sovay: (Sydney Carton)
And last night was consumed entirely by a medical emergency with Hestia, which as of this afternoon and an unnecessary garnish of shenanigans cautiously seems to be resolving, although you should picture that last sentence hedged around with all the apotropaic dicks in the world. I just want someone in this household to catch a break. Or sleep. Could be the same thing. Have some links.

1. Regardless of what it says about the evolution of classical poetry, I love not just the text of this poem but its status as a pop-cultural meme. I rather hope someone does set it to punk music.

2. Black Angel (1946) is one of the films for which I never expected anyone to write fanfiction other than technically me, but [personal profile] konstantya does and it's great.

3. I was going to link this interview with Judith Butler, but it turns out that in the time since I originally read it, the Guardian censored Butler's remarks on TERFs. Thanks to [personal profile] rydra_wong for the heads-up and the general internet for its archival instincts.

4. I feel like these lists of names should talk to one another. The fact that one was generated by a neural network and the other by a bunch of human friends makes surprisingly little difference. I can't decide if I am more entertained by Van Buren Gremlin or Proper Condom Richmond. Both remind me of the time one of my friend groups in college theorized the existence of the fictional bluesman Blind Lychee Fillmore.

5. Courtesy of a friend who is not on DW: quality cat content indeed.

I sort of have two secret projects now.
