Things that are just freaking me out.
1. Was randomly lurking about on Twitter yesterday when I heard about the Daniel Tosh incident. For those not in the know...brace yourself. Link's right here, in case you're wondering: http://breakfastcookie.tumblr.com/post/26879625651/so-a-girl-walks-into-a-comedy-club
Basically, Daniel Tosh was, during his stand-up routine, talking about how funny rape jokes were, how rape jokes could never be, for lack of a better word, not funny, and when an audience member called him out on it, he started going on about how funny it would be if she was gang-raped by a bunch of people. Which...*Sighs* You never wish gang rape upon another person. You simply don't. It's just...horrible. I -- urgh.
2. And on another note, the official policing of the Internet is starting tomorrow. Fortunately, there are ways to appeal and thus get around all this (and the article I linked earlier has some tips to avoid it, I believe), but even so, I'll admit I'm afraid. *Sighs* I swear our government's turning into a police state day by day.
Honestly, I think this Youtube clip sums up how I feel right now: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKA_Jxe_7m8.
