No, not those, those are my time-travel trousers

1. My poem "Taking the Auspices" is now online at inkscrawl. The rest of the issue is impressive, too—selkies, Catullus, cities in translation.

2. I still don't know that I'm going to see Tomas Alfredson's Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy (2011), but I will take any excuse to read an interview with John Hurt, especially when he talks about weedkilling and Facebook: "I think people should be protected from being made to feel that they want to know what somebody famous had for breakfast."

3. Counteract Orson Scott Card; help rachelmanija list queer main characters in genre YA. Also, write Hamlet slash.

4. Courtesy of someone I met, appropriately, on Sunday at Tea: chap-hop.

5. lesser_celery and I are starting Millennium (1996–99) tonight.

Oh yeah: Season One also has an Internet-based episode in which technology has since advanced so far as to make the original premise seem ridiculously primitive. But that's one of the ways in which the series hearkens back to stuff like Twin Peaks--it's hovering on the edge of today's interstitial weirdness without having quite gotten there under its own steam. And any serial killer show episode that repeatedly quotes Gilbert and Sullivan is fine with me.

So far we've had Yeats and Auden; I'll take it.
