This makes me ill in more than one way.
The mother and brother of a 14-year-old Afghan rape victim face charges after they cut her open and removed her foetus without anaesthetic, it has been reported.
... They actually cut her open. Tied up in a barn. While she was fully conscious and aware. And this, to them, is honourable. I think I'm gonna be sick.
That poor girl. Get raped at 14 and then your family does that to you. I just have no words. This week is not doing much for my faith in humanity, I have to say.
In other stuff:
- If you're really hungry for a buger, a new deal offers you one free for defriending ten people on Facebook. I see drama potential in that one all right.
- Doctor Who fandom - persistent troll is at large. Keep your IP tracking on.
- An anthropology professor at the University of Hawaii is doing research into World of Warcraft. His comments about WoW are pretty interesting, and I'd totally read a book of his. Though going from living two years in Papua New Guinea to raiding hardcore in WoW must be some contrast.
- LJ offers an explanation for the latest stuff. Hurr.
- An interesting look at what happened to FanLib. I remember some of the wank when FanLib first launched, but I'd failed to notice it had died to Disney's touch.
- LESS THAN A WEEK TO NEW BSG. I'm not sure if I'm more excited or scared for what's to come.
- Life on Mars is reairing on Norwegian telly and I'd forgotten how awesome it is. Why haven't I bought the DVDs? Hmm. Must aquire that and Hustle. My poor already overflowing DVD shelves...
That meme everyone is doing:
MAH ICONS.
HOW MANY ICONS DO YOU HAVE: 178
OUT OF HOW MANY AVAILABLE ICONS SPACES: 195
IF YOU COULD BUY SPACE FOR MORE, WOULD YOU: Not currently, ask me again in two fandoms
DO YOUR ICONS MAKE A STATEMENT: They're more of the things I like than anything else, not sure there's much statement in that
WHAT FANDOM DO YOU HAVE THE MOST ICONS OF: BSG
AND THE SECOND MOST: Doctor Who (BSG beat it by one single icon)
WHAT SHIP DO YOU HAVE THE MOST ICONS OF: Adama/Roslin
ARE YOUR ICONS MADE MOSTLY BY OTHER PEOPLE: Yes
DO YOU MAKE ICONS: Very rarely
ARE THEY ANY GOOD: Bah
ANIMATED ICONS ARE: Sometimes good, mostly not
DO THE MEME.
