A Good News-Day
Today was a Good News-Day™. By this I mean that the news headlines of this particular day seem to indicate that the world as a whole might be improving, if even just a little bit. Which is unusual, of course. Because the world is shitty.
But not today. No, today brings us a scant but pleasant pair of newsitems. First, we have word that "Spain takes lead in closing down the websites that tell girls it's good to be anorexic":
Health authorities in Madrid have acted to close a pro-anorexia website, accusing it of endangering the lives of teenage girls.Four months after the city led the world in the Size 0 debate by banning ultra-skinny models from its catwalks, health officials are shining the spotlight on the growing number of “pro-ana” websites that glorify starvation diets.
Wow. Just wow. But it gets better.
The regional government has asked a judge to determine whether the owners are criminally liable for the content.
CRIMINALLY. LIABLE. It does seem to me that the spaniards just might be in possession of the only government on the planet which actually utilizes its resources to consider legislations with the citizenry in mind. *cough*. Bravo. Go Spain. Keep being... Spanish.
The other piece of good-news-day-news is titled, "Neo-Nazi leader arrested on child porn charges".

"Kevin also used to say that the only sport he was interested in was nymphet baseball, whatever that means."
Um. Yeah. In any case, this is the organization our friend Kevin represented. Feel free to visit and check the site out. You can draw your own conclusions regarding their stance. Don't worry, no one will be watching.
