Totally coincidental that I posted it on women's day but I wrote a post on the sad state of Iraqi widows.

Helen has a terrific International Women's Day piece: "International Women’s day: On being the Groke", on how making feminist noise is received by the masses. I'm playing with fluff: "Top 5 TV credits: What are your favourites?" and Dollhouse irritations: "Yet another Whedon peeve [1]: “What is that?

It's good reading! I also took part in local democracy/law (the post also mentions losing my wallet, and the incomparable Renegade Evolution's call for help) Finally, I admit to a shameful pleasure - the game show "Total Wipeout" on BBC1. My excuse is that they take the piss out of everyone equally...
