If you are a new visitor - welcome! - you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed. Thanks so much for visiting Jimboland Jots - the world from a freethinker, gay, green, radical, and American progressive worldview.
It is hard to be the one who is purposefully left out, to be excluded, to feel “less than” others, and relegated to some second tier of human citizenship. Americans get righteously - and rightly - upset about such things and lesbian and gay Americans - and our many and diverse friends - are very pissed off. We are getting angrier and rising up against seemingly endless waves of anti-gay marriage rights and anti-gay parent adoption laws in California, Florida, Arizona, and elsewhere in our fair country. Gay people have had it with such legalized and accepted bigotry.

Here are awesome photos and video of Saturday’s massive San Francisco protest for the civil right of gay people to marriage equality on 15 November 2008, part of 300 protest actions across the USA in what is being widely hailed as the 2nd Stonewall Movement.
America Begins to Revive and Create an Inclusive Nation

America just voted into office a visionary, educated, progressive Democrat for President: Barack Obama! He will be our first out bi-ethnic President, being of African and European (”white”) ancestry, and he represents the hopes, dreams, and lifetimes of work by generations of Americans from all walks of life. I am very proud that I voted for President-elect Obama, as did virtually all of my friends and family of creation in San Francisco. Last night, in the Castro - good old 94114 - the fabulous San Francisco Late Nite Coalition shut down the street and everyone celebrated this monumental and historic election.

Soldiers and Seamen and Leathermen and Hot Boys at Folsom Street Fair 2008
Filed under: art, fables of fabulous faggotry, friendship, gay culture, health and wellness, men's health, spirituality
Annually, San Francisco’s gay leather community and friends throw the world’s largest street fair dedicated to leather, sex and erotic fetishes, and classic fantasies: the legendary Folsom Street Fair, which turned 25 this year. I usually go and stay for as long as I can tolerate the mass of the crowds, which can get up to a few hundred thousand, and which covers 13 city blocks in the South of Market area, also known as SoMa. Although much of the event is meant to be provocative, I like going to see the creations people wear and celebrate with friends…then there are all of the sexy, hot men to see!
