baby, don't even come near me with that napkin.

first. fiction_theory has a really excellent post on the cost of art- a comparison between Erykah Badu and Amanda Palmer. trigger warning applies!

second. poem for today, since i can't figure out how to preserve the formatting: Why I Crave Ribs Tonight, by Aimee Nezhukumatathil (why yes, it is almost lunchtime :P). link has text and audio versions!

third. fighting to keep my surprise!Peter plotbunny from eating my braaaaain; this is not going very well. /o\ (i have chromaticizing thoughts in my head! they are very distracting! asd;flkajsdgasdf) anybody open to bouncing ideas around with me at, er, some point? possibly even this week, if i can meet my freaking personal deadlines for once.
