Reposting this from the old thread, since it was only there for a few hours.
I mentioned a while back that I'd written a short horror story for "Queers Destroy Horror", and that it was rejected. Well, I'm still sad about that, but I figured I should post it online anyway, because I still feel pretty proud of it. The main characters are sisters of color, trick-or-treating on Halloween, when they come across a mysterious stranger...
Title: The Devil Makes Three
Word Count: 6002
Warnings: Character death (nothing graphic), general creepiness.
Summary:
"He'll give you anything you want. Anything. In exchange."
"In exchange for what?"
"In exchange for you."

Reading Japanese articles that are covering this issue, it's kind of bemusing how randomly it happened and how it happened with so little fanfare. The article's commentary on how the LGBTQ community interacts with the rest of society is also pretty spot on.
I wouldn't be surprised if other municipalities will probably take this up because tax revenue is nice, and this is something else that will help with that. Similarly, I wouldn't be surprised if Chiba and Kanagawa (by far the most progressive Japanese prefectures) will probably make same-sex marriage official (with all benefits) in the near future because again, taxes.
I find it interesting that the religious angle is not mentioned here. I can't speak for Shintoism because that religion's one of the most random, inconsistent belief systems with heavy involvement from corporate and nationalist interests. Buddhism in Japan, on the other hand, generally doesn't have a strong official stance on same-sex marriage because they...just don't? At least from Buddhism's perspective...since, ideally, everyone joins a monastery and achieves enlightenment after abandoning all their earthly ties...who marries who is not really the religion's concern. For that reason, there are Buddhist temples in Japan that will conduct same-sex marriage ceremonies (not legally binding, well, outside Shibuya as of now).

I've never done anything with beans before. I bought a can of black beans, and want to heat them and eat them. Three questions then.
1) Should I drain the can?
2) Should I rinse the beans after I drain the can?
3) When I put them in a pot on the stove to heat them, am I supposed to add any liquid to the thing, or just the canned beans?
Thanks!
