House Republicans filed their first brief in the Windsor case today, blasting the Obama administration for abdicating its responsibility to defend DOMA in court. Their basic argument seems to be that heterosexual marriages can produce unintended and unplanned offspring, which same-sex marriages cannot do. So they're seriously arguing that random babies make a marriage?

Prop 8 supporters also filed their first briefs, and their argument seems to be that it's basically none of the Supreme Court's business. "Our Constitution does not mandate the traditional gendered definition of marriage, but neither does our Constitution condemn it. This Court, accordingly, should allow the public debate regarding marriage to continue through the democratic process, both in California and throughout the Nation."

And President Obama feels that marriage equality is a state's rights issue and not one for the federal government. Which has some people outraged, but isn't that really the basis for our challenges to DOMA?

Sony Pictures Classics has acquired the rights to the Daniel Radcliffe starrer Kill Your Darlings. Meanwhile Radcliffe is very excited about his kiss with Dale DeHaan. "Dane and I are banging the drum already because we want the MTV Best Kiss award. We want that golden popcorn! To my knowledge, a sincere, passionate, romantic gay kiss has never won, so I think that would be a very cool thing for this movie to receive." He also talks about the direction he got for the sex scene. "I guess I was way too ! hesitant ! about it in the moment, and John just went, 'No! Kiss him! F*cking sex kissing!' That was my favorite note that I've gotten, probably in my career. [Laughs.] Especially with the world that Ive come from! The things that directors have shouted to me in the past usually involve which way I have to look to see the dragon."
