I had a shitty day on several different levels today and was indulging in a bout of morose self-pity earlier this evening. Then I found these links on Twitter under the #iranelection hash tag and suddenly my ridiculously petty gripes seem so inane. Warning for graphic content in some of these.

I don't really know what to say other than those people walking through the streets have my utmost respect.
