I mean, you can argue that politicians can SAY whatever they want on their official campaign policy page, but Biden’s shift on LGBT policy is pretty well documented. 

Yeah, maybe don’t shit on someone’s political stances WHEN YOU HAVEN’T BOTHERED TO READ WHAT THEY CURRENTLY ARE?

Also. Raw bones here. If he’s actively pushing for laws that keep LGBATIQ folk from being discriminated against, laws protecting gay marriage and the right of same-sex couples to adopt, laws that make conversion therapy illegal and champion trans rights, do you truly care about what he might “really” think more than you care about all that? If he’s not letting any personal biases he MIGHT have impact the policies he’s encouraging congress to write and then agreeably signing into law?

You’re just going to look at all the bullshit Trump has pulled and say, “Well I’m not willing to risk that Biden doesn’t mean it what he says when he says he’s going to try to enact laws that will protect queer folk, so I’m fine sticking with a president who is actively out to destroy as many legal protections they have as possible” ???

“He’s taking a risk by publicly supporting a marginalized group, but he couldn’t possibly be serious. No, he’s just harming his chances for no reason, obviously! Now, time to throw away my vote and let the fascist guy turn the country into a dictatorship…”

yes hello hi! this is Joe Biden officiating a gay marriage. Joe Mahshie and Brian Mosteller, long time White House Staffers asked the then Vice President (this is 2016) to marry them. It was the first wedding (and only as far as I know) Biden had ever officiated, he had to get a special temporary certification to do it in DC. This picture (and the Wedding) is at the Naval Observatory in DC, the official home of the Vice President, to date there’s not be a gay wedding at the White House. 

Besides being a nice personal story there’s a reason Mahshie and Mosteller asked Biden to marry them. Joe Biden came out for gay marriage before Obama. In May 2012 Biden went on meet the Press and voiced support for gay marriage. It was the middle of an Election year, at that point NO! candidate for President or VP had ever supported full marriage. Obergefell v. Hodges which would legalize gay marriage nation wide was still 3 years away. Many in the Obama White House were enraged at Biden for “jumping the gun” and “forcing Obama’s hand” With his Vice President and running mate on the record as for gay marriage Obama had to also come out for gay marriage latter that same week. I don’t know what would have happened had Joe not told the truth on Meet the Press, but I think many Obama aids wanted to wait till after the election to say it publicly. 

#gee should i vote for the guy who was instrumental in passing same-sex marriage because he might be lying about supporting the rest of us?#or should i vote for the guy actively trying to repeal the protections we’ve already passed?#it’s a really tough decision guys :(

TIL Donald Duck is so loved in Scandinavian countries that in Sweden they had to make him illegal to vote for in political elections. In 2005 in Norway ¼ of the total population read the Donald Duck Magazine, and “Donaldism” became a thing.

Fun fact: Dolly Parton is not blonde. All her blonde dos are wigs. When she goes out with her husband, because he doesn’t want to be in the public eye, she has her real hair and wears more typical middle aged southern lady outfits and people just…. Don’t recognise her. She just Clark Kents her way into maintaining a private life.

She’s the real life Hannah Montana

Wasn’t she Hannah Montana’s aunt 😭?
