(no subject)

Sometimes I stop reading or watching things when I get up to the first example of a woman being sexually assaulted or mutilated. I've just ejected the DVD of Experiment in Terror about five minutes in, although I did manage to sit through all the heavy breathing, groping, and rape threats. I also didn't continue past chapter one of River of Gods for this reason. It's not a hard and fast rule - I did keep going after hitting the (as it turned out, wholly gratuitous) sex-mutilation-murders in Greg Bear's Slant. But there are an awful lot of books to read and films to watch. Besides, as I sometimes say: if I really want that sort of thing, I can always switch on the news.

Two random things

The Roast Beef Decision-Making Flow Chart will make you laugh if you have depression. Seriously.
