What is this?
Live Long And Marry is a fandom auction to benefit marriage equality. Bidding begins on July 1, 12:01 AM one minute after midnight Pacific Time, 2008, and closes on July 15, 12:01 AM one minute after midnight Pacific Time, 2008. Please do not bid until bidding opens.
What's the cause?
The auction will raise money for the fight against the California initiative which will legally destroy existing same-sex marriages and ban any further ones. If the initiative passes, it will write discrimination into the state constitution, annull existing marriages, and make Mr. Sulu cry.
How can I help?
You can bid on fanfic, original fic, vids, cookies, memorabilia, critique/betas, and much more! Or you can offer your skills and services as a writer, vidder, baker, knitter, or whatever else you'd like.

I love that pics. collage at the top of this post! Very cool! So is the concept of this auction!
I love the concept as well, its an honor system but hopefully it generates some money for the cause =)
I am continually amazed that people think they should be able to "vote" on the rights of their fellow citizens! Wasn't that eliminated by the Emancipation Proclamation? Correct me if I am wrong..... If given a VOTE? How many rights would "other" groups have now?
larry - i completely concur which is why i think we need the courts to protect the will of the minority.
