It starts at daylight

gaudior and rushthatspeaks along with the rest of Sassafrass are running a Kickstarter to cover the production costs of their latest album and its live performance at Balticon. You should donate. I've been watching Rush sew their fingers off for most of this week in order to have everyone properly costumed in time for the show and I'd kind of prefer their fingers not to have died in vain. I liked them. Also, if the project meets its stretch goals, papersky will write a publicly available poem for Odin and a privately shared one for Loki, and I can't imagine who doesn't want to read those. Plus, Futhark posters.
2.derspatchel trekked into darkness last night and didn't much like what he found there. For this reason I believe we are rewatching a certain other film in the canon tonight.
3. Falling asleep last night, I found myself thinking about a Shakespearean theater company—not a theater company that performs Shakespeare, but a company made up of Shakespeare's characters. Hamlet is plainly a writer-director, though if he thinks it's going to be all fucked-up family psychodrama all the time, he hasn't talked much to Peter Quince. (Rosencrantz and Guildenstern want to do more experimental projects. They'll probably spin off their own black box.) Get Feste for the music and Prospero for lighting and sound design. Viola specializes in juvenile leads. Honest Iago is very good at heroes. I didn't get very far, because I was very tired and it kept bleeding off into other dreams, and then I spent too much time staring at the ceiling this morning when the sunlight woke me around seven o'clock and I couldn't get back to sleep until ten. Someone on Yuletide has probably already written this anyway. (It's like bandfic, only not with bands.) Or Jasper Fforde got there first and I should not try to think about it.
I hope to visit a library sale this afternoon.

. . . I would totally watch Benedict Cumberbatch play Tig Vesicle. The skinny, red-headed, weird-boned relevance just struck me.
(I'm not sure you could make a movie of Light, but if anyone ever attempted it, I think that's my fantasy casting. Besides, I've never seen Cumberbatch do physical comedy, and Tig setting his coat sleeves on fire from scaring off the Cray sisters with the Hi-Lite is definitely that.)

I don't know if you've read The Centauri Device, but he'd also be great as one of the anarchist-aesthetes, too.

I still haven't! I'm missing that and Climbers! Of which I really want the new edition, for all the obvious reasons.
