Where the fuck is the frigging torrent??? It's 4:36!!! Usually I'm at least 10% into the dload at this point!!

If they screw up the upload of the finale, I'm gonna have to kill someone. SRSLY!

5.00: GOT IT!!! FINALLY!!! AGNHJDGFLUIEGFBQAEWI!!!

At this point, I feel the need to mention again how very fucking LUCKY you Americans are. All you need to do is watch the time and sit down in front of your TV and watch House to get your weekly fix. No staying up till 5am. No having to rely on some complete stranger to rip and upload the episode. No nail-biting while your download fluctuates AND FUCK MY DLOAD JUST DROPPED TO 20kb/s!!!!! NIGHTMARE! NUCLEAR DISASTER! APOCALYPSE!

45min later: I just drove from neery's place to my place, because my network seems to be faster than hers. At hers, it would have taken me another 5 hours to dload the ep! Now it's 6:20, I'm at home, and Azureus is dloading at about 200 kb/s. Housepiglet is also uploading the ep to Megaupload, in case my torrent decides to die on me. If this episode is not worth all this excitement, then I'm seriously gonna kill someone.

8:40: *YAWN* Anybody volunteering for being killed by me? I guess I'll have to kill someone, because while the ep was kinda nice, it wasn't worth all this excitement. Too tired to move, though...

9:00: Little add-on here. ( Spoilers )

Well. I don't like getting all worked up about stuff like this, because it's usually just not worth all the effort and broken keys on the keyboard. But this...

You probably all know about LJ deleting comms and personal journals. If not, check out ::this:: post on beandelphiki's journal - a good summary on what's going on.

Well. What I want to rant about are these so-called Warriors For Innocence. Because... WTF?

Take a look at their site

Paedophils and child abusers are sick people. NOT MONSTERS! With the right circumstances, anybody could have been a child abuser. I have some basic knowledge in this area, because I've always been very interested in the psychology behind pathologic serial killers, rapists and child abusers and have read a couple of books and thought about it quite a lot.

Child abusers have usually been victims themselves. This is not an excuse or a reason to let them get on with it, but calling them monsters and turning them into something that is not human is NOT the way to go about this business. Dealing with issues like this, the absolute most important thing is to stay objective and not judge the person that has committed the child abuse. Either, the person is sick and wants help - in this case, it's society's duty to provide this help to the best of their abilities - or the person is sick and doesn't want help - in this case, society's duty consists of making sure the person in question will never be in a position where they can hurt children.

Demonizing them is the most blind, idiotic and hypocritical thing a person can do. Because - what about the kids the glorious Warriors for Innocence couldn't save? The ones that were abused as young children and grow up to become child abusers themselves? At which point do they cross the border from being the poor little innocent kiddie that needs to be saved to the terrible, unspeakable, abominable monster that needs to be eliminated from society?
