Things and stuff

I'm now less than 100 hours from freedom.

Good luck to everyone who needs it for various life-, health-, moving- and exam-related stuff, btw! *hugs*

My house plants are looking really rather green and vigorous these days. The ivy I impulse-bought over Easter seems to be really enjoying Life with Eni, the spider plant didn't have roots when I got it, and is now pot-bound for a second time and seems to just keep growing, and I think the devil's ivy has been slowly growing more and more leafy viney bits while I've been looking the other way. Oh, and after the Maranta's early setbacks it seems to have recovered and although it's not as bushy as when I bought it (I think), it's definitely not dying any more and is slowly growing back.

In other news, my printer is a moron. Yeah, if you're splurting out a document and the paper hits something gently, turning round and sucking the blooming sheet of paper back up is a really clever and obvious thing to do... *has to rescue another sheet of paper as printer tries to eat that one too*

Two things

This makes me...there are no words... Just...WTF? Someone please please tell me this is a hoax story. (Reuters link from gyre originally - got a link to an apparently Netherlands-based news site here as well though.)

There is now a politcal party in the Netherlands consisting of Dutch paedophiles.

I really cannot think of any way to express how much that makes me want to shut myself in a biscuit tin and never come out. Or possibly execute someone.

In more encouraging news, foreverdirt linked to this a while ago, and I was very very impressed with the campaign and have been meaning to reproduce the link on my own journal. Men Can Stop Rape posters. Coolness. Also, I really like the pictures of happy, nice people being happy and nice.
