This also means that search engines such as "Google", "Yahoo", "bing", etc are also liable to being shut down. "Youtube" is also in the brink of getting shut down if these acts are passed, since this website "shares" copyrighted videos from big music companies.
These acts are currently shelved in the concerned governments involved (US Congress and the EU, albeit some Asian countries has signed for these bills, i.e. Japan)

This is shitty. But this is also my fault. If I hadn't gotten myself drunk that night, I wouldn't be in this predicament.
I know I'm wrong, so please don't tell me that I'm stupid and such. Or that I'm horrible... Please, I need your advice! =(
I don't know what to do anymore!

Without further ado, here are my one-shots:
Title: A Visit Before Marriage
Genre: Romance
Rating: T
Pairing: One-sided!TsuraraxRikuo, implied!RikuoxKana
Summary: There was no one much more important to her than her Master, the one she drank sakazuki with, the one she swore her life to protect. But he has someone who he deemed most important person in his. Oneshot.
Warning: If you don't like RikuoxKana, you'd better not click it, and just go on with the other fic...

Title: A Thousand Words
Genre: General/Romance
Rating: T
Pairing: Rikuo/Tsurara
Summary: Rikuo, as a youkai, had no problem whatsoever in talking it out with a certain little lady, but as a human, well, he'd bet his Nenekirimaru that he could say a thousand words, and yet, couldn't get the message across. ONESHOT

And I have this odd feeling that the Earl might just be... Mana Walker. For some unknown reason. =/ This of course, is bullshit, cause... there's no way that the Earl would be Mana Walker since, y'know, Allen made Mana into an akuma... >__>
Ah, well, whatever.

lavenderfrost at ...WTF.Well, there goes my good mood for the day.
NYTimes, the bastion of quality reporting, reported on the gang-rape of an 11 year-old girl in Texas that's led to charges against 18 high-school boys so far - all well and good so far, right? Shit like this NEEDS publicity to raise awareness.
Only problem is, they repeated - without refutation or critical commentary - the claims that the girl brought the rape on herself because of the way she was dressed.
Choice Quotes (No cut b/c everyone needs to see this - DEAL.):
“It’s just destroyed our community,” said Sheila Harrison, 48, a hospital worker who says she knows several of the defendants. “These boys have to live with this the rest of their lives.” As opposed to the victim, who's gonna bounce back lickety-fucking-split, right?
Residents in the neighborhood where the abandoned trailer stands — known as the Quarters — said the victim had been visiting various friends there for months. They said she dressed older than her age, wearing makeup and fashions more appropriate to a woman in her 20s. She would hang out with teenage boys at a playground, some said. TOTALLY BEGGING FOR IT.
THIS IS RAPE CULTURE, PEOPLE.
Now, what's being said and done in this community is bad enough, but the NY Times should be fucking ashamed of themselves right now.
