| Lancelot | hi everyone | 03:25 |
|---|---|---|
| valorie | hi Lancelot | 03:26 |
| Lancelot | how's it going? | 03:27 |
| valorie | it's good! | 03:29 |
| valorie | was at Pride for part of the weekend, sorta tired, but in a good way | 03:29 |
| * MarkDude watched the SF parade on tv - with his grandma | 03:30 | |
| valorie | how about you? | 03:30 |
| valorie | hey MarkDude | 03:30 |
| Lancelot | I'm good | 03:30 |
| MarkDude | hello valorie Lancelot , everyone | 03:30 |
| Lancelot | had fun at the jazz festival | 03:30 |
| Lancelot | ahoy thar | 03:30 |
| valorie | I was marching with PFLAG as usual, and it was sorta hot | 03:30 |
| valorie | gave out LOTS of hugs this year | 03:30 |
| Lancelot | ...? | 03:31 |
| valorie | SF Pride is the only one I would blow off Seattle for, though | 03:31 |
| valorie | the timing was so great this year; everybody was happy | 03:32 |
| MarkDude | The Sf party stretched beyond the city borders- most cities had some signs | 03:33 |
| valorie | nice | 03:33 |
| MarkDude | And every station played gay music | 03:33 |
| valorie | Lancelot: what's your question? | 03:33 |
| valorie | "gay music" | 03:33 |
| valorie | lol | 03:33 |
| MarkDude | Like stereotype stuff, that is actually popular | 03:33 |
| Lancelot | I was confused when you said you gave out lots of hugs | 03:34 |
| valorie | MarkDude and I are both straight, if you are wondering | 03:34 |
| valorie | I'm a PFLAG mom | 03:34 |
| MarkDude | YMCA, Raining men, etc. I kid you not- most people just had a really great sense of humor | 03:34 |
| valorie | usually Seattle PFLAG gives out round pink stickers which everyone wants, which say "You are loved by PFLAG" | 03:34 |
| valorie | I decided to just give hugs instead | 03:34 |
| MarkDude | Hugs are better than stickers | 03:35 |
| valorie | we gave out stickers as well | 03:35 |
| valorie | if you search flickr for Seattle Pride, you'll see lots of pix | 03:35 |
| valorie | or Seattle PFLAG | 03:35 |
| MarkDude | The hug thing- is a being supportive thing, basically, I don't care what your personal deal is, I accept you | 03:36 |
| MarkDude | Not to answer for you val | 03:36 |
| valorie | right you are | 03:36 |
| valorie | just people I felt wanted the hugs | 03:36 |
| MarkDude | lol | 03:37 |
| valorie | and a few whispered to me "how did you know I needed this?" | 03:37 |
| MarkDude | No forced hugging- of course | 03:37 |
| valorie | which makes me tear up | 03:37 |
| MarkDude | :) | 03:37 |
| valorie | all that lovin' is tiring though | 03:38 |
| MarkDude | Well it is important - more so in some cities. I have a friend that grew up in small town Nevada, she had never been in a place she could be herself | 03:38 |
| valorie | I came home and fell asleep last night | 03:38 |
| MarkDude | Sorry if I scared you with my Hippie talk Lancelot :) | 03:38 |
| valorie | we are changing the world, we are | 03:38 |
| * MarkDude kids | 03:39 | |
| valorie | freedom and love | 03:39 |
| valorie | we ARE hippies, without the weed | 03:39 |
| MarkDude | True valorie | 03:39 |
| valorie | at least most of us, without the weed | 03:39 |
| MarkDude | lol | 03:39 |
| * MarkDude is in Cali- I know law enforcement folks with medical cards | 03:40 | |
| MarkDude | Just sayin' | 03:40 |
| valorie | our med. marijuana law was gutted this year | 03:40 |
| valorie | so there are two legalization measures coming up | 03:40 |
| valorie | we'll see | 03:41 |
| valorie | Washington is progressive at times | 03:41 |
| MarkDude | Did you see that pic of Bert and Ernie saying Thank you New York? | 03:42 |
| valorie | that's one I haven't seen yet | 03:42 |
| valorie | I loved the Empire State building all rainbow | 03:42 |
| MarkDude | Sounds cool | 03:43 |
| MarkDude | I posted link on FB- I will send to you | 03:43 |
| valorie | thanks | 03:44 |
| MarkDude | Just sent it | 03:44 |
| MarkDude | I had someone give me a bad time for it | 03:44 |
| valorie | really? | 03:45 |
| MarkDude | I always thought they were gay heroes- to some extent, like Peppermint Patty | 03:45 |
| MarkDude | I mean to me I knew they were gay- before I knew what it meant | 03:45 |
| MarkDude | Then again, I went to I'm ok - You're ok preschool | 03:46 |
| valorie | right -- I'm not much into labeling, but on the other hand, I grew up before Stonewall, so I had very limited knowledge about the world | 03:46 |
| MarkDude | I think there is a certain amount of matter of fact with it. At least in the pond I am in | 03:47 |
| * MarkDude never uses gay as pejorative - just as adjective | 03:48 | |
| Lancelot | that's why we have the word "ghey" | 03:51 |
| Lancelot | it takes over the pejorative role | 03:55 |
| Lancelot | and everyone stays happy | 03:56 |
| valorie | right, I grew up in a fundamentalist right-wing pond | 03:56 |
| Lancelot | ish | 03:56 |
| valorie | since it sounds the same, it is the same, to me | 03:56 |
| valorie | better retired as an insult, all together | 03:56 |
| valorie | I prefer shakespearean insults when they are called for, anyway | 03:57 |
| valorie | more creativity, and more fun | 03:57 |
| MarkDude | +1 to the Bard | 04:02 |
| Lancelot | DID YOU JUST BITE YOUR THUMB AT ME!?!?!?!?! :p | 04:02 |
| MarkDude | lol | 04:02 |
| Lancelot | I forget the rest of the lines | 04:03 |
| Lancelot | something about "I will kill you all" if I remember correctly | 04:04 |
| MarkDude | first thing we do is kill all the lawyers has always struck me as a great line of his | 04:09 |
| MarkDude | Falstaff also made great impression on me as kid | 04:09 |
| valorie | why does this not surprise me? | 04:19 |
| valorie | lol | 04:19 |
| Lancelot | does anyone here use GNOME3? | 04:43 |
| * valorie uses Kubunut | 04:44 | |
| valorie | Kubuntu | 04:44 |
| Lancelot | I've been considering switching to KDE | 04:44 |
| valorie | cool | 04:44 |
| valorie | I'm looking forward to meeting lotsa Gnome people at the desktop summit this August | 04:44 |
| Lancelot | I'm just getting up to 11.10 | 04:44 |
| valorie | I like the people, just not the desktop | 04:45 |
| Lancelot | desktop summit? | 04:45 |
| valorie | http://desktopsummit.org | 04:46 |
| valorie | KDE & Gnome uber-meeting | 04:46 |
| valorie | KDE is sending me to Berlin | 04:46 |
| valorie | :-) | 04:46 |
| Lancelot | sounds fun | 04:47 |
| valorie | should be fun and work, which I love | 04:48 |
| Lancelot | what is it you do by the way? | 05:05 |
| Lancelot | I didn't get around to asking at linuxfest | 05:05 |
| Lancelot | I'll talk to you all later | 05:38 |
| Lancelot | bye | 05:38 |
