[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Mazel tov, guys. Maybe in celebration you could give up all your bad government ideas?
  • Colorado Governor Jared Polis married his longtime partner Marlon Reis on Wednesday; the ceremony was the first same-sex marriage of a sitting governor

  • Gov. Polis became the first openly gay man elected governor and the state's first Jewish governor when he was sworn into office in January 2019

  • The couple were married in a small traditional Jewish ceremony at the University of Colorado- Boulder in an event honoring their home state

  • Polis and Reis were married on the 18th anniversary of their first date

  • All guests were required to test negative before attending the outdoor event

  • Polis proposed to Reis in December wanting to give his children a happy memory before they drove Reis to the hospital due to his worsening COVID symptoms

#2 Yes. There is that stuff in Leviticus about lying with a man as one lies with a woman.

#7 Lost lines of the Llibre Vermell:
Themusic up here is okay,
But when I go home,
Nevermore shall I roam,
For, O Mary, this place is so gay!
