Had a pot noodle. Will now spend a few hours reading the new rock sound cover to cover. If I...

keepmeinframe: stoogette: So HMV have released a stricter appearance policy, big fucking deal. As a tattooed person I knew very well going into it that the job market would become more challenging. I knew that people would look at me differently as I walked down the street. I knew… I work in HMV Braehead and my manager just laughed at the fact girls have to wear skirts. There’s...

So today my Gran referred to the gay community as...

She went to say that marriage is between a man and a women. “They” already have all the rights with a civil partnership so why do they need to call it marriage? Later we were talking about the gay couple that sued a hotel for chucking them out. My gran, (who has run a b&b for years) said she wouldn’t have them under her roof. I don’t really know where I’m going...
