Pardoned

I missed this news earlier in the week, but Alan Turing has been pardoned. Yeah, it's many years overdue, and the article touches on the fact that lots of other men were convicted under the same law and should be pardoned too. But overall I think the pardon is a good thing, and I'm also cheered up by the gay couples getting married in Utah lately. I hope the eventual court ruling goes their way, and that more states make it legal soon.

I'm trying to catch up on news lately but American news is so insular and focused on silly controversies. I have to watch BBC News to get any idea of what's going on in the world. Well it's past Christmas already and I'll try to look forward to the New Year. Got to get some writing done, and then tomorrow I'll finally see the finale episode of Nikita. I hope it's good.


Edit: Just read some SPOILERS about Moriarty on Elementary. I expected this all along, but was dreading when it would happen. Clearly I won't be watching it. I've had my fill of idiot writers ruining Irene Adler and making her a fucking psychopath. Read the damn story, you wankers!
