In case you didn’t click the buzfeed link earlier, this is 4 fantastic minutes of John Barrowman talking about how important marriage equality is to himself and Scott.
(now someone make a gif of him saying “I didn’t wake up one morning and go I think I’ll have eggs, bacon, coffee and I think I’ll be gay”?)
People do not realize how important this is for US-located folk who have international families.
#I GET WHY SOME WOULD RATHER FOCUS ON ISSUES RATHER THAN MARRIAGE #BUT AS AN AMERICAN WHO MARRIED AN INTERNATIONAL #LEMME TELL Y’ALL #THIS SHIT GIVES YOU NIGHTMARES #AND THE WHOLE TIME I JUST KEPT TELLING MYSELF #YOU MARRIED A CISGENDERED DUDE #REMINDING MYSELF OF THAT AND THE PRIVILEGE IT INVOKED #AND IT FELT BAD #REAL FUCKING BAD #AND THIS IS WHY I WILL STILL COMPLAIN AND ARGUE AND VOTE FOREVER #ON THE SUBJECT OF MARRIAGE EQUALITY #I KNOW IT’S NOT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING EVER #BUT YOU KNOW WHAT FUCK YOU #BECAUSE IT IS FUCKING IMPORTANT TO A LOT OF PEOPLE #REALLY FUCKING IMPORTANT

That’s actually genius.
Just a little note that’s like “I just want you to know that you’re awesome and amazing and I definitely DO NOT write scenes involving what Jack’s genitalia does with Ianto’s genitalia and you’re so cool”
lol, well mine would say more like “I write stories about you having adventures with River Song and definetly nothing about you banging 2/3s of the main cast of supernatural”

OMG NO THAT’S GREAT and wait i just checked nd oh dear im gonna do a dual photo op with john and gareth HELLS YEAH
see now I’m jealous. I just get John. But if I think meeting John is going to kill me, meeting both at the same time would surely do me in.

Good luck! I’m fairly certain they’d think I was either having a stroke or developmentally challenged.
I’ve seriously considered just writing down anything I want to say and just handing it to him. I told roommate we should get the autograph on Saturday so I can meet him BEFORE the photo op so I can get my squeeling out ahead of time.
The very few times I’ve met a celebrity my instinct is to turtle. So i just clam up and stare. (which is funny, as usually I’m a complete chatterbox)

Which is why I could never, ever meet either him or GDL, because all I would be able to think about is the number of times I’ve written about what they’ve got in their trousers.
See, that’s where I guess I’m lucky, as I haven’t written a lot of torchwood fanfic. Now, if I ever meet Benedict or Martin, THEN I’m in trouble.
Of course I have *read* a crapton of torchwood fanfic, so there is that…
I’m probably going to be a gibbering mess anway, which is why I’m going armed with awesome roommate.
