Hey Washington, Haaaaaay! If all goes according to plan, Washington could be the next U.S. state to legalize same-sex marriage. Last night, the Senate voted 28-21 to pass the bill, and word on the street is that the House of Representatives will approve it within the next week.

Start preparing your victory dances in advance, Washingtonians! Woot woot.

Awhile back, head celebrity supercouple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie declared that they wouldn’t make their union official until every gay person in the U.S. of A could get legally married. This was a nice gesture (fuck, my straight friends never even gave it a damn thought when THEY got married pre-it being legal here in Mass.) but then he went and made himself a lie-teller!

From his interview with The Hollywood Reporter:

“We’d actually like to,” he says of his seven-year partner, Jolie, “and it seems to mean more and more to our kids. We made this declaration some time ago that we weren’t going to do it till everyone can. But I don’t think we’ll be able to hold out. It means so much to my kids, and they ask a lot. And it means something to me, too, to make that kind of commitment.” Has he asked Jolie to marry him? “I’m not going to go any further,” says Pitt. “But to be in love with someone and be raising a family with someone and want to make that commitment and not be able to is ludicrous, just ludicrous.”

I’m choosing to read that last sentence as railing against the fact that gays can only get married in a tiny amount of states, not whining that he can’t put on a tux again and walk his corpse bride down the aisle because of his previous declaration.

Honestly, shit changes. If he wants to avoid a teachable moment with his needy ass child brigade (“Why Mommy and Daddy can’t get married because their gay friends can’t…”) so they can be ring-bearers and flower girls – it’s fine. I’m more concerned with the fact that goblin Jonah Hill got nominated for an OSCAR. AN OSCAR. Tilda Swinton, Michael Fassbender, and Patton Oswalt are roaming around feeling unloved and the star of Night At The Museum: Battle Of The Smithsonian got a fucking Oscar nod. Die, Hollywood, Die!

Manhunt Daily will be closed in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day with a regular flow of posts kicking off tomorrow morning. Please take a moment to silently reflect on this great man’s life. All in all, we encourage you to enjoy the day off in your own special way. Wink wink, nudge nudge.

No, but really! Let’s not forget what this day is really all about. It may seem like we’ve come a long way since 1963 (when King made his famous “I Have A Dream” speech), but there’s still far too much racism and injustice in the modern-day world. How will you contribute toward making King’s dream come true? If he were alive today, do you think he’d support the gay rights movement? Discuss!

Aside from those of you who enjoy our Bi The Way series—for reasons unrelated to all the flopping hard dicks—the woman in this video probably won’t appeal to the majority of Manhunt Daily readers. That said, a few of them are pretty fucking hot, and they could potentially get a straight dude popping a semi*.

Then, right when these ladies got him where they want him, they’ll question his masculinity and tell him to stop being such a homophobic dickhead. It makes sense. Plenty of our female friends refuse to date a man if he’s not down with the gays… So why haven’t our heterosexual brethren gotten this through their thick skulls yet?
