Greetings, Persephoneers. My deadline didn’t quite catch the amazing news last Friday that the US Supreme Court declared marriage equality to be the law of the land, but with the whole of the Internet exploding in rainbows and discussion, let’s move on to what’s next in the fight for LGBTQ equality:
The Eurovision will be a bit more awesome this year, because Australia will send a participant. We’re all Europe now!
This week in Europe, all eyes are on Greece and its new government.
I know! Not fair. (But hey, it’s good news for some women, just not me.)
