Kait, don't read this one. It has Voldemort.

It only took two days for this week to be in the absolute pits (Long story: In short, don't use AT&T or UPS. Ever.) and two posts from the Dragon*Con Brittrack to make everything aaaaaall better.

First, John and Scott got legally married! And now, depending on how the heck the federal government decides to standardize the Supreme Court ruling, they'll be able to enter the U.S. in the same line at immigration. Awwwwww.

Second, and actually more shocking (what? John and Scott have been not-legally-married for years):

BURN GORMAN IS COMING TO DRAGON*CON.

*faints*

*squees*

*stops eating because if I want a picture with his skinny frame I need to not look like I could squish him*

…If Naoko ends up coming this year, it's going to be a complete Torchwood reunion. *can't handle the pressure*

HEY FLIST. Considering the massive amounts of Torchwood love this year, anyone interested in doing a meet-up at con? I was thinking Saturday night or Sunday. I can bring the unbridled enthusiasm!

I got a question...some years back I recall Barrowman saying that while he wanted the right to marry etc, he thought of it as a thing for straights. Did he talk about what changed his personal attitude anywhere?

Not as far as I know, although I haven't been following his interviews or anything very closely.

That said, I imagine some combination of getting older, living with his partner for years, the hassle of international travel as a gay couple and his loud (but completely nu-nuanced) public commentary on the state of gay marriage in the U.S.

Then again, I always thought their actual wedding was some sort of legal something (civil union? Do they have that in the UK?) so this might not be as radical as the internet is making it out to be?
