#35 on the iTunes chart right now. Probably will be in the twenties by tomorrow morning, and hopefully hit #1 after the episode airs.

Yes, I am talking about this song. Song spoiler for Glee 3x07.

I have been watching it since it was around #146 on the charts. This is rather satisfying.

Here.

It only takes something like this to remind that, whoops, still in the fringe of society. Rest of the world are conservative bastards.

Wow, was this what women faced in 1910s before they got the right to vote in the US? This constant back and forth, living in uncertainty of whether they had the rights or not. Ugh, if NY turns into another CA, how terrible is that? This is why federal legislation on marriage equality is important.

I hate this so much that it makes me sick. They are losing "critical protections" because marriage grants you another THOUSAND benefits more than civil partnerships.

Even as it makes me sick, I am going to have to watch as this turn ugly and difficult. And I thought Prop 8 was the only one. Maybe two cases will speed up the federal case, whatever the final verdict may be. I just hope that the Republicans aren't idiotic enough to try to bring back DADT.

I am running through the ways in which I can watch the Glee episode at the earliest moment, like maybe watching all the Kurt and Blaine edits first or something, because, NO, I don't want to seespoiler ). It will just make me angry, if the writing is terrible. And this is Glee, so the writing is probably going to be terrible.

STOP IT. I have a paper in two hours. Just get through that, get the episode, then think about when to watch it. Also, is this week hiatus for other shows? All my Monday shows are on hiatus. WEIRD.

You know that you are no longer a n00b at discussing and analysing television when you involuntarily notice things like clothing continuity, and they throw you off.

What am I to do with you, Glee? You get it so, so right sometimes, but at other times, you get it so so wrong. And you know what? You get it so wrong in a way that bypasses the minds of the casual viewers, but hurts your greatest fans.

I am way, way too tired to do an analysis now. Tomorrow, maybe.
