Busy

Yeah, um, I’m like busy and stuff at present, trying to increase the too-small distance between thisself and the poverty line by (temporarilly, for now) working for The Man. While also keeping up with my usual drip of freelance clients. As Richard Morgan expressed it:

Freelancing requires such strict adherence to toadyism, to sycophancy, to the grubbiest, lowliest submissions. It is an on-spec life and it is full of what can only be described as insane serendipity (or serendipitous insanity).

But I hate to disappear completely. (Everyone else already has; if I go as well then who will belabor the obvious? Plus, the site is actually working for once; I almost feel obligated to take advantage!) So I’m going to share this cartoon I came across, from something calling itself xkcd:

Table illustrating the faults in various sketchy phenomena

Well played.

Namaste.

    Yes. Glad you brought that to my attention.

    Life has generally been such, of late, that I suppose my motivation to drink myself into utter oblivion and/or crawl under the covers and curl up in a fetal position really needed a bit of renewing.
