Welcome to the Legion!

Today … pardon me while I stop happy crying for a moment … okay, today the Supreme Court passed the Marriage Equality law. Everyone has the right to get married! My Facebook and Twitter feeds are full of rainbows and happiness and I’ve only had to ban one person for posting homophobic comments! I knew all my friends would be celebrating, but, silly as this sounds, I was surprised about how many giant companies are tweeting and posting about it! There is a great list here, but I’ll post a couple below. It’s pretty damn awesome.

Ben & Jerry’s, the architect of my future weight gain just created a flavor to celebrate the landmark decision. “I Dough, I Dough,” as well as posting a wonderful “Love is Love” video, which I’ve included here.

Ben & Jerry’s wrote this:

“Across the country and around the globe, the movement for marriage equality is on an unstoppable roll, generating history-making victories, game-changing wins and growing waves of public support for legalizing same-sex marriage everywhere.

“With this ruling, the SCOTUS recognizes the bond of love and commitment between two people, and protects the fundamental rights and freedoms that come with it.

“To celebrate the occasion, and the countless citizens who’ve worked so hard to make it happen, we’re honorarily renaming our Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough ice cream I Dough, I Dough for the summer, at participating Ben & Jerry’s Scoop Shops nationwide.”

I Dough, I Dough can also be purchased online through the Human Rights Campaign.

My heart is full. #LOVEWINS
