Surrounded by spoilers! Surrounded, I say! (but none here, I promise)

OK, a little while back I heard about this movie, Million Dollar Baby, staring Hilary Swank, Clint Eastward (sp?) and a bit of Morgan Freeman. I was Interested because of the whole female boxer thing, plus actors. I was much delighted to find that David Stratton gave it five stars, no less, in the Review on Saturday.

Today is Wednesday. I open the west australian (I'm not giving it the respect of italics or capital letters. I totally refuse). On page 3 there is a half-page article revealing not only the major twist/shock point, but also quite possibly the ending. This movie comes out tomorrow. No one has had a chance to see this yet. I am so totally Not Happy.

In better news, I did an inordinate amount of housework today -- the dishes *and* the vacuuming. Tomorrow I am going to attack the un-neatness of my bedroom floor, desk, and do something about the desktop computer that is now utterly not needed. ::pats laptop lovingly:: Note to self: remove all porn and slashy things before giving computer to dad.

Also I've made tentative beginnings on another fic (the dogtag fic, see here for background, not more amnesia fic. The medical stuff in the amnesia is confounding me atm). Am rather smug about that *G*

The Political Compass

This is intriguing

"On the standard left-right scale, how do you distinguish leftists like Stalin and Gandhi? It's not sufficient to say that Stalin was simply more left than Gandhi. There are fundamental political differences between them that the old categories on their own can't explain. Similarly, we generally describe social reactionaries as 'right-wingers', yet that leaves left-wing reactionaries like Robert Mugabe and Pol Pot off the hook"

It's not a meme, meaning there is no html C&P, which is annoying but I go the following results:

Economic Left/Right: -8.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.36

Basically means I'm very strongly economically left and a lot socially left. Go check it out :)
