As some wise kitten once said, "I has an update". this one is about the Puritans.

I double-checked a fact for my site -- the one about legalization of homosexuality in Canada happening before Stonewall -- and I was astonished to see how close it was.

Bill C-150, better known as the Omnibus Bill, was given royal assent in the afternoon of June 27, 1969 -- the final rubber stamp before a bill becomes law. Late that night and early the next morning, the Stonewall Riots began, and with them the beginning of legalization of homosexuality in the US.

There must've been something in the air that day.

Other than that, I'm working full time this week, but anime night is still on for tomorrow. Mostly this week, though, I'm looking forward to the Pötterdamerung ^_^

Lol, took a moment till I got Pötterdämmerung... "Pötter? What the hell does he want with pots?"
:P

Would that I were able to claim credit for it. But, alas, the title is already floating around the internet.

Am I reading this wrong?

Nope. The GG decriminalizes homosexuality in Ottawa; that night, the Stonewall Riots break out in New York.

But this happened in 1969, not 2007, yes?

[montrealais.livejournal.com]

....yes. *blush*

Must be a typo.

The hazards of doing data entry every day. I keep putting this year's date after everything.
