I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Linkee-poon has time sensitive material

Mer Haskell has a contest based around her new book where you can win some of her old books and, possibly, an ARC of her new book.

Jim Hines is auctioning off one of his Pose Calendars. When I looked at the post, it was already at $175.

The creative process and finding a way to monetize it. while this is mostly for comics, a lot of this goes for writing as we'll. (Grokked from Ferrett Steinmetz)

Some printing/publishing jargon explained. In case you're into that kind of stuff.

What would you do if your studio apartment had a dungeon attached? Well, not exactly a bat cave, but could be another secret hide-away. For some reason I'm now thinking of this guy hosting killer parties at the end of which his neighbors would be oddly reminded of a clown car as people left to go home. (Grokked from Jay Lake)

The Tea Party Insult Generator. That is an engine that generates insults you hear from TPers. (Grokked from the Slactivist)

Salon fact checks Sean Hannity on Obamacare. The reporter actually contacts Sean's guests to ask them other questions. Turns out most of them only got their information on Obamacare from Fox and the GOP (aka the echo chamber) and are responding to things they've heard there instead of actually finding out about their options and responsibilities. Gee, low information people interviewing other low information people. What a surprise. (Grokked from Jay Lake)
