Rainbows Are Forming Over Ireland After The Same-Sex Marriage Vote.

(THEY EVEN HAD A RAINBOW ON THE WEATHER FORECAST!!! ♥)


This Was The Happiest, Gayest, Greatest Night In Irish History

(I can't even.)

That's awesome! The stories of so many returning to vote was really inspiring. The turnout of young voters in the U.S. is always so low -- it's hard to imagine a similar effort here.

I saw the related story about the priest coming out and receiving a warm welcome from his congregation -- nice to see.

I think that's one of the things that makes it so special... People really cared.
