Happy Mardi Gras, especially with Pell gone! Hurrah!
- I'm now putting my Glee Squee posts up under this tag at my tumblr. Mainly cause I can't be bothered screen-capping anymore. And because there's more fandom on tumblr than on LJ these days.
- If you can't make it to Sydney, Australia, in the next two hours to watch the Mardi Gras, it will be broadcast online worldwide by SBS 2 tomorrow. My brother's going with his friends. I'm staying home where it's warm and dry, and I'll watch it on TV tomorrow.
- March in March for a vote of no confidence in Tony Abbott's government. As if any of us here had any confidence in his government in the first place, but this is the legal, official expression of despair and hopelessness and garment rending.
- The rise of torture on television.
One major difference that jumps out when you compare them is the huge amount of torture that happens in Fringe compared to the X-Files.
- On the one hand, the fact that Cardinal George Pell will head the economic and administrative affairs of the Vatican is a huge promotion. On the other hand, he goes to Rome and we (in Australia) finally get rid of him! Instead of him raising our ire in the public eye, he gets an administrative job, or as I like to think of it, confined to an office.
Now... anyone have any ideas on how we can get rid of Fred Nile or Tony Abbott while we're at it?
